Özet
Homeschooling can be defined as the practice of conducting partly or entirely the education of children at the age of compulsory formal education by their parents or the tutors assigned by these parents. Homeschooling is a common practice as an alternative to formal education in many countries including especially USA, Canada and several European countries. In these countries, parents usually prefer homeschool for their siblings because of such reasons as their concerns with the school environment and quality of instruction at school; a desire to educate the child on some religious, philosophical or moral basis; special needs of the child; financial reasons; and advancement of distance education technologies. It is reported that homeschooled children are academically more successful than their peers at school. However, there are opposing views about the socialization of the homeschooled children. Most important drawback of this practice is the difficulty of developing and applying the necessary curricula. In our country, current legislation does not include any regulations regarding homeschooling. Given the conditions in our country, homeschooling practice cannot be said to accord with the principle of unity of education. However, with the proper regulations, it can be considered as an alternative and complementary practice which can reduce the burden of open/distance education practices in Turkey.
