Collaboration
Collaboration serves as the first domain in the updated High-Leverage Practices for Students with Disabilities. Collaboration is an important responsibility among all who serve students with disabilities as it is crucial to providing a coherent program that ensures the success and well-being of each student. The sharing of varied expertise and perspectives among professionals and families is necessary to
- understanding each student’s holistic and intersectional needs,
- planning and implementing their Individualized Education Programs (IEPs),
- monitoring student progress and adjusting instruction,
- assuring each student’s well-being in schools, and
- jointly identifying and implementing culturally inclusive pedagogies and practices (CIPP).
