Parent-teacher
conferences are an opportunity to communicate a belief in the value
of a successful partnership between home and school. Productive
parent-teacher conferences require effective communication techniques.
Teachers can facilitate the process with active listening, positive
use of attending skills, good questioning technique, and attention
to verbal and nonverbal interactions. (TJQ)
