The objectives of this study are 1) to analyze the effectiveness of a writing composition intervention program aimed to increase children's writing performance and other personal variables; 2) to analyze whether implementation in the environment (school and home) or responsible figures (parents and teachers) produced different effects in program effectiveness; and 3) to check whether increasing parental involvement in doing homework was sufficient to improve children's outcomes or whether prior family training is required to enable them to be efficient. The sample consisted of 112 students (5th-6th grade) and their families. 26 of them made up the EFP group (mothers implementing a writing program), 25 of them were assigned to the PAD group (mothers increasing help with writing homework), 35 to the PRO group (teachers applying a writing program) and 26 to the OC group (ordinary curriculum). We analyze the results and present and discuss our conclusions. Instrucción estratégica de la composición escrita en la escuela y el hogar ResumenLos objetivos de este estudio fueron: analizar la eficacia de un programa de intervención en composición escrita para aumentar en los niños su rendimiento en escritura y el desarrollo de otras variables personales; analizar si existen efectos diferenciales en la efectividad del programa en relación al entorno (escuela-hogar) y las figuras (padres-profesores) responsables de su aplicación; y, finalmente, comprobar si es suficiente incrementar la implicación parental en los deberes de escritura de sus hijos, para que los alumnos mejores sus resultados, o si la familia requiere previamente una formación que les capacite pare ello. La muestra estuvo formada por 112 alumnos (5º-6º grado) y sus familias. 26 de ellos constituyeron el grupo EFP (madres aplicaron programa), 25 fueron asignados al grupo PAD (madres ayuda en deberes), 35 formaron el grupo PRO (maestros aplicaron programa) y 26 constituyeron el grupo OC (currículo ordinario). Se analizan los resultados, presentando y discutiendo las conclusiones.

at home, the parents themselves, in their natural process of encouraging their children's communicative development, sometimes also seem to forget writing (Cusumano, 2008). Consequently, the writing aspect of communicative competence is poorly addressed by schools and families, which tend to focus, when they devote their attention to writing, primarily on mechanical elements. They do so to the detriment of the more complex issues, aspects of higher order that would lead to true written competence, and whose complexity, according recent theoretical models, requires greater attention. This model emphasizes that writing is a highly demanding task, dependent on several modulating factors of cognitive and emotional nature, that requires the implementation of a set of specific mental processes related to planning, editing and revising the text, which require a big cognitive effort and mean it is unlikely for students to complete them successfully exclusively through the use of natural abilities (
The study analyses the relationship between the students condition (specific learning disabilities-LD and non learning disabilities-NLD) and parents implication-satisfaction in their education and also aims to identify the predictive power of family satisfaction over their involvement. The sample consisted of 332 families from students identified with and without learning disabilities. Parents completed the Family Opinions: FAOP scale . Results show that parents of LD students are less involved in the school than NLD parents, although, at home the collaboration of the two groups is similar. Besides the families of LD students show a pattern of satisfaction with the school similar to the parents of NLD children, although they differ in some items negatively. Has identified little predictive power of parental satisfaction over involvement.Keywords: Learning disabilities, family educational implication, parental satisfaction. ResumenEste estudio persigue identificar la relación entre la tipología de los hijos, dificultades específicas de aprendizaje (DEA) y sin dificultades (SD), y la implicación-satisfacción educativa de sus padres, así como la capacidad predictiva de la propia satisfacción parental con la escuela sobre su implicación. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 332 familias de alumnos identificados como estudiantes SD y con DEA. Los progenitores respondieron a varias escalas del instrumento Opiniones Familiares: FAOP (Robledo y García, 2007). Los resultados señalan que los progenitores de alumnos con DEA se implican en el centro educativo menos que los de niños SD, si bien, en el hogar, la colaboración de los dos grupos es similar. Además los familiares de estudiantes con dificultades muestran un patrón de satisfacción con la escuela semejante al de los padres de niños SD, si bien en algunos elementos difieren negativamente. Se ha identificado escaso poder predictivo de la satisfacción sobre la implicación parental.Palabras clave: Dificultades específicas de aprendizaje, implicación educativa familiar, satisfacción parental.
