MGRP Process

At first, the MGRP paper seemed really overwhelming. The idea of a 6 page research paper based on a topic that I didn't really have any prior knowledge about. However, once the actual paper was out of the way, I actually enjoyed working on the genres. Our topic was parent involvement, so I did genres that I could actually use in my line of work.
Overall, the whole project really opened my eyes to the problems lack of parent involvement causes and how to address them. I will admit, I used to think that an uninvolved parent used to just simply be because the parent just didn't want to be part of their child's education. This project taught me otherwise, and that as an educator we must look deeper into the reasons a parent is not able to be part of their child's education. The project was a great learning experience for me.
