  • Thai parents value experiential learning (88%) over rote learning and memorization (73%), and believe that both types of learning will influence their child’s capabilities to pick up skills they will need when they enter the workforce.

Perceptions of Learning by Parental Mindsets
The survey responses revealed five main parental “mindsets” in the region – The Concerned, The Realist, The Typical, The Overachiever and The Detached, along with how these parents define learning, the types of learning experiences they value, their involvement in helping their children learn, and their hopes and fears for their children’s future. HP has deduced the following categories of parental mindsets and what each mindset means.

Concerned Mindsets
Concerned parents are the most anxious about the impact of technology on their child’s learning, attention span, and social skills. Yet they are also worried that their children are not being exposed to enough. They value traditional education methods more than any other mindset – they believe children get distracted easily when reading e-devices and that children learn more through print

Realist Mindsets
Parents value experiential learning, cultural activities, play, and exposure to new technology. They are open-minded, pragmatic and want to give their children real-world exposure. They want their children to develop skills that can be used beyond the classroom, and that will help them excel in life. This group views digital devices favorably, mainly because these devices can expose their children to other cultures and ideas

Typical Mindsets
Parents value developing real-world skills, and value experiential learning. Parents with this kind of mindset were also more likely to view both digital and print approaches as being suitable for a variety of learning outcomes such as developing a child’s vocabulary and comprehension skills.

Overachiever Mindsets
Well-known as “Tiger Parents”, parents with the overachiever mindset demand a greater interest in helping their children learn to control the pace and content of learning and to expose their children to new ideas. They believe that digital devices expose children to other cultures and ideas, while print and physical learning fosters social interaction.

Detached Mindsets
Detached parents are the most introverted out of all the mindsets. They spend the least amount of time learning with their children but they are keen for their children to develop interpersonal and social skills, possibly because they tend to be introverts themselves. They value rote learning, tuitions, and cultural activities learning more. Detached fathers often admit that their wives are more involved in teaching their children.

Among Thai parental mindsets, there are 31% of the Realist, 17% of The Detached, 17% of The Typical, 22% of The Concerned, and 13% of The Overachiever.
