Author(s): Aysel TÜFEKCİ AKCAN

The data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The findings indicate that participants placed greater emphasis on the academic and functional values of literacy than on its experiential value. In addition, they highlighted child-related and family- and home-life-related factors, touching only briefly on some of the larger institutional and socio-cultural factors contributing to literacy success/failure of their student
