Abstract
Family promotion in educational work is always a challenge for the educational system, since it is an essential component of learning improvement. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to explain to what extent the virtual program of dialogic literary gatherings (PVTLD) influences family participation in school. It was based on a quantitative approach and a pre-experimental design with a sample selection of 30 family members (adult relatives of students at a secondary school in the Peruvian capital). The measurement was made by applying a test of attitudes towards school participation, administered individually and in two moments. The results show that the attitude towards the participation of the families of the students of the mentioned educational institution increased in a higher percentage in the positive level after the application of the PVTLD, determining a gradual and significant change from pretest to posttest in terms of positive attitude towards participation, corroborated by the Wilcoxon comparison coefficient for related samples, which allowed concluding that the virtual program of dialogic literary gatherings has a great influence on family participation in school, both directly and indirectly. These results provide an initial indicator proposing that the PVTLD is a reliable and valid strategy that can be used to foster family involvement in school actions within educational centers. Implications are discussed and recommendations for further study and practice are provided.
