How to use these models
Team Teaching: How to Use
Before you begin:
• Make sure your audio is turned on. If you would like a
transcript of the audio track, print out the ‘Notes’ sections
of the PowerPoint slides.
• This series of PowerPoint presentations is a nonfacilitated, self-directed course in eight sections. While it
is best to work through the course from beginning to end
to get the fullest understanding of Team Teaching, you
can choose to do only selected sections. It’s
recommended that you complete the Introduction
(section 1) and the Conclusion (section 8) with any of the
other sections you choose.
