Collins, Belva C.; Tekin-Iftar, Elif; Olcay-Gul, Seray
Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, v52 n3 p227-239 2017
This article explores how international collaboration among researchers can contribute to developing evidence-based practices and disseminating knowledge in the field of special education. A review of a sample of special education journals published in English to identify articles written in collaboration by researchers from different countries is followed by an example of a collaborative relationship between special education researchers in Turkey and the United States that illustrates the potential of international collaboration to impact evidence-based practices. The article concludes with a discussion of the importance of international collaboration and recommendations for others who are interested in international collaboration.
