2021 NCCEP/GEAR UP Annual Conference
July 21st, 11:00–12:00pmPST: Developing Student Ownership: How Parents and Caregivers Can Help Their Children Become Life-Long Learners
Every parent wants their child to succeed. Every guardian wants their child to grow academically. Every caregiver wants their child to build a sustainable future. The best way to do this is to ensure that all children become life-long learners. We know that parents and caregivers have a crucial role in ensuring that their children become life-long learners. But many parents and caregivers don't know how to support their children in this endeavor. Learn how to develop effective and efficient learning opportunities for families that will build their capacity to empower their child to be as successful as possible.
Learning Objectives:
- Examine research-based practices that foster the development of student ownership in curriculum, instruction, assessment, and climate.
- Analyze the phases of an engaging, effective, and efficient learning opportunity for parents and caregivers.
- Reflect on strategies, tools, and techniques that support a systemic effort for increasing family support and student achievement, in order to determine an implementable plan.
Can you imagine building an environment full of motivated, engaged, and eager students who own their learning?
We can.
