Synopsis
This practical resource details the process of creating an inclusive, collaborative community of learners and teachers at the secondary level. Teachers and administrators will find suggestions for making scheduling changes to create common planning time, redefining staff roles to reflect shared responsibility for all students, and designing inclusive curriculum units and lessons. Vignettes, photographs, and lesson plans show how practices such as self-determination, community-based learning, and planning for the postgraduation years work in general education environments. With ideas for designing and adapting programming for their own classrooms, this book gives educators the means to offer every student the social and academic experiences of high school.
