A pressing need exists for models and programs that serve the educational needs of the steadily increasing numbers of culturally and linguistically diverse students in US public schools. This book addresses issues related to development, implementation, and effectiveness of a program model that fulfills this need.

Recenzje

"Rodriguez-Brown’s strength in her work is her retrospection and approachable delivery….Home-School Connection would be most useful for graduate students looking to do research on parent involvement and/or home literacies, especially those who are unsure about how theory connects to research methodology. This book could also serve researchers and school administrators who are planning family literacy programs. Teacher-educators may benefit from the numerous examples of teachers using sociocultural frameworks to hear the voice of parents and families."--Education Review, June 2010
