The journey towards inclusive education and collaborative practices in different countries is complex and interdependent within each unique geopolitical landscape. Instructional Collaboration in International Inclusive Education Contexts looks at the instructional collaboration between special education and general education in international educational contexts and the role this plays in enabling inclusive education.

This book provides insights into how collaborative practices are enacted in support of inclusive education in different countries around the world. Presenting a theoretical framework of instructional collaboration to provide an understanding of the commonalities, differences, and challenges of collaboration internationally. Scholars from thirteen nations each contribute towards the implementation of instructional collaborative practices and highlight how instructional collaboration is developed from teacher preparation programs, describing how this is implemented in schools to provide insight of the social and political considerations that impact on the promotion of inclusive education in the context of their country.

Instructional Collaboration in International Inclusive Education Contexts is essential reading for researchers and professionals with a focus on inclusive and special education.

At the midway point towards the United Nations (UN) Agenda 2030, this critical volume focuses on how a range of contextually diverse countries are progressing towards inclusive education. Contributors critically consider the current state of inclusive education in their own countries in relation to meeting the UN’s Agenda 2030 initiative and Sustainable Development Goal 4.

The foundation is set in chapter one by the editors, with a historical overview of inclusion and inclusive policies globally. Key international scholars critique the history and status of inclusion in their respective contexts. In reference to local research, they explore the history of inclusion, the current policies and state of inclusion, barriers and levers for inclusion, and look towards the future of inclusive education. Chapters demonstrate how the continued call for a shift towards inclusive education in different countries is extremely complex and varies greatly within each international context. Attention is given to levers promoting inclusion through contextually appropriate international initiatives and the importance of the realignment of policies and practices if all countries are to achieve the 2030 UN’s education goal.

Progress Toward Agenda 2030 serves to challenge all educational stakeholders to critically consider, analyze, and innovate policies and practices for inclusive education for all by 2030.

Recognizing the increasing workload placed on academics amidst a highly competitive publishing landscape, Collaborative Writing Groups for Academic Publishing: The 3C and 4P Way helps aspiring researchers establish hyper-productive virtual writing groups to build personal confidence and professional relationships, develop their academic writing skillsets, and further their careers.

Drawing on their own experiences, including their motivations and career paths, the authors offer practical guidance for establishing collaborative writing groups using the 3Cs (Common Focus, Commitments, and Communication) and the 4Ps (Priorities, Plans, Protecting Deadlines, and Positive Reinforcement). Walking readers through a series of developmental phases, the authors also provide a thorough discussion of useful analogue and digital tools to support groups in an ongoing cycle of goal setting, progress monitoring, and success celebrating. Encouraging a sense of community building and collaboration, which counteracts the isolation and competition that often plagues the academic sphere, chapters also explore the less measurable aspects of group collaboration: trust, respect, follow through, flexibility, the ability to discuss critically without fear, and a willingness to stick with their efforts even if results take a few tries.

Grounded in the practical implementation of the C3P4 process, this timely work acts as an essential manual for aspiring academics to achieve the ultimate collaborative workflow, benefitting both researchers and those their research will impact.
