I’m studying for my Psychology class and need an explanation.

Family Partnership Plans

Family and community involvement enhance the learning experiences of
children. Early childhood administrators realize that there are cultural,
economic, and other factors that break down communication and limit the ways
family and community members can participate in programs for young children.
They must be willing to learn how to meet diverse needs and establish trusting
relationships with families and communities. Surveying parents and families at
the beginning of the year will help you better understand the challenges and
barriers they face. You will learn more about their parenting styles, views,
values, and preferred ways to be contacted and involved in their child’s
learning and development. Data from the surveys will help you create a plan for
family and community involvement in your early childhood program.

For the Unit 9 Assignment, you will analyze four completed family surveys
located in the Course Documents area of the course and compare the survey
results to research-based theories of family systems and approaches to family
and community involvement. You will use this information to create a family
partnership plan for each of the families surveyed. The family partnership
plans will be created to represent the specific viewpoints of the families for
the purpose of increasing family and community involvement in your early
childhood program.

You will use the Family Partnership Plan Template included in the Course
Documents area of the course to complete the following components of the Unit 9
Assignment:

Part 1: Analyze the Family Survey Data

For Part 1 of the Assignment, you will analyze four completed family
surveys, which are included in the Course Documents area of the course, to gain
a better understanding of the needs and challenges diverse families face from
the viewpoint of the families themselves. You will include your summary of your
analysis of each family’s needs, challenges, parenting styles, values, and
preferred ways to be contacted and involved in their child’s learning on the
Family Partnership Plan Template provided.

Part 2: Compare Survey Results to Research-Based Theories &
Approaches

For Part 2 of the Assignment, a 3-4 page expository essay should be written
using Standard English, complete with citations and references. The essay
should be written using standard paragraph structure and 12-point Times New
Roman font. It should also follow all other APA formatting and citation
guidelines and include separate title and references pages.

You will compare the survey results to research-based theories of family
systems and approaches to family and community involvement. For each family
surveyed, describe which family system is represented and which research-based
approach or modified approach to family and community involvement will work
best for the family. This expository essay should be original and insightful.

Part 3: Create Family Partnership Plans

Based on your analysis of the family surveys and comparisons of
research-based theories of family systems and approaches to family and
community involvement, complete the chart included in the Unit 9 Assignment
Template to create family partnership plans for each of the families surveyed.
Your plans will include communication, involvement, and various support strategies.

Please use 12′ font, APA format 6th addition.
