| dc.description.abstract | The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced educational institutions across the globe,
especially the way of parents involved in their children's school and learning
process. The transformation does not only affect teachers and students but also
parents which makes them more involved in supporting their children's learning
process. The aim of this study is to explore in what way parents become involved
in their children’s online learning process. This research employs a qualitative
approach as a research design. The participants of this study were two parents of
elementary school students who are currently or have been doing school online due
to the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were collected from interviews as the main
source in this study. This study used descriptive analysis to analyze the data
findings. The results of this study show parents involvement and support for
learning, parents’ involvement and support for activities, parents’ involvement of
school activities, and the purpose of parents’ involvement of online learning
activities. Furthermore, parental involvement in supporting children in school
activities or learning activities can be optimized in providing attention, motivation,
direction, or facilities to support children's learning activities online. Parents can
also provide assistance when their children experience difficulties so that all their
children's learning or school activities can continue to be carried out properly. | en_US |
