We hope to offer the use of our video library to parents and students who might like to use the tapes at home. Once the update has been completed, the list will be available for parental use. The following is an excerpt from Cable in the Classroom Comes Home Bulletin. The public is educated regarding the value of selectively incorporating audiovisual materials into classroom teaching. Parents enjoy the opportunity to participate in their children's schools.
Studies show that students whose parents are involved in school perform better.
Cable in the Classroom Comes Home is a convenient, inexpensive, and valuable way that even the most time-pressed working parents can contribute. The school's video library will grow, and families will gain access to a wealth of excellent and an enlightening programming. We are beginning to see the teachers checking out tapes to share with their classes or just to watch for background information for themselves. Teachers are asked to evaluate any tapes they watch and to have the students and parents also evaluate them. The students were asked what the best part of the video was.
