JELT_V4_N3_A3 How Does Station Teaching Effect Language Learning? K. Suprabha G. Subramonian Journal on English Language Teaching 2249 – 0752 4 3 21 25 Co-teaching, Co-teaching Models, Station Teaching, Co-teaching Relationship, Implementation, Benefits All across the nation, general and special education teachers, English as a Second Language teachers, and other service providers, such as speech-language pathologists from all grade levels and all content areas, are taking the plunge into co-teaching. Station or rotation teaching is a co-teaching strategy that calls for the designing of at least three workstations or learning centers where students rotate in and out in small groups. In a station teaching approach teachers divide the responsibility for planning and content instruction. Students are rotated between three or more stations, also known as centers, which are either managed by a teacher or assistant or are independent stations. Teachers can work together to determine how many stations are appropriate for a given activity. Independent student workstations should include explicit instructions accompanied by teacher monitoring to ensure that learning objectives are met.
