 * RESOURCES which the Research Group found and can't use since there's no empirical research:**

 In a study investigating co-teaching in high schools in the US and Australia, Rice and Zigmond (2000) found similar themes across both countries. These themes addressed philosophical and implementation aspects of co-teaching. However, since no student outcome data were collected, this study is located in this section, Resources, rather than the Research Team tab.

 Ploessl, Rock, Schoenfeld, and Blanks (2010) describe practical approaches for co-teaching involving communication, preparation, instruction, and resolving conflicts.

 Stuart, Connor, Cady, and Zweifel (2006) offer ‘nuts and bolts’ details about their successful co-teaching in grades 1-3.

This article contains results of a qualitative study by Liston (2004) in which co-teachers at a high school were interviewed. "Six 'best practice' themes emerged...: a) administrative support, b) ongoing professional development, c) collaboration, d) communication, e) instructional responsiveness, and f) expanded authentic assessment approaches. =_________________= =**Publications**=
