Preservice Teachers' Beliefs about Family Involvement: Implications for Teacher Education
Baum, Angela C.; McMurray-Schwarz, Paula
Early Childhood Education Journal, v32 n1 p57-61 Aug 2004
Teacher educators have long recognized the importance of adequately preparing preservice teachers for their work with families. Preservice teachers express many concerns that they believe may impact the development of comfortable and collaborative relationships with members of children's families. In a previous study, the authors found that preservice teachers expressed concerns about the quality of the teacher-family relationship, meeting children's basic needs in school, and the role of parents in education. These concerns, along with some recommendations for incorporating family involvement across the teacher education curriculum, are the focus of this article.
