Co-teaching may be a promising strategy to improve inclusive secondary mathematics education in rural schools. Professional development (PD) aids in special and general education teachers' co-teaching implementation, yet little empirical research examines how to effectively train and support co-teachers.

The surveys were nearly identical and were designed to explore barriers that the two disciplines experience working with each other as well as …
