▼ Research indicates that parent
involvement increases student achievement. This qualitative research examined 30 elementary Title I schools’ Parent
Involvement Plans (PIPs), seeking roles parents played in urban settings. This document analysis reviewed the descriptive language presented in each school’
s plan and examined for fidelity. Using Epstein’
s Six Types of Parent
Involvement and the Sample Practice, the researcher coded the Plans. Data displayed compliance with the mandated requirements of the Plans. Still, they indicated incongruencies with fidelity and alignment to proven best-practices research.

▼ Probing in purpose, this study examines the
parental
involvement practices of working class African-Americans parents
during their children'
s elementary, middle, and high school
experiences eventually leading to college. Although research
consistently demonstrates
involvement of parents contributes to
positive educational outcomes for students, the African-American
parent is considered uninvolved. The contemplation of their
involvement is measured by a system that does not take into
consideration the effects of socioeconomic, race, and racism.
Critical race theory,
Epstein'
s Framework of
Six Types of
Involvement, and Auerbach'
s study are the theoretical frameworks
used to explore the practices of this group.; The most prevalent
measurement of parent
involvement is based on knowledge,
duplication, and conformity with the system of education. Parents'
involvement is based on their ability to participate similarly with
the programs designed by schools. Practices are not and should not
be limited to chosen activities design through the needs of the
school. Through interviews, of college students and parents, the
study examined parent
involvement. The voice of the parents and of
the students used to evaluate and validate
involvement of
African-Americans consequently negating the myth of the uninvolved
parent.; Results of the study imply
involvement criteria must form
a measurement that includes the effects of socioeconomic status and
race. Additionally, definitions of
involvement activities differed
between parents and school systems creating miscues that effect
parent
involvement.

▼ THE IMPACT OF
PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT ON STUDENT SUCCESS: SCHOOL AND FAMILY PARTNERSHIP FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF STUDENTS
by
Tyler M. Bailey Kennesaw State University, 2017
In this study, the impact of school-family relationships on student success were examined through the narratives of three fifth-grade students, their teachers, and the school’
s curriculum coach. The study used these stories to understand better how student success was altered by
parental involvement in the students’ academic, social, and emotional life.
The participants were selected from the same school located in a major southeastern city. The students and teachers were in the same class (within their respective roles) and the curriculum coach was closely connected to the other five participants through his administrative role. The students varied with regards to academic ability, demographics, and socioeconomics.
Through data gleaned from interviews, the study illuminated how participant students and educators interpreted various events within the students’ academic and family lives and how those events influenced personal success. All
six narratives provided a more robust understanding regarding the interactions, relationships, communication, motivations, and responsibilities within the school-family relationship and how these elements impacted student success.
This research used a narrative method that guided analysis of significant elements and trends from the participants’ stories. Narrative research is a type of qualitative research that focuses entirely on individual narratives, whether written, spoken or otherwise visually represented. This study employed the Overlapping Spheres of Influence of Parent, School, and Community
Involvement (
Epstein, 2009) as a theoretical framework. Epstein’
s six types of identified
involvement including; parenting, communication, volunteering, learning at home, decision making, and collaborating in the community framed both the research questions and analysis within the study.
The findings of this study offer insightful personal accounts that may aid in the success of other students, families, and schools. Due to the qualitative nature of the methodology, this research, and its findings, cannot provide generalizable best practices for student success. Rather, the study offers insights that may assist educators and parents in better approaching the school-family relationship utilizing family structure, schools, and the surrounding community.
Ultimately, four areas of investment were identified in the research including; responsibility, motivation, communication, and student relationships with teachers and parents. These identified areas formed a well-rounded perspective on student success and how parents played a role in that success. Ultimately, the personal accounts imparted by the students, teachers, and curriculum coach provided valuable perspectives into their educational experiences and viewpoints and formed relevant insights to be reviewed by…

▼ Este estudo analisou o envolvimento parental de mães e pais de 138 famílias portuguesas, tendo em conta as características dos pais, da criança e do contexto/ suporte social. Utilizando a “Escala de Envolvimento Parental: Actividades de Cuidados e de Socialização” (Monteiro, Veríssimo & Pessoa e Costa, 2008), procurámos analisar a percepção dos pais sobre como dividem as tarefas relacionadas com as crianças. Constatámos que os pais ainda atribuem a maior parte das actividades de prestação de cuidados — directos e indirectos — às mães, mas que partilham de forma igualitária as actividades de socialização, sobretudo as de lazer no exterior. Verificámos ainda que o envolvimento paterno se encontra associado a variáveis como a sua idade e habilitações literárias, o género da criança e a posição que assume na fratria ou, ainda, o número de horas que a mãe passa no emprego. Numa segunda fase foi pedido às mães que preenchessem a mesma escala, mas de acordo com a forma como gostariam que as tarefas fossem partilhadas idealmente. Concluímos que as mães gostariam que tanto as actividades de cuidados, como as de socialização — com excepção da dimensão do lazer no exterior — fossem mais co-partilhadas.
This study examined parental involvement in 138 Portuguese families, analyzing parents, child, and social context/ support variables. Using the “Escala de Envolvimento Parental: Actividades de Cuidados e de Socialização” (Monteiro, Veríssimo, & Pessoa e Costa, 2008), it was verified that caregiving activities — direct and indirect — are still performed almost always by the mothers, and socialization activities are shared in an egalitarian way. The parents’ age and level of education; the child gender, and the first born child; and mothers’ work hours are related to father involvement. Mothers would like to see both caregiving and social activities shared between both parents — except the playing outdoor ones. Results are discussed within the involvement literature.

