Abstract | This practicum was designed to use training to increase economically disadvantaged parents' participation in their children's academic learning. Objectives were that targeted, uninvolved parents would: (1) increase communication with their children's school; (2) increase their attendance at school functions involving parents; (3) increase their involvement in their child's education; (4) identify family support services they needed to become more involved; (5) demonstrate initiative in educating their child at home; and (6) check out a computer and software, which would be used to provide educational materials to their children at home. A preassessment questionnaire was used to determine family needs and interests. Several workshops were developed. During the 12-week practicum, the take-home computer program was used to bridge classroom instruction with parent involvement at home. A post-assessment questionnaire was used to determine the extent to which participants felt the program was successful. All six objectives were met. Results indicate a high degree of correlation between practicum results and results described in related literature. Appended are related materials and 29 references. (GLR) |
