Abstract

The objective of this systematic literature review is to analyze the literature on parental participation in their children’s education in primary schools in Malaysia. This review procedure entails searching, screening, evaluating, and synthesizing publications on parental engagement from several electronic databases, including Scopus, Taylor & Francis, ERIC, Google Scholar, MyCite, and Research Gate. The publications included in the analysis were published within the last 10 years (2012–2021). The findings of the analysis reveal that the degree of parental involvement in their children’s education is high in most studies. Furthermore, there are several effects of parental involvement in their children’s education, with a positive effect being the most common. Some challenges faced by parents are also reported, including factors related to parents, children, teachers, and schools. This review suggests that the relationships between parents, teachers, and children could be better organized to maximize the impact of educational opportunities on children. Additionally, more empirically-based studies are needed to enhance our understanding of the effects of parental involvement on children’s learning.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) translation programs such as Google Translate, DeepL, and ChatGPT are increasingly utilized by students studying English as a Foreign Language (EFL). They offer quick translation, vocabulary support, and writing support that can help in Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). This study investigated the use of AI translation by students in planning, monitoring, and evaluating learning. A qualitative design was adopted with 30 EFL students from a North Sumatran state university. Questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were used to gather data and thematically analyze them. The results suggested that AI tools are commonly applied to read difficult texts, practice vocabulary, and proofread writing. They applied them to all stages of SRL, but with different levels of reflection. The study showed unquestionably benefits in the form of easier access to material, effectiveness, and assurance, but unequivocal risks of overdependence, mistranslation, and reduced critical thinking. It means that AI tools can assist self-directed learning if used judiciously with supervision and clear moral guidelines.
