Effect of parental engagement on children's home-based continued learning during COVID-19–induced school closures: Evidence from Uganda
By James Wokadala
This study examines the effect of parental engagement on children's continued learning amid COVID-19–induced school closures in Uganda, where the government's distance learning program had limited coverage. The results show that children from households with more parental engagement are more likely to engage in learning activities at home when primary schools are closed. A significant effect of parental engagement is found in rural areas as well. Furthermore, we found that, in rural areas, the level of parental engagement is significantly more correlated with home-based learning among children from government schools than those from private schools. © 2023 The Authors
