The Education in elementary school is a very important factor. Because the elementary school level is the foundation for the development of children's thinking and learning abilities influences and influences to the next level. The purpose of this research is to determine the academic achievement of students who are influenced by the parent’s education level. This research used a quantitative approach with a correlation test. The research conducted at Elementary school of 105 Tampan Pekanbaru to all of grade V students, with 150 total students. The Researcher used the Krejcie and Morgan tables sampling with 108 students. Based on the results of the correlation test shows that the magnitude of the father's education correlation coefficient on student academic achievement is 0.012 while the correlation of maternal education to student academic achievement is 0.081. Both are below the value of the r product moment correlation coefficient table for a sample of 108 with a significance level of 5% that is equal to 0.187. Thus the hypothesis H0 is accepted, it means that there is no meaningful relationship between parental education and student achievement.

Connections between principal leadership activities, school context, and student achievement are examined within this paper. Data for this quantitative study are from the 2013 Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) and the 2012 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). The eight countries of examination participated in both the TALIS and PISA and the researchers merged datasets, yielding a study sample of 1,301 schools. This paper supports a context-specific view of instructional leadership. When looking across countries, the researchers found different practices were more strongly associated with the academic achievement of students, and suggest that school leaders have a meaningful overall relationship with academic achievement, both directly and indirectly. This study therefore supports prior research about the direct and indirect effects of instructional leadership. Further study, which accounts for differences in family academic resources and school-level opportunities to learn, will better illuminate the connection between instructional leadership practices and academic achievement.

AbstractStudy ObjectivesPoor sleep and daytime sleepiness in children and adolescents have short- and long-term consequences on various aspects of health. Midday napping may be a useful strategy to reduce such negative impacts. The effect of habitual napping on a wide spectrum of cognitive, behavioral, psychological, and metabolic outcomes has not been systematically investigated.MethodsThis study characterized midday napping habits in 3819 elementary school children from the China Jintan Cohort Study. In 2011, weekly nap frequency and average duration were collected once from students at grades 4–6. Prior to their completion of elementary school at grade 6 (in 2011–2013 respective to each grade), the following outcomes were collected once: behavioral and academic achievement evaluated by teachers, and self-reported positive psychology measures including grit, self-control, and happiness. IQ tests were conducted on a subgroup. Metabolic indices, including body mass index and fasting glucose concentration, were measured through physical exams. For the whole sample, we assessed associations between napping and each outcome, adjusted for sex, grade, school location, parental education, and time in bed at night. We also conducted stratified analyses on grade 6 (cross-sectional), grade 4 (2-year gap), and grade 5 (1-year gap) data.ResultsOverall, napping was significantly associated with higher happiness, grit, and self-control, reduced internalizing behavior problem, higher verbal IQs, and better academic achievement, although specific patterns varied across frequency and duration for different outcomes. More limited significant associations were found for decreased externalizing behavior problems, compared to non-nappers, while no significant associations were found for performance IQ and metabolic outcomes.ConclusionsResults indicate benefits of regular napping across a wide range of adolescent outcomes, including better cognition, better psychological wellness, and reduced emotional/behavioral problems. The current study underscores the need for further large-scale intervention studies to establish causal effects.

Abstract.ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS AND THEIR DIFFERENT HOMEWORK INVOLVEMENT PROFILES DEPENDING ON ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTThe present study aims to find out whether there are differences in homework involvement (in terms of amount of homework completed, time spent on doing homework and homework time management) among students with various levels of achievement. Gender and school level have been controlled as they may impact on the relation intended to be studied and this way they have been included in the covariate performed in the design. The sample consisted of 535 students from the three last years of Elementary School. Findings suggest that the more students achieve higher the more they improve their level of involvement relating to the amount of homework completed and the quality of homework time management. On the other hand, although no statistic significant differences have been found concerning the relation between achievement and time spent on homework, students who achieve lower tend to spend more time completing homework compared to those achieving higher who prove to spend less time completing the assignments. Furthermore, as students go from fourth to sixth forms their time spent on homework increases however, the quality of their homework time management deteriorates.Keywords: amount of homework completed, time spent on homework, homework time management, academic achievement, Elementary School.Resumen.El objetivo de este trabajo fue comprobar si hay diferencias en la implicación en los deberes escolares (en términos de cantidad de deberes escolares realizados, tiempo dedicado a los deberes y aprovechamiento del tiempo) en función de los distintos niveles de rendimiento académico de los estudiantes. Debido al posible efecto que pueden tener en esta asociación el género y curso, se controló sus efectos incorporándolas como covariables en el diseño. La muestra está integrada por 535 estudiantes de los tres últimos cursos de Educación Primaria. Los resultados indican que a medida que los niveles de rendimiento académico de los estudiantes son más altos, hay un aumento progresivo en la cantidad de deberes realizados y en el aprovechamiento del tiempo dedicado a los deberes. Por otra parte, aunque no parece haber diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el tiempo dedicado a los deberes en función de los distintos niveles de rendimiento, la tendencia que se observa es que cuando el rendimiento es bajo, el tiempo dedicado a los deberes es mayor, mientras que cuando el rendimiento es alto, el tiempo que dedican los estudiantes a los deberes es menor. Además, otro resultado destacado es que según van avanzando los estudiantes de 4º a 6º curso de Primaria se produce un aumento progresivo del tiempo que dedican a hacer los deberes escolares y, sin embargo, el aprovechamiento que hacen de ese tiempo va siendo cada vez menor.Palabras clave: cantidad de deberes escolares realizados, tiempo dedicado a los deberes escolares, aprovechamiento del tiempo dedicado a los deberes, rendimiento académico, Educación Primaria.
