Community Involvemant in Schools is Changing

Filed Under (Assignment) by wccferland on 11-02-2009



Involvement and the means of involving the community is changing. Students are using technology that wasn’t even invented when many of the parents and teachers were in school. Voicethread, iphones, podcasts, classroom websites and blogging along with other types of technology allow families, students, and the community to stay connected with daily events. The knowledge that comes from communication empowers all of us. Families and educators can use this as a base to provide a stronger support system enhancing the likelihood of not only success, but assisting students to reach their full potential. When community and business leaders team up with educators we gain a prospective of what modifications are needed in order to help our students meet the challenges of the future and to become successful community members.
