This publication discusses selected elements of community involvement programs and processes that directly relate to the classroom teacher. The areas covered give the teacher a theoretical base to support the concept of community involvement as well as practical ways to implement basic elements of community involvement to enhance the learning processes of students. These areas are a rationale for teachers' involvement with the community and use of volunteers in the classroom techniques and strategies of home visitation. Sample instruments and materials are also included to aid the teacher in initiating, implementing, and evaluating community involvement as it directly relates to the classroom. (Authors/JD)
