Week 5 Discussion Question 
I-Esha Rivera 
EDU671: Fundamentals of Educational 
Research (MRD1423B) 
Instructor: Deborah Naughton 
Thursday July 3rd, 2014
Does Parental Involvement Help 
to Improve and Maintain a 
Student’s Academic Standing?
Participants of the Study 
 3 Students all age 9, 
who are at the core of 
the research. 
 Their parent(s). 
 In addition to 25 
Random participants who 
will complete surveys on 
the topic.
Purpose of the Study 
 The purpose of the study is to note the impact of 
parental involvement and if it has positive baring on 
failing students. 
 Currently, there is no parental involvement in regard to 
these students, education is handled solely by the 
teachers and the tutors of the three students. 
 There has been interest expressed by the students, 
indicating a need for parental involvement.
Problems 
Indicating Need 
for Study. 
There have been multiple issues 
that have arisen to prompt this 
study. 
1. Homework rarely done 
2. Students lack of interest 
3. Teacher and Tutor(s) 
complaints of parental 
involvement 
4. Parent complaints of “they 
don’t have time and the 
teachers and tutors help my 
child”. 
5. Student failing 2 or more 
subjects consistently. 
6. Behavioral and Truancy
Plan of Intervention 
 Over an eight week period, I will 
be sending homework packets 
with the three students, to 
complete with their parents. 
 These homework packets must 
be signed off on by the parents 
in addition to, the parent 
assisting the student with the 
packet. 
 The packets will contain, math, 
reading, spelling, biology and 
other subjects for the student 
and the parent to complete 
together. 
 Each week a test will be given to 
see if grades are improving due 
to the intervention.
Process Sample 
Sample Week - 
Monday – Homework packet sent home on Reading Comp. Tuesday Packet sent home on 
Addition/Subtraction. Wednesday Packet sent home on Science. Thursday packet sent 
home on Spelling. Friday Packet sent home on Writing. The weekend packet that will be 
sent home will include Multiplication, Division and Biology. Phone call to parents on 
Monday evening discussing how the week went and if they noticed any interests or 
difficulties within their child. They will also be asked to complete a survey at the end of the 
weekend packet. 
A chart of the 
students grades 
will be kept, to 
note any 
improvement.
Qualitative and Quantitative Methods will be 
used in obtaining the information. 
*Survey/parents/students/ 
random 
*Observation 
*Focus groups
