Mannan, Golam; Blackwell, Jacqueline
Urban Review, v24 n3 p219-26 Sep 1992
Explores issues of parent involvement in light of current educational reform movements, asserts that parent involvement as a voluntary effort may not be effective, and argues that businesses and industries interested in reform are not focusing sufficiently on work-related variables that might encourage involvement of parents and other adults.