▼ The main purpose of this study was the clustering of parental behavior types and parental involvement, causal attribution of students' performance, according to the families' and children's perceptions and by extension any relationship developed between these types and student performance. The survey involved 990 students and 911 parents, with a proportional stratified sampling, from all four prefectures of Crete. Types of parental involvement were exported, according to the perception of parents and their children, as also and types of parents depending on the reasons in which they attribute the achievement of their child. Survey results showed that, when parents were engaged in "Direct Supervision" over their child and also when they attribute performance to external, uncertain factors, then the score is low. On the contrary, when parents exercise "Social Support", then the performance is high. The justification of students' progress to unpredictable still controlled factors result in negative students' performance. Finally, performance is predictable by all factors. The "Direct Supervision" of Parental scale can anticipate a negative impact on performance, while the factor "Social Support" of both groups (parents, children) gives a positive relationship. Attributing performance to "Inner child causes" and "Social Factors" is positively correlated with performance, in contrast with the attribution to "Indefined factors" which gives a negative relationship.
Κύριος σκοπός της διατριβής αυτής ήταν η ομαδοποίηση τύπων γονεϊκής συμπεριφοράς και γονεϊκής εμπλοκής, παραγόντων αιτιακής απόδοσης της επίδοσης των μαθητών από τους γονείς τους και κατ' επέκταση η όποια σχέση αναπτύσσεται μεταξύ αυτών των τύπων και της σχολικής επίδοσης του μαθητή. Στην έρευνα έλαβαν μέρος 990 μαθητές και 911 γονείς τους εκπροσωπημένοι, με αναλογική στρωματοποιημένη δειγματοληψία, από τους τέσσερις νομούς της Κρήτης. Εξήχθηκαν τύποι γονεϊκής εμπλοκής, σύμφωνα με τις αντιλήψεις των γονέων και των παιδιών τους, όπως επίσης και τύποι γονέων ανάλογα με τα αίτια στα οποία αποδίδουν την επίδοση του παιδιού τους. Από τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας διαφάνηκαν ότι, όταν οι γονείς ασκούν «Άμεση Εποπτεία» στο παιδί τους και επίσης όταν αποδίδουν την επίδοση του σε εξωτερικούς, αστάθμητους παράγοντες, τότε η βαθμολογία του είναι χαμηλή. Αντίθετα, όταν οι γονείς ασκούν «Κοινωνική Υποστήριξη» τότε η επίδοση του είναι υψηλή. Η απόδοση της επίδοσης όμως σε αστάθμητους αλλά ελεγχόμενους παράγοντες έχει ως αποτέλεσμα αρνητική επίδοση. Τέλος, την επίδοση είναι δυνατόν να την προβλέψουν όλοι οι παράγοντες. Η «Άμεση Εποπτεία» της Κλίμακας των γονέων μπορεί να προβλέψει αρνητική επίδραση στην επίδοση, ενώ ο παράγοντας «Κοινωνική Υποστήριξη» και των δύο ομάδων (γονέων, παιδιών) δίνει θετική σχέση με αυτήν. Η απόδοση της επίδοσης σε «εσωτερικά στο παιδί αίτια» και σε «Κοινωνικούς Παράγοντες» έχει θετική σχέση με την επίδοση, σε αντίθεση με τον παράγοντα «Αστάθμητοι Παράγοντες» που δίνει αρνητική σχέση.

▼ The primary purpose of this exploratory study was to determine the perceived level of preparedness for managing parental involvement and the source of that preparation among secondary teachers in parochial high schools in a south Louisiana Catholic diocese. The target population of the study was secondary parochial school teachers in Louisiana. The accessible population was secondary parochial high school teachers in one Catholic Diocese in south Louisiana. Data were collected using a survey design. Key findings indicate that most of the participants held a bachelor’s degree and that most obtained their preparation for dealing with parental involvement on their own through experience. Teachers felt generally well-prepared for managing parental involvement. However, some areas, especially Dealing with Angry/Distraught Parents, Field Trip Volunteer Activities, and Classroom Volunteer Activities were exceptions.
Additionally, most teachers attributed their level of preparation to experience, with preservice preparation identified as the source of preparation least often. Consistent with these findings, years of experience and age were found to be the factors that explained overall preparedness. According to this sample, undergraduate teacher education programs may be lacking curriculum that prepares new teachers for parental involvement. This conclusion lays the foundation for the recommendation that State Departments of Education should include, as a certification requirement, content in teacher preparation curricula on how to effectively work with parents.

