Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parental involvement plays an essential role in the United States (U.S.) educational system. However, parental involvement poses many challenges for Hmong parents in American schools. Many assumptions are made on the parts of teachers, staff, and Hmong parents about parents' roles pertaining to their involvement in their children's education. Hmong parents struggle to reconcile beliefs, attitudes, and values that they bring with them from Laos with the expectations found in the U.S. due to their unfamiliarity with the U.S. educational system. This study employed the used a qualitative, descriptive case study approach to examine the perceptions of Hmong parents involvement at a K-6 Hmong American charter school in Northern California. The primary data collection method used in this study was interviews with four school-community stakeholder groups. The purposeful-selected interview participants included two administrators, four teachers, six parents, and four students. The interviews were dialogically coded and nine themes were developed related to parental involvement. These nine themes were: communication with parents, committee involvement, flexibility of staff, enrichment programs non-traditional school schedule, importance of field trips, cultural events and presence of other cultures, recommend school to others, and positive behavioral reinforcement. The study concludes with a presentation of the implications of the nine themes on the design of parent involvement models and recommendations are offered related to policies and connected strategies for how to design culturally relevant supports for parent involvement in education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an educator witnessing students not complete their school work or parents communicating with the school, the lack of parental support is a frequent occurrence each school year. Students' academic success does not solely rely on students, but also on their parents and those within the student's environment. There have been numerous parental involvement studies on diverse populations but there has not been one specifically on English Language Learners (ELLs) Hmong parents. Since the Hmong has grown significantly within the last 40 years; a problem that Hmong still face is a lack of support for those not achieving academic success because they are "lumped" together with other Asian ethnic groups, which often hides their academic struggle. As indicated by Hing (2012) over one-third of all Hmong, Cambodian, and Laotian Americans over the age of twenty-five do not have a high school diploma. Almost 70% of Indian and over 50% of Chinese, Pakistani, and Korean-Americans over the age of twenty-five have a bachelor's degree, while Cambodian, Hmong, and Laotian-Americans who have bachelor's degrees average around 13% (Hing, 2011). This is a critical issue because Hmong students are not receiving the resources and the help needed to attain academic success within the educational system. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of parent involvement workshops and training on Hmong-speaking parents' participation in their child's education at home. A series of 9 workshops focused on various forms of reading comprehension instruction implemented through shared reading provided in English and/or Hmong. The methods used by Hmong parents during reading to help their child were examined as well as if access to reading strategies in their primary language impacted the support they provided their children in reading. Communication between the home and school were also examined to see if there was an increase in communication after participating in the workshops. Pre-and post qualitative data came from the 4 parent participants of second grade students that consisted of parent survey and interviews. This data was analyzed to help understand the developmental growth of the parents. Also the 4 second grade students whose parents were participants in this study were interviewed to help document what parents were doing different at home. The results of qualitative data collected indicate an increase in parental involvement after participation in the training and workshops. Before the workshops, 1 out of 4 parent participants was helping their child at home and on reading. However after the study, all 4 parent participants were engaging and talking more with their child at home on homework and reading. The Hmong parents' definition of "help" changed. Before the workshops, parents' deifined "help" as being able to decode. If the parents could not read, then they could not help. Now parents described helping their child by talking and questioning what their child was reading, which ultimately will help their child's literacy development.

