Abstract

The first place where education begins is the family. When we look at it historically, the first educational institutions were the families in the history. The family is important in modern societies as it determines the path that young people will follow, forms the basis for their successful socialization as they enter adulthood, and plays a decisive role in terms of work, career and living standards. A failure in education may result in expulsion from school or school failure, unemployment, and exclusion from society. In this study, the effects of family characteristics on education were examined by the literature review method, it was determined that many features such as family structure, socio-economic characteristics of the family, number of siblings, income, broken family, education level, behaviors of family, violence, interest, compassion, participation in education, and working environment are important factors for the academic achievement of students in education Although factors such as the individual differences of the students, the age, the school level of the children can change the effect of these positive and negative features of family, it is expected that the families should always have an educational supportive attitude and behavior, and prepare their children for the future in a healthy environment. Many families do not know how they can contribute to their children's education. For this reason, a guide on family participation can be prepared, seminars or other methods can be used to explain how families can positively affect their children's education.

Ailenin Eğitimde Yeri ve Önemi

Abstract

Eğitimin ilk başladığı yer ailedir. Tarihsel olarak baktığımızda tarihteki ilk eğitim kurumları ailelerdir. Aile, gençlerin izleyecekleri yolu belirlemesi, yetişkinliğe girerken başarılı sosyalleşmelerinin temelini oluşturması ve iş, kariyer ve yaşam standartları açısından belirleyici bir rol oynaması nedeniyle modern toplumlarda önemlidir. Eğitimde bir başarısızlık okuldan atılma veya okul başarısızlığı, işsizlik ve toplumdan dışlanma ile sonuçlanabilir. Bu çalışmada aile özelliklerinin eğitim üzerindeki etkileri literatür taraması yöntemiyle incelenmiş, aile yapısı, ailenin sosyo-ekonomik özellikleri, kardeş sayısı, gelir, parçalanmış aile, eğitim düzeyi, ailede şiddet, ilgi, şefkat, eğitime katılım ve çalışma ortamı davranışları öğrencilerin eğitimde akademik başarıları için önemli faktörler olduğu görülmüştür. Öğrencilerin bireysel farklılıkları, yaşı, okul düzeyi gibi faktörlere göre ailenin destekleyici ve engelleyici özelliklerinin etkisi değişebilmekle birlikte ailelerin her zaman eğitimi destekleyici tutum ve davranışlara sahip olmaları ve çocuklarını sağlıklı bir ortamda geleceğe hazırlamaları beklenmektedir. Birçok aile, çocuklarının eğitimine nasıl katkıda bulunabileceklerini bilmiyor. Bu nedenle aile katılımı konusunda bir rehber hazırlanabilir, ailelerin çocuklarının eğitimini nasıl olumlu yönde etkileyebileceğini açıklamak için seminerler veya diğer yöntemler kullanılabilir.
