Measuring Implementation and Multiple Outcomes in a Child Parent Center Compensatory Education Program:

Measuring Implementation and Multiple Outcomes in a Child Parent Center Compensatory Education... This paper reports an evaluative study of a Child Parent Center Compensatory Education Program delivered to a population marked by low achievement and high incidence of social problems. The 2-year study included classroom observation measures of program implementation and examined the results of specific program characteristics and parent involvement as they affected achievement, locus of control, and home environment. Based on a quasi-experimental study of over 500 children and 120 parents, the program increased achievement, promoted greater feeling of being in control of one’s life, and stimulated parent involvement in school and interest in the child’s educational development. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png American Educational Research Journal SAGE

Abstract

This paper reports an evaluative study of a Child Parent Center Compensatory Education Program delivered to a population marked by low achievement and high incidence of social problems. The 2-year study included classroom observation measures of program implementation and examined the results of specific program characteristics and parent involvement as they affected achievement, locus of control, and home environment. Based on a quasi-experimental study of over 500 children and 120 parents, the program increased achievement, promoted greater feeling of being in control of one’s life, and stimulated parent involvement in school and interest in the child’s educational development.
