learning.

activities, e.g. reading, writing, solving etc.
 It can be ensured by allotting proper time and advising

19. Cont..
Helpful for children to improve their reading, writing and
pronunciation.
 The study results revealed that parent’s level of supervision is
weak or non-effective to monitor their children activities.
 In order to ensure effective learning, time management might be
helpful to monitor their children activities at home and out of
home to use time efficiently in students studies.
 The study only focuses on the impact of attitude and behaviour of
parents towards their children learning, It does not tell about
factors influence parents attitude and behaviour towards their
children learning. The study on parent’s attitude and behaviour
modifiers might be helpful to find out ways for effective learning
of children.
 Research work on strategies that ensure parents effective
involvement in their children learning would also be helpful for
parents to enable them to practically involve in their children
studies.
