Abstract for the conference program
Teacher educators face a need to prepare general educators to support students with disabilities. Teams with embedded special education faculty may ensure infusion of special education at the intersection of content and student learning needs. This session describes initiatives where Special Education faculty were embedded into Elementary STEM and secondary Science courses. Special education faculty co-taught with science faculty and visited candidates’ classrooms. Results from surveys will be presented.
