EDU 323 Home, School and Community Partnerships

The course examines the ways in which early childhood programs are a part of the family support system. It focuses on the development of an understanding of traditional and nontraditional families, structural and lifestyle variations, parenting in diverse cultures and the needs of high-risk families. Implications from these understandings will guide development of a parent involvement plan that includes effective ways to communicate with parents, conference with parents, hold parent meetings and conduct home visits.
