Abstract: | Action research project on and for the handicapped - Parents - Partners in Action: One of the most important factors in determining the success of our work is the importance we give to working together-to being a team. Therefore it seems natural that parents are considered an integral part of the team. One of the first steps in the development of the Action-Research Project, was a meeting with the headmaster and teachers at the Wardija School which was chosen from among other schools. The team members discussed and explored with the school staff possible ways of presenting the Project to the parents. With help from the Headmaster, teachers and the Schools' Parents Association a meeting was held at the school which had a turnout of 70% of the parents. The Project was presented from its varying aspects by the different team-members. Afterwards there was ample time for questions and informal discussion. We ate, drank and talked about the children and about the process that was planned. |
