Autorenporträt
Wendy W. Murawski is a veteran professor and author. She has worked at the university level for 18 years, after first working as a high school teacher. She now runs a Center on Teaching and Learning in southern California at a major university. She has authored numerous journal articles, in both general and special education journals, as well as multiple book chapters and an instructor's manual. With Corwin Press, she has two solo-authored books on Co-Teaching (both best-sellers), a co-authored book on Collaboration and Differentiation (best seller), and two new edited books on What Really Works in Elementary and Secondary Education (2015). She has co-authored a best-selling book and ebook with the Council for Exceptional Children on co-teaching for administrators. She has self-published Co-Teaching in the Inclusive Classroom, a resource handbook on co-teaching, selling more than 7,000 copies over the years. She has established herself as a researcher (receiving the 2002 Dissertation Award from CEC's Division of Learning Disabilities), an award-winning author (receiving the 2004 Publication Award from CEC's Division of Research), and as a teacher educator (receiving the 2004 California Teacher Educator of the Year Award from the California Council of Teacher Educators [CCTE]). Her meta-analysis on co-teaching research is often cited in the literature (Murawski & Swanson, 2001) and she is a national and international speaker on the topic of co-teaching and inclusive practices. She is on the speaker's bureau with the Bureau of Education and Research (BER) and is often requested to consult and present and do keynotes to schools, districts, conferences, and even state departments. Finally, she owns her own national educational consulting company. This has enabled her to work with many other groups, even outside of PK-12 and university education. In the last 12 months, she has worked in multiple school districts in Wyoming, West Virginia, Virginia, California (northern & southern), Texas, Arizona, New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, South Carolina, Wisconsin, and China; in the last few years, she has presented in 43 of the 50 states, as well as in Asia, Africa, and Europe. She also several independent contractors who also present for her across the nation. Kathy L. Scott has her PhD from Pennsylvania State in Art Education. Prior to that, she received her Masters degree in Art Education from the University of Arizona and her Bachelors in Visual Arts and Art History at Rutgers in New Jersey. She has worked in multiple states in a variety of capacities related to education, and even did her research in England. This diverse experience has allowed her to see education from a variety of perspectives. She ran a federal grant for students with learning disabilities while she was at Rutgers. Now, as the administrative analyst for the Center for Teaching and Learning at California State University, Northridge, she offers workshops on writing and APA style for faculty and students. She also runs large and small events for the university and surrounding community, organizes materials, runs the logistical aspects of the Center, and works collaboratively with the first author on a daily basis. She is highly detail oriented, organized, efficient, and strong in writing and editing. These skills are valuable when editing a book. Together, both the first and second author have already edited two books in the What Really Works series for Corwin Press.
