Popis: The Professional Development School Without Walls is a partnership between the Departments of Special Education and Elementary Education at the University of South Florida and two large school districts. The goals of the partnership are to simultaneously improve teacher education and K—12 classroom practice and to study the effectiveness and sustainability of the developed model for partnering over time. This article describes how the partnering model was developed; the challenges, needs, and contexts influencing the development and implementation process; and the outcomes to date. One of the most unique features of the partnership is the way in which the roles of mentor teachers have been defined.
