Posted by LINDA CHION KENNEY: The "inclusion" model was center stage April 17 at the Barn Theatre at Winthrop, where an awards banquet was held for educators engaged in the co-teaching model. Their aim is to "include" or "mainstream" students with disablities into the regular education classroom. Organizers said they were heartened to see at least twice as many teachers at the banquet this year than last and hope to see even more teachers involved in co-teaching in the years ahead. Educators involved in inclusion teaching say that the Exceptional Student Education (ESE) students achieve gains by striving to meet a higher expectation while general education students benefit from a teaching model that better matches teaching style to learning style.
