Does Co-Teaching Increase Student Engagement, Tiffany Morey

Master's Theses & Capstone Projects

The purpose of this action research is to determine if students will be more engaged in learning whole group interventions if co-taught. In the first two weeks students were observed with only the classroom teacher teaching the intervention. The next three weeks the classroom teacher and the instructional coach co-taught the whole group intervention, and students were observed to see if engagement had increased. Pre-survey and post survey questions were administered to the students for quantitative data. Qualitative data was gathered through observations and journal notes.
