Title: Conducting Effective Conferences with Parents of Children with Disabilities
First published: March 10, 2000
Description: "This book provides the knowledge and skills needed to conduct effective conferences with parents of children with disabilities. Readers gain a solid understanding of the challenges that families face as a consequence of childhood disability and the issues that are likely to arise in meetings with school professionals. Reviewing the basic elements of parent-teacher conferencing, Seligman highlights ways to develop strong listening and responding skills, establish rapport, and engage parents who may feel anxious, frustrated, or angry. Also addressed are the requirements of the legally mandated Individualized Education Program conference. Enhancing the book's utility are sample dialogues, role-play scenarios and exercises, and referral sources and publications suitable for recommendation to parents. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
