Although the literature reviewed examined homeschool supports like curricula, homeschool cooperatives, and community engagement, there was limited research on homeschool Facebook groups as a support. The theoretical framework for this study was Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory, being informed by both the Triadic Reciprocal Model and the concept of self-efficacy. This study was exploratory, using various sources of data to triangulate and develop trustworthiness. The main question in this study was: In what ways are homeschool Facebook groups a support for homeschooling parents? This had two sub-questions. The first was: What aspects of the homeschool environment have been influenced, in some way, by participating in a homeschool Facebook group? The second sub-question was: In what ways do homeschooling parents perceive that they may be influential to others through their participation in a homeschool Facebook group? A second main question was: What are the personal reasons that lead to parents choosing to homeschool? Thesis eng https://hdl.handle.net/2142/120245 Copyright 2023 Shelby Hand Ed.D.
