Coteaching is two or more teachers teaching together, sharing responsibility for meeting the learning needs of students and, at the same time, learning from each other. Working as collaborators on every aspect of instruction, coteachers plan, teach and evaluate lessons together. Over the past decade, because coteaching can be highly beneficial to both students and teachers it has become an increasingly important element of science teacher education and is expanding into other content areas and educational settings. This edited book brings together ten years' work on the research and the...

This book is for practicing science and math educators and researchers, including graduate students, science and math teachers, and other teachers interested in developing a sound theoretical and empirical basis for curriculum development and instruction grounded in what is known about how the brain works and develops.

The Neurological Basis of Learning, Development and Discovery is unique in that it
*links neural physiology and neural network theory with cognition and instructional practice;
*grounds the current emphasis on inquiry and constructivism in epistemological,...
