Can a general education teacher cover for an absent special education teacher in an ICT class?

Yes, a general education teacher can provide coverage if adequate efforts have been made to locate an appropriately certified special education teacher and no one is available. However, co-teachers in the same ICT class cannot cover for each other during prep periods.