▼ Does the parental involvement of interracial families have different effects on children's academic achievement compared to same-race families? This study compares parental involvement in children's education and the academic outcomes of White-Asian families and White and Asian families. Five dimensions of parental involvement are examined: educational expectations, school involvement, home involvement, parental control and parental social networks. Based on data from The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, generalized estimating equations (GEEs) are used to analyze the variability of academic achievement produced by the interaction of involvement dimensions and family types. Asian mother-White father families rank the highest in most forms of involvement. They are most active in school and most frequent in interacting with their child at home, and they also show the highest level of contacts with parents of their child's friends. However, only home-based involvement is a stronger predictor of reading scores compared to White parents families. Asian parents generally expect their child to go much further in school and tend to express higher levels of parental control. But it is home involvement that has a stronger effect on reading achievement while school involvement is a stronger predictor of math achievement. Although White parents have the lowest educational expectations for their children, their expectations and school involvement tend to have stronger effects on children's reading achievement. What improves educational attainment for children from White mother-Asian father families is not significantly different from other families.

How Much Is Too Much? Debunking the Effects of Parental Over-Involvement at Home.

▼ A general consensus hold by scholars, parents, educators, and policy makers is that
parental involvement benefits children’
s academic growth and behavioral outcome. However, recent research on over-involved parenting challenges this mainstream view. In my thesis, I examine whether increased
parental involvement leads to diminishing returns or negative effects on children’
s outcomes through focusing on three important dimensions of
parental involvement within a familial context: cultural cultivation,
parental expectations, and
parental communication. Using data from four waves of the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class (ECLS-K), from 2000 to 2007, the quadratic model reveals significant curvilinear effects of
parental involvement on children’
s educational and behavioral outcomes and its variations across different dimensions of
involvement and grade levels in early childhood. I argue that the effects of
parental involvement, whether these effects are positive, negative, or insignificant, vary by different intensities of
involvement. I find that both the short- and long-term curvilinear effects of
parental involvement on educational outcomes become stronger as children approach to their early adolescence, but the effects of
parental involvement on behavioral outcome diminish over time. These findings suggest the complex relationship between
parental involvement and children’
s educational and behavioral development and the need for reconsidering the role of
parental involvement for improving children’
s outcomes.

▼ While play in museums for children is not a new concept, there is little research on what play looks like for the adult visitor. This study investigates adult play in museum exhibits designed for family learning, using Stuart Brown’
s (2010) typology of play. Thirty visitors were observed between five exhibits at the City Museum, St. Louis MO and Science World, Vancouver B.C. Results showed that adults do play in these exhibits, and that they engage in various
types of play, typically favoring body/movement play. These findings can be used by museums to understand how to create active opportunities to fully engage adult visitors.

▼ The purpose of this study was to examine a possible
relationship between student perceptions of
parental involvement
and student goal orientation for an ethnically diverse fifth grade
elementary population from high-poverty schools. This study was
quantitative in nature and employed the Patterns of Adaptive
Learning Scales (PALS) to assess the goal orientations of
participants, and the Parenting Style
Parental Involvement (PSPI)
scale to measure student perceptions of
parental involvement. PALS
quantified mastery, performance-approach, and performance-avoid
goal orientations, while the PSPI calculated student perceptions of
parental achievement value, interest in schoolwork, and
involvement
in school functions. One hundred two fifth grade students answered
Likert-type surveys regarding their goal orientation, perceived
parental involvement, as well as four demographic questions. All
data was collected using Qualtrics Survey Software (Qualtrics Labs,
Inc., 2012) and was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the
Social Sciences. ❧ Simple linear regressions revealed that student
perceptions of
parental involvement significantly predicted both
mastery and performance-approach goal orientations, but found no
relation to performance-avoid goal orientation. Student perceptions
of
parental achievement value also predicted performance-approach
goal orientation, but was unrelated to both mastery and
performance-avoid goal orientations. ❧ A one-way analysis of
variance (ANOVA) followed by a post hoc Tukey test found a
significant difference between the low and high
parental
involvement groups in mastery goal orientation, with a large effect
size and a Kruskal-Wallis test followed by a pos hoc Mann-Whitney
showed a significant difference between the high and low, and high
and medium,
parental involvement groups with a medium and small
effect size, respectively. ❧ A two-way MANOVA was run to determine
if there were interaction effects between gender and high, medium,
and low student perceptions of
parental involvement groups that
resulted in a difference in mastery or approach goal orientations,
respectively. Results showed a lack of interaction effects as well
as a lack of main effects for gender on mastery and approach goal
orientations. ❧ The measurement of
parental involvement via student
perceptions and the assessment of a diverse elementary school
population were unique to the current study. Findings indicated
that when parents are highly involved in their child’
s education,
their child will orient themselves toward achievement either
through a mastery or performance-approach goal orientation. This
adds to the research literature that suggests
parental involvement
is an essential factor influencing student motivation. Further
research is needed to assess the relationship between student
perceptions of
parental involvement and student goal orientation
for diverse populations in race, ethnicity, age, and socioeconomic
status, and to determine the facilitative nature of
performance-approach goal orientation at different…

▼ Parental involvement in children'
s education is of critical importance in the U.
S. educational system. Therefore, it is useful to identify effective predictors of
parental involvement. The present study used multi-level analyses to examine how individual and school-level characteristics impact two forms of
parental involvement (school-based and home-based
parental involvement) in first grade and eighth grade. Several child/parent level characteristics significantly predicted
parental involvement. Parent interaction/social capital demonstrated medium to large effects across both forms of
parental involvement in both first and eighth grades. Many of the other child/parent level characteristics produced small effect sizes. Across both forms of
parental involvement there were few school-level effects that were statistically significant. Those that were statistically significant were very small in magnitude. The results of the present study may serve to inform school practices and research in the field of
parental involvement.

