"Collaboration and Co-teaching:
Integrated Service Delivery for the Sake of English Learners"
One of the 21st century competencies proclaimed by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills is collaboration. In
Edutopia, Grace Rubenstein claimed that the Information Age is now being replaced by the Collaboration Age.
Our co-keynote takes a broad-based look at what effective teacher collaboration looks like, what essential
frameworks need to be established for ESL and mainstream teachers to work together, and how integrated
approaches to English language services benefit all stakeholders.
