"Together": a SWIFT film on Integrated Educational Framework

What is inclusive education? "Together," a SWIFT film by Dan Habib, highlights the collaborative nature of inclusive education. Distinct from traditional special education models, inclusive education taps into the strengths of all adults in the school to ensure every child has the support they need to be successful in the general education classroom. “Together” features one of the SWIFT domains, Integrated Educational Framework, and features schools in Maryland, Mississippi and Oregon implementing the Schoolwide Integrated Framework for Transformation (SWIFT). SWIFT is a national K through 8 technical assistance center that builds school capacity to provide academic and behavioral support to improve outcomes for all students through equity-based inclusive education.
