Parents who are also educational researchers have access to a
domain that is highly complex and not always available to other
scholars. In this book, parent-researchers provide theoretical and
practical insights into children's learning in the home and at
school. Readers are given a window into learning in the home
context and how all family members organize or engage in that
learning. Working on two levels, the book develops scholarly
discussions about learning in the home (how is it organized, who
the participants are, and what children are learning), and it
illustrates the impacts that outside institutions, in particular
schools, have on families It is unique in showcasing
parent-research as a type of research paradigm with particular
aspects and challenges. Both teachers and researchers can learn
from these studies as they show the impact that schooling has on
families and how institutional discourses and beliefs can both
positively and negatively affect the dynamics of any family.