▼ This study addresses the critical issue of
parental involvement in the educational
process. Educational research overwhelmingly reveals the importance of
parental
involvement for students. In addition, education theorists and national education goals
mandated by legislators conclude that
parental involvement is essential to increased
student learning. The purpose of this study was to identify the beliefs of assistant
principals regarding
parental involvement. The results of this study will add to what is
known about the views and practices of assistant principals. It additionally will provide
useful information that can be distributed at professional development sessions for
educational leaders as they prepare to become the future leaders of tomorrow.
This qualitative survey research used open-ended questions and responses to
supplement the research findings emphasizing the need for
parental involvement in the
educational process. The data supports the literature in finding that
parental involvement
is crucial because it contributes to increased academic achievement in schools. Effective
parental involvement is significant because the role of the educator is changing
drastically due to government policies such as No Child Left Behind (2002). Both the
literature and the survey results indicate the often unmet need for
parental involvement
programs on campuses. The findings in this study not only add to the literature, but they
can practically inform campus administrators and school districts as a whole.

▼ In order for educators to increase
parental involvement and to better improve student success, teachers need the proper training and assistance on different methods they can use to increase
parental involvement. Due to the lack of support and resources, teachers are forced to find solutions without the proper guidance. It is important that teachers have easily ready accessible solutions to combat this difficulty that is effecting many elementary schools. If this issue is not addressed with teachers, our students will suffer because of the lack of
parental support they have in the household. To help teachers, I have created a webpage that includes supplemental information and multiple resources teachers can use to increase
parental involvement in the classroom and the overall school community.

▼ Education accountability has risen due to the requirements of the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) legislation, and practitioners are working harder, and with more creativity, than at any other time in recent history to find ways to improve student achievement. If a school fails to meet what has been determined to be "adequate yearly progress" (AYP), a mandated set of prescriptive guidelines, requirements and sanctions, are imposed by the government. One of these requirements is that an improvement plan be developed and approved by the department of education. This plan must include a listing of policies and procedures that define how the school will improve and increase the
involvement of its parents and community.
The
involvement of parents in the education of their children has been shown to have a significant impact on the student'
s achievement in school. Improving
parental involvement has become an increasingly evident theme in federal legislation over the last two decades. NCLB and other educational legislation require the adoption of parent
involvement policies that will build the schools' and the parents' capacity to work together.
Since a great number of high schools are preparing these improvement plans, now is an advantageous time for gathering information on programs, activities, and initiatives being instituted by high schools that are improving the number, as well as the quality, of the parents'
involvement in the education of their high school age children. Idea sharing, brainstorming, and heated debate are happening any time two or more educators get together.
The work of this study will be to survey high school principals, teachers, and involved parents, to determine what, in this fertile and active education environment, is working to increase the amount and quality of parent
involvement at the high school level. This information will add to the body of collective educational tools used to increase the quantity and quality of
parental involvement practices at the secondary level. Special attention will be given to
parental involvement programs that are proving effective in districts facing the added educational and social challenges that arise from poverty.

▼ Dissertação de Mestrado apresentada no ISPA – Instituto Universitário
O presente estudo consiste em explorar o envolvimento paterno, em crianças com idades compreendidas entre os 3 e os 5 anos. O principal objectivo é averiguar se actualmente damos conta de um pai mais envolvido e próximo dos seus filhos e se cada vez mais, existe uma partilha das tarefas parentais por ambos os pais. Compreender o papel do pai e a forma como este se percepciona em relação ao papel desempenhado e perceber se existem relações entre as variáveis do estudo, sentimento de competência e percepção de eficácia das tarefas parentais com o envolvimento paterno. O estudo analisou 507 famílias bi-parentais, com filhos a frequentar o Jardim-de-infância. A recolha dos dados foi realizada através de uma Ficha de Identificação e Caracterização Sociodemográfica e por três questionários: Escala de Envolvimento Parental, Escala de Sentimento de Competência Parental e Escala de Percepção de Eficácia das Tarefas Parentais. Quanto aos resultados, verificou-se uma partilha parental das tarefas no que diz respeito às dimensões Ensino/Disciplina, Brincadeiras e Lazer no Exterior e uma participação mais frequentemente associada à mãe em relação aos Cuidados Indirectos. Relativamente aos Cuidados Directos não se observou um claro consenso entre ambos os pais, mas aparentemente haverá uma maior tendência para uma partilha quase igualitária entre eles neste tipo de responsabilidades. Em relação à figura paterna, os resultados revelaram também uma forte associação entre a Percepção de Eficácia Parental, com o Envolvimento Parental, devido às fortes correlações entre algumas das dimensões destas duas variáveis. Porém, não se detectaram correlações significativas entre as dimensões da escala de Sentimento de Competência com as dimensões da escala do Envolvimento Parental. Neste sentido, os resultados apontam para a existência de um pai mais envolvido e próximo dos seus filhos, como também uma parentalidade maioritariamente partilhada por ambos os pais. É um pai mais presente, afectuoso, e mais interactivo, e sente-se em parte, competente e eficaz como pai.
The present study is to explore the paternal involvement in children aged between 3 and 5. The main objective is: to determine whether, at present, we notice a father more involved and closer to his children, and if there is an increase in the sharing of parental tasks by both parents; to understand the role of the father and how he perceives in relation to the role played; and to understand if there are any relationships between the study variables, feelings of competence and perceived effectiveness of parental tasks with parental involvement. The study analysed 507 two-parent families with children attending nursery schools. Th e gathering of data was carried out through an Identification Form and Socio-demographic Characterisation and three questionnaires: Parental Involvement Scale, Scale of Parental Sense of Competence and Perception Scale of Effectiveness of Parental Tasks. As for the results, the…

