The authors clearly explain the four models of co-teaching and provide vignettes for teachers at every level.

Dr. Ann Nevin, author of books, research articles, and numerous chapters, is a scholar and teacher educator who graduated magna cum laude from the University of Minnesota with a Ph.D. in Educational Psychology.

I believe that the purpose of education is to empower others.
