Abstract: The Adult Basic Education for College & Career (ABECC) program at Pima Community College in Tucson, Arizona, has been developing successful Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training (IBEST) programs as an IET instructional model since 2013. This session will explore how students and instructors who have participated in IBEST programs experience this collaborative model. Hear from students about what aspects of this integrated approach they identify as having been the most critical to improving their academic performance. Learn from IBEST instructors how they approach co-planning lessons and assignments and co-teaching in the classroom.