Book Synopsis How Do Cultural Familiarity of the School Climate, Transaction, and Obligation Social Values Strengthen Hmong Parent Involvement Commitment in Twin Cities Schools? by : Andrew Xiong
Download or read book How Do Cultural Familiarity of the School Climate, Transaction, and Obligation Social Values Strengthen Hmong Parent Involvement Commitment in Twin Cities Schools? written by Andrew Xiong and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earlier research revealed that urban school districts with large Hmong populations used established parent involvement strategies that focused on middle class and mainstream protocols. Furthermore, research hypothesized that parents in school communities with low-socio economic status and limited English capabilities within unique social construct groups may not have aligned their commitment preference with the obligation-centered partnership model used by many mainstream schools. Studies of Hmong parent involvement indicated a lack of effectiveness and unexplored areas regarding unique preferences in terms of involvement with schools. This quantitative, mean difference, social value study attempted to determine whether Hmong parents with K-12 children in the Twin Cities have different preferences regarding involvement in school activities than non-Hmong parents. The study concluded that Hmong parent involvement commitment was more influenced by a cultural familiarity of school climate than transactional or obligation social value factors. Strong relationships and trust of people or individuals at their children's school were more critical and influential in motivating Hmong parents to commit more parent involvement effort.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hmong immigrated to the United States about 30 years ago from their homeland Laos after the defeat of the Vietnam War in 1975. They have been faced with many struggles as the Hmong try to settle into a culture so different and demanding as compared to their homeland. It has been a difficult journey for many Hmong as they try to assimilate to the American culture while holding onto the customs and traditions they all believe in. The Hmong are still faced with many difficulties and barriers after all these years. However, they value education very much as they believe that education is the way to be successful in America. Although most Hmong value education and understand the importance of it, they have a difficult time being involved in the educational system and their child's education. This is due to many barriers that they are faced with: language barriers, their own lack of education, poverty, teacher perceptions, and cultural differences. The purpose of this critical analysis of research is to examine the different barriers that Hmong families and parents are faced with that impose as a hindrance on involvement in their child's education. It examines language barriers, education level, poverty, and cultural differences. Furthermore, it looks at teacher perceptions which also act as barriers for parent involvement. Finally, this critical analysis of research will give recommendations for future research after analyzing current research available. It will also give recommendations for educators as they work with Hmong parents and families to try to bridge the cultural gap that exists.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study examined the family involvement of parents with children in grades one through five to examine potential differences in family involvement between Caucasian parents and Hmong parents. Potential differences in family involvement as children age were also examined. Two hundred and forty seven parents were sampled from three elementary schools located in a small Midwestern town using a 42-item survey. A Caucasian mother and father, as well as a Hmong mother, were interviewed to gather qualitative information. A MANCOVA, which controlled for parent level of education and income, revealed no significant results. There was no significant difference in levels of School-based involvement reported by Hmong and Caucasian parents. The parent interviews indicated that both Caucasian and Hmong parents noted barriers to being involved at school (i.e., economic status and having small children at home). Due to limitations of the current study, directions for future research within this area are suggested.

Download or read book The Perspectives of Hmong Parents' Role in Their Children's Post-secondary Education written by Ka H. Lysongtseng and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hmong people have been living in the United States for more than four decades, primarily in the states of California, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. The Hmong came to the United States as refugees from Laos when that country was overtaken by the Communist Pathet Lao in 1975. The Hmong have made great strides in assimilating into their new culture and society; however, a number of research studies have shown that Hmong students are struggling in higher education institutions today. In 1976, when the first Hmong refugees began entering the U.S., more than 70 percent of them had no prior education, either in Laos or while living in the transition camps in Thailand. Even so, many have successfully attained college degrees and live prosperous lives. The purpose of this action research project is to understand Hmong parents' view of the roles they play in their children's success in college education in the U.S. The research was conducted among six maternal parents residing in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews. The results indicated that the participants' high regard for education, their active involvement in their children's school activities, their provision of financial support, and their practice of early reading to their children (some even in utero), were important components in their children's educational success.

Download or read book Building Parent Engagement in Schools written by Larry Ferlazzo and published by Linworth. This book was released on 2009-09-23 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a report on the positive impact of parental involvement on their child's academics and on the school at large. Building Parent Engagement in Schools is an introduction to educators, particularly in lower-income and urban schools, who want to promote increased parental engagement in both the classroom and at home—an effort required by provisions of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. It is both an authoritative review of research that confirms the positive impact of parental involvement on student achievement and a guide for implementing proven strategies for increasing that involvement. With Building Parent Engagement in Schools, educators can start to develop a hybrid culture between home and school, so that school can serve as a cultural bridge for the students. Filled with the voices of real educators, students, and parents, the book documents a number of parent-involved efforts to improve low-income communities, gain greater resources for schools, and improve academic achievement. Coverage includes details of real initiatives in action, including programs for home visits, innovative uses of technology, joint enterprises like school/community gardens, and community organization efforts.
