Companion DVD - 7 Effective Strategies for Secondary Inclusion

"Lisa Dieker's book contains the most practical, realistic, and helpful ideas and techniques for secondary inclusion that I have ever seen. As impressive as her classroom strategies are, her chapters on school-wide culture, collaboration, and creating a climate of support are outstanding. I feel that any secondary educator can benefit from the wisdom and sound suggestions that can be found in this amazing book."
