Parent Involvement in the Education of Young Handicapped Children. Module II: How Parents Can Help. Toward Competence Instructional Materials for Teacher Education. Case 03-75.
Cohen, Shirley
The purpose of this learning module is to make the teacher knowledgeable about the ways in which parents of handicapped children can be usefully and effectively involved in the education process. It is also designed to develop some elementary skills in training parents. After a test on selected readings, the students learn how to conduct a survey to determine current attitudes of practitioners toward parental involvement and how to tabulate and analyze the data. Information is presented on parent organizations and programs for the handicapped. Guidelines are given for communicating with parents, parent-teacher conferences, and workshops for parents. Answers to tests are found in the appendix. (JD)
