Reaching Out to Parents with Technology
Stephens, Karen
Child Care Information Exchange, n157 p14-18 May-Jun 2004
Communication technology strengthens the bonds of parent-program partnerships. It does a great job of reinforcing and broadening parent outreach efforts. It helps staff respond to a wide variety of family questions and needs. And it allows them to respond in a timely manner. In this article, the author explores how to put technology's amazing potential--e-mail, digital cameras and camcorders, program web sites, parent resource room with web access, and web cams--to work for directors and those they serve.
