Review # 1 was written on 2016-05-29 00:00:00 Gina Vild Epstein, J. L., & Sanders, M. G. (2000). Connecting home, school, and community: New directions for social research. In M. Hallinan (Ed.), Handbook of sociology of education (pp. 285-306). New York, NY: Plenum. Epstein and Sanders provide a brief history of schooling in America and how different things related to home, school, and community were emphasized. They also provide a review of the research that has been done on how home, school, and community are linked. They support the Theory of Overlapping Spheres which is based on the idea of " three contexts - home, school, and community - act as overlapping spheres of influence on children and on conditions and relationships in the three contexts" (p. 287). Epstein and Sanders link how important all three contexts are and how often these links are ignored. They argue that while the three links have great influence on children, the connections between the links are "ignored" in theory, research, policy, and practice. They feel that additional research is the answer to many of the problems that afflict our current educational system. A lot of research has already been done, and the problems do not seem to be lessening so perhaps more action is needed, not more research.
