EXTENT OF PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT ABOUT THEIR LEVEL OF MOTIVATION AMONG BS CRIMINOLOGY STUDENTS OF ISAP; A BASIS FOR ACADEMIC POLICIES, REVIE, W AND IMPLEMENTATION

Abstract

A parent's lack of involvement in their child's education can have a detrimental impact on the child's motivation and learning interest, as well as raise the school failure rate. The majority of parents these days do not participate in their children's education, and those who do may not be aware of the kinds of involvement that best indicate their children's academic success. This research aimed to investigate the role of Parental Involvement in the Level of Motivation among BS Criminology Students of the International School of Asia and the Pacific. It also focuses on assessing the degree of parental involvement and the innate drive for academic success. The researcher used a quantitative technique and a survey questionnaire to conduct this study. A sample of 183 students and their parents were given two separate questionnaire surveys. All of these participants were selected through stratified random sampling. With this process, a random selection is made of a representative number of participants from different subgroups who are capable of being included in the sample. To treat the data, the researcher used a statistical test frequency count, percentage distribution, weighted mean, and ANOVA to determine the difference between the two variables. The study revealed that most of the time parents involved themselves in their children's learning motivation to achieve academic success. Also, there is a significant difference in the assessment of the respondents on the level of parental involvement and motivation of respondents, when grouped according to profile variables. The researchers recommended that the parents should spend time with their children and discuss their academics at home. Parents should have frequent interactions with teachers and management of institutions to know how they can add more towards the academic betterment of their children. These practices collectively contribute to a supportive and nurturing environment that is vital for children's academic success and overall well-being.
