6 Benefits of Teacher Collaboration

We love small anecdotes like these—stories of real schools that made a few relatively simple changes so their teachers could reap the benefits of collaboration. This one, from a Pennsylvania school superintendent, is adapted from Strategic Co-Teaching in Your School: Using the Co-Design Model, by Richael Barger-Anderson, Robert S. Isherwood, & Joseph Merhaut. See what they did to improve collaboration among the teachers in their school—and discover 6 ways this increased collaboration helped both educators and students succeed.
