Role of Parental Involvement in Student’s Academic Achievement: A Study of Students’ Perspective

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Active involvement of parents in their children's academic pursuits is widely recognized as a pivotal element in their educational advancement. While there is substantial literature on parental engagement from the perspective of parents, there is a dearth of research regarding students' own perceptions and experiences of parental involvement. This study aims to address this gap by exploring students' experiences, perspectives, and opinions regarding parental involvement and its impact on their academic journeys. This research will utilize a qualitative research method to explore the nature of parental involvement and its consequences on students' academic accomplishments. Qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interview from ten respondents to find out their parent involvement in their academic achievement. Interpretative Phenomenological approach was combined with Thematic Analysis to analyze the collected data. By delving into the students' perspectives, the research seeks to provide insights into the nuanced nature of parental involvement and its resonance with students' academic experiences. Additionally, the study will explore the implications of the findings for fostering meaningful partnerships among stakeholders and empowering students towards academic success. Through this research, we aim to bridge the disparity between theoretical concepts and real-world experiences, providing valuable insights that can inform educational policies and practices. Ultimately, our goal is to provide parents, educators, and policy-makers with a deeper understanding of students' viewpoints on parental involvement, fostering collaborative efforts to support students' academic success and overall development.
