Abstract | When educators seek ways to connect with families and communities, they typically begin by looking outward. They attend to the barriers, challenges, and conditions that exist out there--families living in poverty, differing levels of parental education, and discrepant access to resources. Pushor proposes that educators begin instead by looking inward, examining how their own beliefs and assumptions shape their practices in reaching out to families and communities. This approach is based on the belief that parents and caregivers have deep and rich knowledge of their children that can make them invaluable partners. Meaningful family engagement, writes Pushor, isn't about getting more parents to come to parent-teacher conferences. It's about giving parents a voice and a place in the core work of schooling--teaching and learning. (As Provided). |
