Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory<\/strong>
\n
\nUrie Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory posits that a child\u2019s development is influenced by different environmental systems, with the microsystem being the closest to the child. This includes family and educators who interact directly with the child.
\n
\nThe theory emphasises that the child\u2019s immediate environment (family and educators) plays a crucial role in their development. Strong, positive relationships between families and educators create a cohesive support system around the child, promoting their overall well-being and development.
\n
\nStudies based on this theory show that when families and educators collaborate, children experience consistent support across home and school environments, leading to better social, emotional, and academic outcomes.<\/p>\n"},"subContentId":"686c0c41-e586-470c-b756-8403e2373ce7","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"}},"alwaysDisplayComments":false,"backgroundOpacity":0,"displayAsButton":false,"buttonSize":"big","goToSlideType":"specified","invisible":false,"solution":""}],"slideBackgroundSelector":{}},{"elements":[{"x":2.967359050445104,"y":5.284012423575277,"width":90.50445103857567,"height":81.81710277852711,"action":{"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","params":{"text":"

Vygotsky\u2019s Sociocultural Theory<\/strong>
\n
\nLev Vygotsky\u2019s Sociocultural Theory highlights the importance of social interaction in learning and development. It suggests that children learn through interactions with more knowledgeable others, including family members and educators.
\n
\nThe theory underscores the value of communication and collaboration between families and educators. By working together, they create enriched learning experiences reflecting the child\u2019s cultural background, enhancing their learning and development.
\n
\nResearch rooted in Vygotsky\u2019s theory demonstrates that children show improved cognitive and language development when educators engage with families and incorporate their cultural and social contexts into the learning environment.<\/p>\n"},"subContentId":"596a1844-95fb-4c55-978b-49062694a284","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"}},"alwaysDisplayComments":false,"backgroundOpacity":0,"displayAsButton":false,"buttonSize":"big","goToSlideType":"specified","invisible":false,"solution":""}],"slideBackgroundSelector":{}},{"elements":[{"x":2.9673590504451037,"y":5.278522759904976,"width":91.98813056379822,"height":79.17784139857463,"action":{"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","params":{"text":"

Epstein's Framework of Six Types of Parental Involvement<\/strong>
\n
\nJoyce Epstein\u2019s Framework outlines six types of involvement that connect families, schools, and communities: parenting, communicating, volunteering, learning at home, decision-making, and collaborating with the community.
\n
\nThis framework emphasises the need for schools to engage families in various aspects of their children\u2019s education. Strong relationships between families and educators foster parental involvement in school activities, decision-making, and at-home learning, contributing to better children's educational outcomes.<\/p>\n\n

Research associated with Epstein\u2019s framework has shown that schools with active family engagement programs see higher levels of student achievement, better attendance, and more positive attitudes toward school from both children and parents.<\/p>\n"},"subContentId":"a86d20bc-7cb5-4f59-811c-ffcf32567a6e","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","license":"U","title":"Untitled Text"}},"alwaysDisplayComments":false,"backgroundOpacity":0,"displayAsButton":false,"buttonSize":"big","goToSlideType":"specified","invisible":false,"solution":""}],"slideBackgroundSelector":{}}],"keywordListEnabled":true,"globalBackgroundSelector":{},"keywordListAlwaysShow":false,"keywordListAutoHide":false,"keywordListOpacity":90},"override":{"activeSurface":true,"hideSummarySlide":false,"summarySlideSolutionButton":true,"summarySlideRetryButton":true,"enablePrintButton":false,"social":{"showFacebookShare":false,"facebookShare":{"url":"@currentpageurl","quote":"I scored @score out of @maxScore on a task at @currentpageurl."},"showTwitterShare":false,"twitterShare":{"statement":"I scored @score out of @maxScore on a task at @currentpageurl.","url":"@currentpageurl","hashtags":"h5p, course"},"showGoogleShare":false,"googleShareUrl":"@currentpageurl"}},"l10n":{"slide":"Slide","score":"Score","yourScore":"Your Score","maxScore":"Max Score","total":"Total","totalScore":"Total Score","showSolutions":"Show solutions","retry":"Retry","exportAnswers":"Export text","hideKeywords":"Hide sidebar navigation menu","showKeywords":"Show sidebar navigation menu","fullscreen":"Fullscreen","exitFullscreen":"Exit fullscreen","prevSlide":"Previous slide","nextSlide":"Next slide","currentSlide":"Current slide","lastSlide":"Last slide","solutionModeTitle":"Exit solution mode","solutionModeText":"Solution Mode","summaryMultipleTaskText":"Multiple tasks","scoreMessage":"You achieved:","shareFacebook":"Share on Facebook","shareTwitter":"Share on Twitter","shareGoogle":"Share on Google+","summary":"Summary","solutionsButtonTitle":"Show comments","printTitle":"Print","printIngress":"How would you like to print this presentation?","printAllSlides":"Print all slides","printCurrentSlide":"Print current slide","noTitle":"No title","accessibilitySlideNavigationExplanation":"Use left and right arrow to change slide in that direction whenever canvas is selected.","accessibilityCanvasLabel":"Presentation canvas.
