One Teach-One Teach: An Emerging Co-Teaching Strategy

Co-teaching allows educators to take on specific roles and responsibilities in the classroom leading to more effective instruction. With increased expectations to embrace technologies provided during virtual and hybrid instruction, co-teachers are taking on more technology-based responsibilities in face-to-face instruction. In this article, the authors pose a new co-teaching strategy, “One Teach-One Tech,” which intentionally delegates technology tasks during co-planning, instruction, and assessment. This strategy can be used with existing co-teaching models to support the effective implementation and innovative use of technology to support students in inclusive, co-taught classrooms. After defining this proposed strategy, the authors present and explore strategies for implementation, benefits, and challenges of this co-teaching strategy.
