dc.description.abstract |
[eng] The fact that parents are a key figure in a student’s academic development has
been widely proven over the last years. According to that, this study has the
main purpose of examining the influence that a person’s family may have on
their children’s decision of studying a language-related degree or not. By doing
this, it seeks to demonstrate that those parents who have been involved in the
language learning process have then in many cases –whether actively or
passively– encouraged their children to study or not a language-related degree.
With a view to solving this matter, a questionnaire has been sent to two different
groups of parents: half of them parents of students enrolled in a degree related
to languages and half of them parents of students who are not or have not
studied a degree of this kind. The responses received from these two groups
have then been analysed in accordance with various aspects such as parents’
formal education, language learning interest, participation in their children’s
language learning processes and children’s academic training. In general terms,
the results indicate that today parents are highly aware of the importance of
learning languages and that, regardless of whether they like studying languages
or not, they show willingness to contribute to their children’s language learning
process. It is for this reason and taking into account the information collected
that a didactic proposal with different activities will be included at the end of this
dissertation to enhance parent’s involvement in their children’s study choices,
especially regarding the learning of foreign languages. |
