Parental Involvement and Difficulties Encountered Home Schooled Learners with Autism Spectrum Disorder During the COVID-19 Pandemic

This study examines the influence of parental involvement and motivation on students' mathematics achievement. Using descriptive correlational methods and questionnaires, data were gathered from 17 participating parents. The study's outcomes indicated that parents were highly engaged in their children's home-schooling endeavors, despite encountering obstacles in navigating modular lessons and structuring activities. Interestingly, conventional home-schooling conferences did not emerge as problematic for parents. Nonetheless, the study did not establish a noteworthy correlation between the degree of parental involvement and the nature of challenges encountered. The recommendation to initiate further research delves into exploring the multifaceted factors contributing to the challenges faced by ASD learners and their parents during crises.
