Elever i behov av stöd ska få sina behov tillgodosedda inom ramen för den ordinarie undervisningen. Det är utgångspunkten för specialundervisning. Klasslärare känner sig dock ofta ensamma med det stora ansvar som följer av inkluderingsideologin, samtidigt som speciallärarens och specialpedagogens roller ter sig diffusa.Den här boken handlar om samarbetet mellan lärare med allmänpedagogisk kompetens och lärare med specialpedagogisk kompetens, och hur detta samarbete kan utvecklas mot samverkande möten i syfte att tillgodose det varierande elevbehov som lärare ställs inför i klassrummet. Fokus ligger framför allt på handledande samtal mellan olika kategorier av lärare. Tre typer av handledande samtal identifieras – reflekterande, konsultativa och samarbetande – och dessa former av samverkan diskuteras såväl teoretiskt som praktiskt.I denna andra upplaga finns ett nytt kapitel om professionell samverkan i skolkontext och ett nytt avslutande kapitel där blicken riktas framåt. Alla kapitel har reviderats utgående från aktuell forskning. Det gäller speciellt kapitlet om begreppsanvändningen inom handledningsfältet.Den samarbetande läraren vänder sig till blivande och verksamma lärare, speciallärare och specialpedagoger. Boken bidrar till forskningen på handledningsfältet, men ger även en empirisk inblick i den specialpedagogiska verksamheten i såväl Finland som Sverige.

Inclusion for immigrant students with special educational needs (SEN) is a neglected area of research. This edited volume addresses this problem, providing up-to-date insights into the provided support and special needs education (SNE) for immigrant students in different contexts of the Nordic countries.This important book explores the diversity of student experiences, addressing both compulsory schools and vocational education, and examines how different Nordic countries conceptualise and approach support and SNE for immigrant students. Readers will get an opportunity to read various studies that address gaps in the realisation of inclusion and special need education. This book initiates a dialogue on generating new knowledge, approaches, and methods to expand the flexibility necessary to implement a fully inclusive education. The book offers research that includes strong theoretical and practical frameworks, interviews, interventions, assessments, case studies as well as offers future directions for inclusive and special needs education.By exploring the process of inclusion and special needs education in the Nordic countries, this book is an essential read for those who intend to deepen their understanding and to enact inclusion, and the development of special needs education for immigrant students.Chapter 3 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.
