Team teaching final
This document discusses team teaching, an approach where teaching personnel collaborate to improve instruction. Some advantages of team teaching include allowing for specialization, careful planning, stimulating learners, meeting individual needs, and exposing students to varied viewpoints. Disadvantages include difficulties scheduling large groups and losing sight of objectives if specialization is taken too far. Planning, recording, and evaluating team teaching requires time from teachers. It also needs adequate facilities like lecture rooms. Effective team teaching requires defining roles, thorough preparation, and trial implementation with agreement from all stakeholders.
