This book was released on 2010 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paraprofessionals in special education have a high level of responsibility but a low level of training and support to help them do their jobs effectively (Downing, Ryndak, & Clark, 2000; Goessling, 1998). The following qualitative study examined and analyzed the role of paraprofessional supervisors and the meaning of supervision. Participants included paraprofessionals, teachers, school psychologists, principals, and an administrator (n=17) in a California public elementary school district. Some of the teachers and paraprofessionals worked in an inclusive, general education setting, and some worked in a self-contained special education setting. Data were collected through participant-observation, formal and informal interviews, and written artifacts. Analyses showed patterns and idiosyncrasies within the teacher-paraprofessional relationship and the meaning of supervision, and implications address supervisory preparation and practices.

Book excerpt: Co-teaching is an equal partnership between a special education teacher and a general education teacher. They share a classroom and responsibilities for teaching all students in the class. But what does co-teaching look like? How does it work? Are we doing it right?

This book was released on 2016 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: There have been an increasing number of paraprofessionals hired to work in the public school system in the inclusion and self-contained settings. Paraprofessional perception of job roles varies greatly within the different educational facilities within the United States. The purpose of this study was to conduct a quantitative analysis on paraprofessionals in the inclusion and self-contained environment. Survey research was chosen for the method of research for this study as the researcher attempted to gain a deeper understanding of the perception of job role of paraprofessionals in the inclusion and self-contained settings. This quantitative study examined, described and interpreted the results of a survey given to paraprofessionals in the inclusion and self-contained settings measuring perception of job role. A total of 98 paraprofessionals from the inclusion and self-contained settings completed a 15 question Likert survey assessing their perception of job role within their setting. Five factors were identified and used as the framework of the study; these were identified as Instructional Role, Liaison Role, Personal Support Role, One-to-One Support Role, and School Support Role. The independent variable in this study was identified as setting; the dependent variable was identified as the paraprofessionals' perception of job role. The results from the survey indicated there is a difference in perception of job role in the area of school support. By identifying areas where a gap exists in perception between selfcontained and inclusion paraprofessionals, strategies related to this gap are provided in hopes of creating a more than productive learning environment for students.
