“…Likewise, the factors that explained 70.84 % of the variance were student interaction with tutors and tutor interaction with students (Sáiz & Román, 2011;Wentzel, 2005) and the need to improve orientation functions in the tutor (Payo & Sáiz, 2012a). All of this is directly related with the organization and planning of tutorials (Payo et al, 2013;Heimlich, 2010;Wasserman, 2010;Zabalza, 2003). The tutorial program at the university directed at student orientation beyond academic tutoring requires exhaustive planning and precise follow up (Payo & Sáiz, 2012b).…”

“…This basic psychological need, for the sense of autonomous self-regulated choice making, is integrally connected to two other basic psychological needs: one for a sense of competence and the other for sense of relatedness (Ryan, 1995). Authentic engagement-engagement that has meaningful outcomes for children, follows self-determination (Deci & Ryan, 2000;Wasserman, 2010).…”

Education scholars have demonstrated that family engagement contributes to academic success for urban children. To date, engagement models have invited families into schools. This paper presents an alternative model that invites schools into communities where families use culturallygrounded counter-narrative and self-determination to establish meaningful instances of authentic family engagement. Derived from the Youth Resiliency Institute's Journey Project (Wasserman, Sabater, and Hill, 2017), this paper grounds the model in the relevant literature and explores relationships between the model's theoretical components.