▼ Relatório da Prática Profissional Supervisionada
Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar
O presente relatório tem como objetivo relatar de forma reflexiva, crítica e fundamentada a Prática Profissional Supervisionada (PPS) realizada no âmbito do Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar, com ênfase nos contextos de creche e Jardim de Infância (JI). Esta análise crítica incide em ambos os contextos, abordando as intenções por mim definidas para a ação pedagógica.
Foi-me dada a possibilidade de vivenciar uma PPS em dois contextos e, através desta, surge um interesse com potencialidade para a identificação e elaboração de uma problemática: o papel do educador na promoção do envolvimento parental, que dá o título ao relatório, abordando esta temática de forma reflexiva. Neste sentido, é abordado o conceito de envolvimento parental, a importância da preocupação para com esta problemática nas valências abordadas, assim como a importância de estratégias adequadas e significativas para o contexto em que são desenvolvidas.
No que respeita à metodologia utilizada, recorri à investigação sobre a prática (Ponte, 2002). Porém, importa referir que esta está incorporada num ciclo de investigação-ação não completo, pelo seu curto tempo de intervenção. Desta forma, esta investigação contempla uma abordagem de natureza qualitativa.
Para a recolha dos dados necessários à investigação com enfoque no papel do educador no envolvimento parental, utilizei as seguintes técnicas: consulta documental, observação participante, entrevista semiestruturada e inquérito por questionário. Assim, tendo em conta as técnicas e os instrumentos mencionados, recorri a uma metodologia de análise de dados dedutiva
Os resultados obtidos apontam para as seguintes conclusões: o envolvimento parental revela-se importante na medida em que se afirma como a principal fonte de informação para o educador sobre a criança; para estabelecer uma relação efetiva, é necessária a criação de estratégias adequadas ao grupo alvo reconhecendo na família das crianças as suas potencialidades e fragilidades.
ABSTRACT
The major goal of this report is to explain in a reflective, critical and well-grounded way the supervised professional practice (PPS) realized in the scope of the master in pre-school education, focused in the nursery and kindergarten context. This critical analysis is focused in both frameworks, addressing the defined intentions for the pedagogical action illustrating its application.
I was given the possibility to experience a two environment PPS, and through this appears a potential interest to identify and prepare one issue: the role of the educator in the promotion of the parental involvement, which gives the title to this report, dealing with this theme in a reflective manner. In this way, covering the concept of parental involvement, the importance of the concern for this issue addressed in valences, as well as the importance of appropriate and meaningful strategies for the context in which they are developed.
When it comes to the methodology that was used, I resorted…

▼ The goal of this study was to explore the factors that contribute to academic resilience in at-risk late adolescents. Specifically, the study investigates how intrapersonal (self-efficacy, academic autonomy, locus of control) and interpersonal (
parental involvement and
parental autonomy support) factors and family income relate to academic resilience. The study was conducted using a survey with 91 juniors and seniors at a central California high school. Results support the relationship between intrapersonal factors (self-efficacy, academic autonomy and locus of control) and academic resilience of low-income adolescents. Contrary to other findings within this field, there were limited relations between
parental involvement and
parental autonomy support with academic resilience. This study also found a significant relationship between higher income level and higher GPA. Finally, students??? with lower income levels were significantly associated with a single parent family structure. Limitations and future implications are discussed.

▼ The majority of today’s traditional-age college students are from the Millennial generation, meaning, among other things, that they have a different type of relationship with their parents than previous generations. Typically, their parents
have been involved in their school lives throughout their K-12 years. Many parents expect to continue being involved while their sons and daughters are in college. Because there is a changing trend in parent-child relationships and this change is being
seen in higher education, administrators need to understand and prepare for the impact of these trends. In order to meet the challenges surrounding parental involvement and to create avenues for improvement of parent-student-institution relationships, it
is important to have a clear understanding of the underpinnings and the expectations of parents and traditional-age college students. Much of what is available in the literature today regarding parental involvement during the college years is anecdotal
and conceptual in nature. The purpose of this study was to examine parental involvement from the perspectives of today’s traditional-age college students and their parents, including the examination of several variables (race/ethnicity, gender, family
income level, educational background of the parent, having siblings in college, first generation to attend college, student classification, type of institution currently attending, or level of parental involvement in high school) to determine if
differences existed in their expectations for involvement. Additionally, 122 parent-student family unit matched pairs were examined for similarities and differences in their perceptions of parental involvement. Two parallel versions of the College Parent
Experience Questionnaire (CPEQ) were administered online: one for college students and one for their parents. Data analysis of the 502 parent respondents and 159 student respondents produced a multitude of significant findings. These findings provide
empirical data on parental involvement that will guide institutions in the development of parent programs, parent offices, and guideline for parent interactions. Additionally this information is useful when planning programs for today’s Millennial
college students.

