Abstract: | The purpose of this research was to investigate the perceptions of home and school concerning ideally implemented primary
democracy and human rights education. In this qualitative study, data were collected from six voluntary classroom teachers
and 16 parents in a selected school through interviews. The results of the interview yielded five major themes: physical and
environmental issues, instructional process, teacher characteristics, assessment practices, and communication patterns for
teaching democracy and human rights ideally. Most of the participants also indicated the lack of partnership between home
and school. The results showed that there are gaps between the existing and desired conditions of democracy and human rights
education in schools. |
