Homework-Communication Problems Among Parents, Classroom Teachers, and Special Education Teachers

Abstract: JL. UBLIC EDUCATION HAS EXPERIENCED A LONGand turbulent history of criticism and reform focused on virtually every aspect of its service to children and adolescents. However, perhaps at no time has the American educational system come under closer scrutiny than during the 1980s and early 1990s as professionals, business leaders, and politicians, as well as parents and other laypersons, have increasingly called for improving the quality of education at all levels. A number of national commissions and reports ha… Show more

“…Homework performance of children with LD is influenced by not only child and teacher skills, but also parent skills (Bryan, Burnstein, & Bryan, 2001). Unfortunately, parental feelings of inadequacy may inhibit parent-school collaboration (Burke, 2013), and their doubts about their ability coupled with unpleasant homework interactions tend to have negative effects on family life (Jayanthi et al, 1995).

“…Perceptions of parents may differ from those of teachers for several reasons, including different levels of training and expertise, different relationships with the student=child, and opportunities to observe the child interact with homework assignments in different contexts (school versus home). The degree of agreement between parents and teachers may also be affected by the quality of communication regarding homework, a variable that could not be assessed with the relatively restricted sample drawn in the Jayanthi et al (1995a) study. Second, the perceptions of both special and general education parents regarding the homework communication problems reported by Jayanthi et al (1995a) will be described and compared.…”
