Event Details
The National Association of Family, School and Community Engagement (NAFSCE) has created a new framework for integrating family engagement content into preservice education. This framework was created with teams of educators from seven states, including Hawai‘i, over a little more than two years with input from administrators, teachers, and family and community members. We would like to share the framework with you, including the process of creating it, and some ideas of how to use it in your courses. This Brown Bag is pertinent to all of the stakeholders mentioned above (teacher educators, teachers, administrators, families and community members).
