This production provides a comprehensive framework for administrators, teachers and staff developers to build an effective schoolwide approach that focuses on "service" rather than "location" in teaching special education students. Using clips from actual classrooms. the framework takes on additional meaning as its main features are seen "in action." This is true theory in practice and includes reference to RTI.
The viewer will, by watching the video be able to:
~ Understand the concept of a "whole school" approach to inclusion
~ Recognize the value that an effective school-wide approach has on all students
~ Observe best inclusionary practices, based upon experience and current research that support growth of all students
~ Identify the components of effective co-teaching, and be familiar with print resources from the manual that support on-going development of collaborative teams
~ Recognize that inclusive environments support the needs of a diverse learning community, such as ELL, at risk, etc.
~ Identify roles of all stakeholders in the implementation of a whole school approach
