Peer reviewedBarrett, David E.; Neal, Kathy S. – Educational Research Quarterly, 1992
Effects of participation in a telephone homework-assistance program on academic achievement were examined for 46 fifth graders and were compared with 44 who received no telephone homework assistance. Few children actually used the service, and no positive effects of its use were found on achievement test results, grades, or self-esteem. (SLD)
