Selling Parents on Technology.

Freeman, Linda

Principal, v78 n3 p45-46 Jan 1999

There are three effective strategies for allaying parents' trepidations about using technology in their children's classrooms. Principals should acknowledge and respect parents' apprehensions, recommit to educational goals shared by educators and parents, and focus on student achievement. Student exposure and protection must be balanced. (MLH)
