Enhancing collaboration: families as faculty project.
Abstract
This article discusses the incorporation of a family-professional collaboration model into a master's level course, Introduction to Special Education. The model, Families as Faculty, provides in-service teachers an opportunity to visit with families who have children with special needs, at the family's home. During visits, in-service teachers have the opportunity to listen to family stories about the challenges and joys of raising a child with special needs, and also gain an understanding of the importance of meaningful collaboration with families.
