As a child, I was too scared of the parent teacher meeting. I used to have immense trouble convincing myself that the meeting will be smooth. My parents especially, my dad was always involved in the process of teaching. He constantly used to evaluate my progress.However technology had not proliferated so much in those days and he used to solely rely on the school or myself for the grades. Today with the latest technology and use of tools, the parents can view the grades online, can compare the progress of their kid visa-vis the others and can chart the progress of their kids. What is most fascinating about the online system is that one can keep themselves updated. They can collaborate with teacher's through the online accessories available to discuss the performance of the child. Also a teacher can send a mass message to the parents inviting them for discussion, chat or views on improving the performance. As technology is progressing, the online system can simplify the process of tracking. Also this can decrease the teacher's burden because of the involvement. It will further strengthen a parent-kid relation and also foster sense of belongingness.
Involvement of parents will open channel of communication
