Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Limited parental involvement plagues many school districts around the nation and world, and depending on their role, administrators, teachers, and parents have varying perceptions of what parental involvement should look like. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze of elementary, middle, an high school parents by exploring the perceptions of their own involvement with regard to their (a) race, (b) education level, (c) socio-economic status, and (d) number of children in the household under age 18. Joyce Epstein's six types of parental involvement supported by Hoover-Dempsey and Sandler's five levels of parental involvement provided the framework of this study. Findings indicated that while obstacles varied with respect to various parent demographic, the desire for parents to involved still existed. Results from this study not only contribute to current literature connected to parental involvement but also provide urban district stakeholders with further knowledge that might help increase, support, and encourage parental involvement, which has been shown to positively impact student achievement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It Takes a Village: A Collaborative Assault on the Struggling Reader Dilemma has a wellspring of incredibly useful information for teacher educators, pre-service and in-service teachers alike. It shows quite clearly that preparing effective reading teachers while addressing issues related to (a) readers who struggle (b) parental inclusion, and (c) the inclusion of the wider community can be done quite successfully. This book puts readers in touch with compelling insights into the importance of parental inclusion in the educational efforts of their children. Additionally, it provides a "counter narrative" to the belief by many that parents and in particular, racial and ethnic minority parents, do not participate with their children in academic endeavors. The text also focuses on key aspects of teacher preparation especially as it relates to reading instruction. The author provides a wonderful variety of step-by-step approaches for how to seamlessly transition teacher reading instruction from the lecture hall to the "village" practice sites. The book is well written with the authentic voices of parents, students and pre-service teachers. This book is an excellent contribution to the literature concerning issues related to struggling readers, parental inclusion and community involvement. - Samuel Miller, Associate Dean, University of North Carolina Greensboro.

This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents a collaborative action research project in one school where researchers and practitioners worked together to develop multimodal literacies and pedagogies for diverse, multilingual elementary classrooms. Following chronologically from Lotherington’s Pedagogy of Multiliteracies (2011), this volume picks up after teachers and researchers have learned how to work efficiently as a learning community to offer project-based learning approaches. This edited collection relates how teachers and students of different grade levels, language backgrounds, and abilities developed a shared agenda and created a framework for effective and inclusive practices. Contributors demonstrate that collaboration, creative pedagogical solutions and innovative project-based learning are all essential parts of learning and teaching socially appropriate and responsive literacies in a multimodal, superdiverse world.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parental involvement is associated with students' educational achievement (Ahmad, 2010; Theodorou, 2008; Yanghee, 2009). Although parent involvement is linked to student success, schools frequently fail to establish a strong connection between home and school (Ahmad, 2010; Bourdieu, 1973; Brint, 2011), particularly in urban areas (Epstein & Sanders, 2006). Thus, a descriptive case study was used to examine the ideologies of both teachers and parents regarding the quality of their interrelationships with respect to how they both care for their children. Three varied data sets were used: (a) open-ended interviews, (b) field notes, and (c) a focus group. The data from the three sources were analyzed and coded using MAXQDA data analysis software. Results indicated that both teachers and parents prioritize communication and sharing information as two main strategies to improve engagement and optimize children's academic results. Additionally, results indicated that both groups expressed the hope that parental involvement in their children's educations would lead to better parent-teacher relationships and the children's continued motivation for learning. Further, results indicated four major social and cultural factors that influence the relationships between families and schools: attitudes and beliefs, unwelcome feelings due to a new school policy, gaps in home-school communication, and a lack of trust in special services. Moreover, creating a welcoming environment, improving home-school communication, and establishing early collaboration emerged as significant requirements for healthy parent-teacher relationships.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National data cited by Barton & Coley (2010) indicate that African American males are achieving less than Caucasian males in elementary school-level reading. Taking education beyond the classroom and into the home may be a critically important mechanism for addressing this problem and reducing the negative impact of academic contexts where African American males are experiencing deficiencies in reading. Research by Renth, Buckley, & Puchner (2015) shows parent engagement plays a crucial role in students' academic success in school. However, not all parents are equipped with appropriate instructional tools to promote academic engagement within the home. Beecher & Sweeny (2008) noted that various instructional practices such as enrichment, differentiated instruction, and culturally relevant instruction can positively affect educational disparities in African American males. Their research employed a case study design to better understand parents' engagement with a digital personalized learning system and its influence on their African American boys' reading scores in an urban elementary school. The three literature review streams of the present study included educational disparities, parent engagement, and technology-based learning. Findings suggest that parents perceive Lexia as easily accessible and tailored to the individual learning needs of their child. Parents also reported noticeable improvements in the areas of comprehension and spelling. Furthermore, parents expressed a desire for additional digital learning resources to support academic engagement with their child.

