WHAT IS CO-TEACHING
“when two or more professionals jointly deliver substantive instruction to a diverse, or blended group of students in a single physical space” (Cook and Friend, 1995).

STYLES OF CO-TEACHING Bauwens and Hourcade (1991)
1. One teach, one support --One person assumes primary
instructional responsibility while the other adult assists students with work, monitors behavior, and corrects assignments. (This approach is most successful when it is used on an occasional basis in conjunction with the other approaches.)
![Page 9: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2. Station teaching
--Curricular content is divided into two parts. One person teaches the first part to half the students and the other professional presents the second part to the other half. The two student groups then switch.
![Page 10: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3. Parallel teaching --Students are divided into
heterogeneous groups in which each student has more opportunity to participate in discussions. Different types of presentations are structured to accommodate the various student learning styles.
![Page 11: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
4. Alternative teaching
--Students are divided into two groups, and one person instructs one group while the other person pre-teaches the other group for the lesson to follow or re-teaches material using alternative methods.
![Page 12: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
5. Team teaching-- Both professionals share leadership and are equally engaged in instructional activities. They might role play, stage debates, or model note-taking strategies. (Friend & Bursuck, 1999, pp. 82-85)

The Stages of the Co-teaching Process
COLLABORATING STAGE
COMPROMISESTAGE
BEGINNING STAGE
Give and take communication / more active role of “special” educator / increased level of trust and social relationship
Careful Communication / Boundaries developing / Feelings of Intrusion / Very defined roles
*Teachers may get stuck at this level.
Open communication / changing roles / use of humour / mutual respect / “flexible equality”

COMPLEMENTING EACH OTHERS STRENGTHS
![Page 16: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“I have a good friend (co-teacher) and we share all the time. She rocks at assessment I rock at presentation. We meld our lessons and constantly trade information and lesson plans. What comes out in the end is great lessons and great assessment.”
![Page 17: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Benefits of Co-teaching
better student to teacher ratio and more individual attention (especially helpful to lower level students.).
a wider use of instructional techniques, to better student learning
more and better critical, planning and reflective practices by teachers
social skills improvement / better classroom management.
a more “community” oriented classroom increased score results.
![Page 18: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
TEACHER BENEFITS
Teacher training in-house. The Korean English Teacher betters their own language skills while teaching.
Both teachers develop new instructional techniques while teaching and sharing.
New teachers can be given guidance and mentoring.
Effective modeling for students.
NESTs > less cultural adaptation.
![Page 19: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
3 Main Misperceptions
1. The foreign expert. Foreign teachers are viewed as “all
knowing”. This creates an imbalance in the classroom and eventually resentment. There must be a shared power in the classroom. There is no expert or rather, a Native expert and a Foreign expert. Each have their particular skills and experience and relevance.
Sturman, P., (1992), Team Teaching: A case study from Japan, Collaborative Language Learning and Teaching, Cambridge University Press, Nunan, D., 149-150
![Page 20: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2. The “walking tape recorder”. In this case, the Korean teacher feels that the foreign teacher lacks instructional skills and uses the NEST as a kind of puppet, only good for pronunciation and laughter, cultural communication.
![Page 21: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3. The “token foreigner”.
Here, the NEST is only there to give the school pride as being progressive. They aren’t used as teachers. They are just a symbol of being “international” and progressive.
![Page 22: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
RECOMMENDATIONSSUGGESTIONS
• Promote and educate teachers and schools about the value and benefits of co-teaching. Teachers must know WHY they are co-teaching.
• Hold mandatory workshops for co-teachers. Especially prior to the school year. Also social outings to foster their relationship.
![Page 23: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Have all co-teachers complete a questionnaire and discuss fully prior to teaching together. Also, give adequate scheduling and planning time for weekly co-teaching meetings.
• Educate teachers about the co-teaching options they have. There are many different kinds of co-teaching.
• Korean co-teachers MUST be in the classrooms with NESTs during lessons.
![Page 24: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Allow for no more than 3 co-teachers / NEST. Preferably schools should provide an English only classroom and teachers shouldn’t have to travel to other classrooms.
• Create a process to chose the appropriate people/teachers to be co-teachers.
![Page 25: Coteaching](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022402/5454a701af795946778b4ccc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Set up a dispute resolving mechanism so that when a co-teacher has a complaint, they have somewhere to go.
• Schedule so that co-teachers will be with each other for the full contracted year. Make it mandatory that co-teachers hold weekly planning meetings.

partner has said. Then, come back together and begin to share reactions to the responses.
Your goal is to (a) Agree, (b) Compromise, or (c) Agree toDisagree.
