Discussion Panel on Co-Teaching, Moderated by John Hayward, Naperville Central High School

Co-teaching is becoming a widespread practice to improve student performance. While collaboration is universally considered virtuous, teachers can be territorial in their lessons, with their students, and in their pedagogical judgments. Participants will be asked about their experiences co-teaching. How do co-teachers manage the division of teaching duties? What challenges have teachers experienced and how did they overcome them? What aims has co-teaching accomplished; which aims has co-teaching fallen short in achieving?

Panelists: Brittany Neil, Round Lake Senior High; Katherine Cole, Round Lake Senior High School; Alyssa Staley, Carbondale Middle School; Genevieve Sherman, Zion-Benton Township High School; Kathryn Hoving, Hampshire High School; Kimberly Millard, Hampshire High School
