Industry Reviews

"It's a professional and personal privilege to endorse Collaborative Teaming, Third Edition by Rachel Janney, Ph.D., Margaret E. King-Sears, Ph.D., and Martha E. Snell, Ph.D. These outstanding researcher-teachers have added many features that readers will appreciate: focus questions to guide reading, student snapshots to emphasize the child-centered nature of the reason educators collaborate, checklists and other devices to monitor our progress, diagrams to help remember key elements, and voices from the classroom to signal the viability of teachers' use of the strategies. The authors have been careful to document their knowledge claims with up-to-date research, a valuable asset in this era of evidence based accountability." --Dr. Ann Nevin