▼ Earnings across the lifecycle depend both on
agents' initial conditions (pre-market factors, i.e., skills
individuals acquire before entering the labor market) as well as on
their labor market experience. In the following chapters I study
differences in these initial conditions and the dynamics of
earnings within and across employers.
What explains
differences in pre-market factors? Three types of inputs are
believed to determine the skills agents take to the labor market:
ability, family inputs and school inputs. Therefore it is crucial
to understand first the importance of each of these inputs. The
literature on the production of achievement has not been able to
provide an estimation that can take the three factors into account
simultaneously at the student level. Chapter 1 attempts to fill
this gap by providing an estimation of the production function of
achievement where both types of investments (families and schools)
are considered in a framework where the inputs are allowed to be
correlated with the unobserved term, ability to learn. I do this by
applying Olley and Pakes' (1996) algorithm which accommodates for
endogeneity problems in the choice of inputs for the production of
achievement and by using parents' saving for their child's
postsecondary education to control for the unobserved component
(i.e. ability to learn) in the production of skills. What makes
this saving measure informative is the fact that parents decide it
at the same time they choose the home and school inputs that will
affect the observed test score (the current outcome). However those
savings will not affect the current outcome, but instead will
affect future labor market outcomes through college choices. The
estimates for the role of family inputs are in line with previous
findings. Additionally, the estimates of school inputs show that
they are also important for the formation of students' skills even
after controlling for ability to learn. The estimates of the
production function are used to compute counterfactual exercises.
In particular, this paper evaluates what would happen if the inputs
for black students are reassigned so that their inputs are the
actual amount they receive plus the differential that white
students receive. This exercise shows that equalizing home inputs
would reduce the achievement gap by 15.6 percent while equalizing
school inputs would do it by 9.2 percent. If instead inputs are
altered only in 12th grade, home and school inputs have a similar
impact on students' achievement: school inputs would reduce the gap
by 7.2 percent while home inputs would do it by 7.4
percent.
Chapter 2 explores a further area that Chapter
1 does not discuss: whether parents substitute or complement
families and school inputs. Parents may alter the investment in
their child's human capital in response to changes in schooling
inputs. If substitutability between parental and school inputs in
the production of achievement is prevalent, then increases in
school inputs could crowd out parental inputs. If instead there
exist…

▼ The main aim of this study was to investigate the type and nature of
parental involvement on late first cycle education and the significant
involvement difference between parents of high achieving students and parents of low achieving students on their children’
s academic success in the case of Gibson School System. The method used for this study was descriptive quantitative survey method. In all 64 parents of the two groups (parents of high achieving students and parents of low achieving students) were respondents. The statistics used for analysis were the total mean scores and the t- scores. The findings are particularly helpful in that they indicated which kinds of
parental involvement are abundantly used and influence academic success and which one didn’t. Most notably
parental expectations, reading and
parental style each demonstrated a strong relationship with scholastic outcomes. Thus, it was not a particular action such as attending school functions, and checking student homework that yielded a statistically significant effect on students’ academics. Rather, variables that reflected a general atmosphere of
involvement produced the strongest results.
Parental expectations and style may create an educationally oriented environment, which establishes an understanding of a certain level of support and standards in the child’
s mind. Moreover, it would be better if qualitative researches also supplement the findings of the current study by ascertaining the ways teachers, parents, and students perceive that which
parental involvement benefits students the most.

▼ Developing effective partnerships between parents and teachers are recognised as an effective way of supporting and maintaining student achievement. This critical literature review explores the power relationships that underpin such partnerships and greatly contribute to their success. It will begin by recapping the history of parent-teacher power relationships and looking at examples of the arguments both for and against more parental power in schools. It will then look at school board of trustees as a particularly New Zealand example of attempting to improve parental power and discuss why both these and parent-teacher interviews may fail to meet their projected goals. Finally it will elaborate on some of the suggestions that have been made on improving the power relationships between parents and teachers in order to support partnerships that benefit the student.

