Homework Practices: Role Conflicts Concerning Parental Involvement
Bräu, Karin; Harring, Marius; Weyl, Christin
Ethnography and Education, v12 n1 p64-77 2017
This article on hand discusses results of an ethnographic study which aims to perform a detailed description of practices of doing homework in a domestic environment. Based on the international state of research, first the question and the methodical approach will be explained, subsequently the role conflicts and stress ratios developed while doing homework in a family environment will be presented on the basis of two contrasting cases. To conclude, the homework-linked intrusion of school into familiar surroundings, regarding the parental involvement in contradictory requirements, will be analysed.
