Abstract

This paper shares the results of a meta-analysis on the association between parent-teacher interaction using technologically-based communication and parental-involvement, and its association with the academic and behavioral outcomes of urban students. This meta-analysis includes 31 quantitative studies and well over 20,000 students. The results indicated that statistically significant effects did not emerge, except to some degree at the elementary school level. The significance of these results is discussed.
