Course Description

This module discusses potential barriers to meaningful parent-teacher interactions in ethno-culturally diverse child care settings, as identified by research conducted in the 1990s. Readers are encouraged to consider whether similar barriers still exist in their work with diverse families. Causal factors for challenges in communicating are introduced.
