Sadly, this is not the case in Malaysia where family members were not always involved with children’s home-based teaching and learning (PdPR). “So the sudden shift in educational responsibility from school to family may have overwhelmed parents.”The study was conducted on Instagram with over 6,800 bumiputra secondary school students giving their take on the efficacy of PdPR. The study also revealed that 24% of students attended PdPR irregularly, while 22% did not even show up for lessons. Only 8% of poor children were studying online regularly and 37% were not studying at all. Of the few who were studying online, 24% were in cities, and just 8% in villages.
