These eight learning modules were prepared for parents participating in Brevard Community College's Project BEST-PAL (Basic Education Skills Through-Parenting Affective Learning), which was designed for low socioeconomic parents who are in need of an opportunity to explore effective parenting. First, materials for the BEST-PAL volunteer sponsors are presented, explaining how to use the learning modules most effectively. Next, the eight learning modules, written on a 6th-7th grade reading level, cover the following topics: (1) understanding why children misbehave and what to do; (2) who has the power?; (3) encouraging children; (4) communication; (5) problem solving; (6) role modeling; (7) discipline; and (8) sex education. Each module includes a list of words used in the text and sentences using the words; readings and exercises; questions to think about; and assignments to complete at home. (AYC)