Download or read book The Outcomes of Implementing a Parent Involvement Program in an Inner-city Elementary School written by Gretchen Elisabeth Riehl and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originating in the 1960's with Head Start, the message regarding the value of parent involvement in children's education has exponentially grown more pronounced. In fact, such sweeping legislation as IDEA (1997) and Goals 2000: Educate America Act has mandated the inclusion of parents in their children's education. Although the advantages of effective parent-school partnerships are well documented, the extent to which all socioeconomic groups are implementing such activities and reaping their benefits remains ambiguous. The foundational work of James Comer and Joyce Epstein addressed issues unique to parents and schools in lower-class, inner-city communities. For truly collaborative parent-school partnership to form and for the achievement of students to, in turn, increase, system-wide, long-term commitment to change must take place. Epstein identified six types of involvement between families and schools, and articulated particular outcomes expected to result from each type. A study of the implementation of a parent involvement program was conducted at an urban elementary school in The Columbus Public School District. The purpose of the study was to determine if participation in a parent involvement program resulted in the expected outcomes outlined in Epstein's six-typology framework of parental involvement. The study also examined parents' motivations for participating in the program, their expectations of it, and their perceptions of the benefits accrued from participation. An ethnographic interview was conducted with one parent utilizing the methodology outlined by Spradley (1979). Parent interviews were evaluated to determine the effects of the parent involvement program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a report on the positive impact of parental involvement on their child's academics and on the school at large. Building Parent Engagement in Schools is an introduction to educators, particularly in lower-income and urban schools, who want to promote increased parental engagement in both the classroom and at home—an effort required by provisions of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. It is both an authoritative review of research that confirms the positive impact of parental involvement on student achievement and a guide for implementing proven strategies for increasing that involvement. With Building Parent Engagement in Schools, educators can start to develop a hybrid culture between home and school, so that school can serve as a cultural bridge for the students. Filled with the voices of real educators, students, and parents, the book documents a number of parent-involved efforts to improve low-income communities, gain greater resources for schools, and improve academic achievement. Coverage includes details of real initiatives in action, including programs for home visits, innovative uses of technology, joint enterprises like school/community gardens, and community organization efforts.

This book was released on 1993-02-02 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent research identifies increased parent involvement in education as a promising method to bolster student achievement. Statistics show that while many traditional white, middle class families have found ways to be involved with their children's schooling, our nation now needs to find ways to include more minority parents in their children's education. Most educators and parents would agree that minority parent involvement in education is essential; the mechanics of developing sensitive, realistic, and workable home-school relationships are more elusive. It requires a concerted effort by all involved to understand more about the complex parent-school relationship and to develop specific plans to help families. This comprehensive volume features substantial material from the nation's most renowned research projects on parent involvement—Stanford University's Center for the Study of Families, Children and Youth, the Johns Hopkins University's Center for Research on Elementary and Middle Schools, the Southwest Educational Development Laboratory, and the National Catholic Education Association. In addition to a section on research, the book includes a section on practice that presents research-tested strategies on working with minority parents (Asian, American Indian, Hispanic, African American, and other minority groups). The book concludes with a section on future challenges that educators must confront and appendices on promising national programs and helpful resource materials.
