Abstract

Technology has provided numerous opportunities for teachers and families to connect and to support student academic performance. The advent of the internet and educational apps has resulted in immediate and more accessible home-to-school communication options. Researchers have found significant benefits related to these connections resulting in higher academic performance and lower off-task classroom behaviors. However, families do not always have reliable access to technology, and teachers may lack training on how to establish these valuable partnerships. Therefore, this chapter provides an overview of how to promote home-to-school connections and practical applications of how to overcome potential barriers that inhibit these impactful relationships.