▼ The research topic of parent involvement in schooling processes in an Aceh school is examined through qualitative case study and interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). The study focuses on exploring the parents' understanding of their involvement in schooling processes based on the six typologies of Epstein. Parent involvement in an Aceh school is a crucial issue which needs to be studied. This research provides an analysis of parents' understanding of their involvement in schooling processes, what different kinds of ways parents/homes and school communicate between each other, and whose parents are frequently involved in schooling.
The research design is based on a case study which explored the implementation of parent involvement in schooling processes in an Aceh private school. This study tried to find information concerning the parents' understanding about their involvement in schooling processes, the ways parents/homes and the school communicate with each other, and whose parents were frequently involved in schooling, from 16 parents consisting of eight mothers and eight fathers. The data included interviews of parents, and a document review that was comprised of the attendance list of the parents in school meetings and student academic reports. The steps of data analysis were covered through the transcript, and by coding and categorizing. The categories of the study were based on the six typologies of Epstein consisting of parenting, communicating, volunteering, learning at home, decision-making, and collaboration with the community. The purpose of these categories was to uncover the whole understanding of parents related to their involvement in schooling processes.
The three cores of education consisting of family, school, and community have an important role in attaining the goals of learning. The theoretical basis of parent involvement discusses several previous studies concerning parent involvement and student achievement. School and student achievement can be enhanced by involving parents in schooling processes. A good relationship between parents and school will foster the children's development in their learning. There are several barriers parent involvement in schooling, such as work demands, reluctance to attend the school, lack of communication with the school, and parents' perception of their involvement. Likewise, the reason behind parent involvement in schooling processes can be explained with attribution theory. According to Bernard Weiner's framework concerning of an attribution theory, there are four causes of motivation and emotion comprising of ability, effort, task difficulty, and luck.
This study revealed that parents' understanding regarding parent involvement in schooling processes is limited and needs to be improved. The parents have limited comprehension in the typology of Epstein, on types such as parenting, communicating, volunteering, learning at home, decision-making, and collaborating with the community. The findings indicated that parent involvement in…

▼ Parental involvement plays a very important role in the development of a child’
s formal education. This study explored various management strategies that might serve as guidelines to improve
parental involvement in primary schools. The conceptual framework that informed this study was factors that determine school effectiveness as well as Epstein’
s theory of overlapping spheres and her typology on
parental involvement that served as the theoretical framework. A qualitative research approach was used for this study, as it allowed the researcher to conduct in-depth interviews with
six principals in Southern Tshwane primary schools and examined relevant documents to collect data. The research indicates that most schools comprehend the importance of
parental involvement, yet lack structured implementation frameworks for
parental involvement. The study recommends that schools need to plan, manage and implement a
parental involvement programme according to the unique circumstances of the school.; Ukubandakanyeka kwabazali kudlala indima ebalulekile kakhulu ekuthuthukiseni imfundo esemthethweni yengane.

▼ There is compelling evidence that
parental involvement positively influences children’
s academic achievement. Its benefits occur across all socio-economic classes. In spite of its significance,
parental involvement has received scant attention in Zimbabwe. This qualitative study sought to establish how parents in a materially poor rural district of Zimbabwe were involved in their children’
s education. Barriers to their
involvement were investigated with the view to overcoming or mitigating them for the benefit of the affected primary school pupils. The attribution theory was used not only to substantially explain the status of
parental involvement in Zaka District, but also to generate strategies to promote parents’ participation in their children’
s school education. Observation, semi-structured interviews (for school heads), focus group interviews (for parents) and the open-ended questionnaire (for teachers) were used in this qualitative study covering ten primary schools. Respondents were selected through the use of chain reference sampling and sampling by case. A total of one hundred and forty (140) participants were selected. It emerged from the research that parents, teachers and school heads/principals had very limited understanding of
parental involvement. They generally thought that it was confined to activities done at school such as payment of school fees and levies, providing labour for the construction or renovation of school buildings and providing teaching/learning resources. Most teachers, school heads/principals and parents believed that parents were too poor and too lowly educated to meaningfully be involved in their children’
s education. However, there were a few parents who believed that their socio-economic status did not prevent them from participating in their children’
s education. They actually indicated useful ways in which they could be involved. The research also revealed that parents, school teachers and school heads/principals made wrong attributions about themselves and each other in connection with limited
parental involvement in their schools. Both school staff and parents, after identifying barriers to
involvement, were willing to learn about how they could overcome or mitigate the barriers. They believed that the challenges they were facing regarding
parental involvement were capable of resolution.

▼ Using Delgado-Gaitan and Trueba’
s (1991) empowerment/disempowerment definition as a framework, this dissertation investigated how Korean immigrant mothers perceived and practiced
parental involvement in their children’
s schooling, and how an empowerment/disempowerment process occurred during their
involvement. To inquire into the research questions, this study used the qualitative case study method, and five Korean immigrant mothers were the cases. The interview method was used to gather data, and an unstructured interview protocol, as well as a semi-structured interview protocol, was used for the interviews. Each mother was interviewed three times.
From this study, I found these things: For the concept of schooling, all the Korean mothers in this study agreed that schooling is all activities relevant to acquiring abilities related to having a better school life, and that the concept of
parental involvement includes all the activities to support their children’
s schooling, regardless of activity
types. In a comparison of their beliefs and their practices for
involvement, they show accord in terms of the comprehensive nature of
parental involvement. However, there were also discrepancies between their perceptions and practices of
involvement.
To get an understanding of the discrepancy issue, their
involvement experiences were explored, based on an empowerment/disempowerment framework. The Korean immigrant mothers showed distinctive features in empowerment and disempowerment while they were involved in their children’
s schooling. First, they felt contradictory feelings—guilt and pride – toward their identity, and this influenced their empowerment and disempowerment. The second feature was the struggles that the Korean immigrant mothers reported: cultural differences, exclusion, and a lack of English skill for
involvement. Last, the most salient feature to influence their empowerment/disempowerment was the standard they were using to evaluate their
involvement.
These findings were discussed in terms of the features of empowerment/ disempowerment and the factors that influenced their empowerment and disempowerment. The Korean mothers’ standard of evaluation was discussed in depth, since it was determined to be the most basic issue to impact their empowerment/ disempowerment experiences. Based on the findings, this dissertation concluded with presenting implications for teachers, educational administrators, and Korean immigrant mothers themselves, and with suggestions for future research.

