Abstract
Co-teaching is a collaborative instructional model in which general and special education teachers work together to plan, deliver, and assess supporting students with and without disabilities. Research indicates that successful co-teaching requires strong collaboration and communication skills between educators. Co-teaching positively impacts student engagement, academic performance, and social-emotional development, particularly those students with Emotional Behavioral Disorder (EBD). Co-teaching ensures that students have their right to education in the general education setting, creating an inclusive classroom environment.