O Envolvimento Parental na escolaridade dos jovens é relacionado a um melhor desempenho académico dos filhos, porém, menos é conhecido sobre as variáveis que influenciam a decisão dos pais para se envolverem. Esta investigação teve como objectivo examinar a relação entre 5 variáveis preditoras para o envolvimento, que inclui as práticas de envolvimento parental, a percepção de auto-eficácia parental, a concepção de responsabilidade, as práticas de literacia familiar e os resultados escolares das crianças. Pais (n=123) de alunos no 1º e 2º ano de escolaridade, de duas escolas públicas, responderam a um questionário sobre a sua percepção de auto-eficácia, a concepção de responsabilidade, o grau de envolvimento em 4 tipo de actividades: apoio em tarefas escolares, comunicação sobre a escolaridade, tarefas de mediação social e cultural e participação em eventos escolares e extra-escolares; e o grau de envolvimento em 3 tipo de actividades: práticas de literacia de dia-a-dia, práticas de literacia de entretenimento e práticas de literacia de treino. Os resultados revelam que as variáveis concepção de responsabilidade e práticas de envolvimento parental, não se relacionam significativamente, o que significa que, independentemente da concepção de responsabilidade dos pais, os pais encontram-se envolvidas activamente na sua escolaridade. Por outro lado, a relação entre as variáveis práticas de envolvimento parental e a percepção de auto-eficácia, bem como as práticas de literacia familiar, não seguem o mesmo padrão. Aqui, os níveis de envolvimento dos pais diferenciam-se significativamente consoante a percepção de auto-eficácia, bem como o envolvimento nas práticas de literacia familiar, sendo os valores mais elevados a favor dos pais que apresentam uma concepção de responsabilidade mais activa, bem como uma percepção de auto-eficácia mais elevada. Os resultados foram discutidos ao nível da pesquisa sobre o envolvimento parental na educação das crianças.
Parent Involvement in education is associated with positive outcomes for students, however, little is known about how parents decide to be involved in children’s education. This study aimed to examine the relationship among five predictor variables for the involvement, including parental involvement, parental role construction, parental self-efficacy, family literacy and the children’s scholar outcomes. Mothers (n=123) of children 1st and 2th-grade in 2 public schools, responded to questionnaires assessing parent self-efficacy, parental role construction, parent involvement in four types of activities: help with homework, communication about school, social and cultural mediation and activities participation in school and out school; and family literacy in three types of activities: routine practices, Training practices and entertainment practices.

▼ This study investigates the
types of
parental involvement in mathematics that occur in the home and how this is connected to children’
s attitudes towards mathematics. A mixed-method design was utilised whereby data was collected through parent and child questionnaires and a semi-structured parent interview. Fourteen families completed the questionnaire and of the 14, eight parents participated in a follow-up interview. The majority of parents and children in this study reported positive attitudes towards mathematics and parents’
involvement in homework was the most commonly reported activity. This study suggests that indirect
types of
parental involvement, such as parents’ attitudes towards mathematics, may be more important in children’
s attitudes towards mathematics than direct
types of
parental involvement, such as homework.

▼ Parental involvement is an important component of children's early school success and is recognized as a significant ingredient in reducing learner absenteeism and improving the quality of children's education. To this effect, the aim of the study was to investigate the effects of parental involvement in reducing learner absenteeism in selected primary schools of Kazungula District. The objectives were to: establish ways through which parents are involved in reducing learner absenteeism, explore the benefits of parental involvement in reducing learner absenteeism, ascertain challenges that limit parental involvement in reducing learner absenteeism and establish interventions put in place by schools to improve parental involvement in reducing learner absenteeism in three selected primary schools. A sample of 15 learners, 15 parents, 03 grade teachers and 03 head teachers were purposively drawn from three selected primary schools in Kazungula district. A descriptive research design was employed for the study. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews and focus group discussions. The data was analyzed through thematic analysis which revealed emerging themes from the study.
The findings of the study revealed that there was parental involvement in the sampled primary schools as parents participated in PTA meetings, helping children with homework, paying school fees, attending open days, volunteering at school, providing school requirements, and food. With regard to the benefits of parental involvement in reducing learner absenteeism, the study revealed that parental involvement improved school attendance, brought about understanding of the importance of attendance and relieved teachers of duties that could be performed by parents. It also increased parent contact with school, made parents become more supportive of schools and improved positive behaviour among learners.
The study established that major barriers standing in the way of parental involvement as revealed by the study were lack of communication, busy schedules among parent, and non-parent invitation to involvement. Other barriers included long distance to school, poor relationships between schools, and poverty among parents. To address the barriers, schools put in place measures such as improving communication between home and school, becoming more welcoming to parents, and encouraging parents to serve in school committees. Other were inviting parent to volunteer in school activities and attend general meetings.
