Amplitude and peculiar aspects of social inequalities in the French school
2005
05021http://www.scielo.br/pdf/ep/v31n1/a02v31n1.pdf; International audience; French sociology denounces vehemently since the end of the 1960s the important and standing social inequalities both in the access to the different levels of education and in school success stricto sensu. Such criticism has taken the form of a general theory put forward by Bourdieu and Passeron, in which such social inequalities are shown to be the necessary result of the functioning of the school institution. And this thesis, hugely influential not just among sociologists, but also more widely, has contributed to foster certain fatalism, since it establishes that the very function of school is to reproduce and leg…
L'assistente alla comunicazione nella scuola è solo un mediatore linguistico? Problemi, specificità, formazione di una nuova figura professionale.
2009
In seguito all’applicazione della L.104/92 sull’integrazione dei soggetti in situazione di handicap, sono presenti nelle scuole italiane gli “assistenti alla comunicazione” per gli alunni sordi: si tratta di una nuova figura professionale che, all’interno dei servizi educativi, si propone di far da ponte tra sordi e udenti, in quanto esperto delle principali problematiche degli alunni sordi ed esperto nella LIS (Lingua dei Segni Italiana). Ma di che tipo di mediazione si tratta? Quali problemi solleva e quali riflessioni dal punto di vista pedagogico, sociale, linguistico e antropologico? Questi i principali ambiti di riflessione trattati all’interno dell’articolo, in termini problematici e…
A systematic review to determine reliability and usefulness of the field-based test batteries for the assessment of physical fitness in adolescents -…
2015
The aim of the present review is to investigate the main field-based tests, used alone or included in sport or fitness batteries, for the assessment of health- and skill-related physical fitness components in adolescents. Different scientific databases were searched through using the selected key words related to physical fitness and its components for adolescence. The search focused on original articles and reviews/meta-analyses using valid, reproducible and feasible tests that fit within the school environment. A total of 100 scientific manuscripts were included in the qualitative synthesis. The present systematic review pointed out 5 fitness tests that well adapt to the evaluation of the…
The Training of Physical-Education Teachers in France and China: A Comparative Analysis of Curricula and Attitudes
2005
This study in comparative physical education examines the curricula followed by physical-education teachers in China and France. It explores how theories of physical education and sport in each country have developed out of specific political, cultural and educational contexts, yet resulted in strong similarities in terms of the priority given to training programs. Nonetheless, it can be seen that the two curricula reflect genuinely divergent concepts of physical education influencing both theory and practice. The attitudes of Chinese and French teacher-trainers towards physical education and sport are shown to display significant ideological differences with regard to the meaning and educa…
FEEDBACK AND ASSESSMENT PRACTICE IN SICILIAN SECONDARY SCHOOL
2022
Teachers’ evaluative competence is one of the pivots of the teaching action because it represents a potential spring for the promotion of learning, autonomy, and educational success of each pupil. Feedback offers the opportunity to enhance the singularity of each student's paths by framing communicative interactions which guide teachers’ evaluative choices by diversifying linguistic registers and choices of communication tools functional to educational success. Since its debut, [3]; [4]; [5], formative evaluation has changed the course of the assessment & evaluative practice. There followed the consolidation of learning through the development of self-regulation, autonomy, reflexivity o…
Améliorer l'école
2006
06003; "L'idée que l'école peut s'améliorer n'est pas qu'un acte de foi. Les recherches empiriques en sciences sociales mettent en évidence que l'école agit à partir d'un contexte social qui en détermine fortement les effets mais que, dans un contexte semblable, certaines approches pédagogiques, certains établissements, certains systèmes éducatifs produisent des effets différents : des élèves faibles moins faibles, des inégalités sociales moins élevées. La recherche en sciences sociales peut contribuer à cette amélioration de plusieurs façons, à la condition de se rappeler que la transformation radicale de l'école n'est pas possible, que les obstacles rencontrés par les élèves ne sont pas d…

Aimer ou non l'école. Ce que déclarent les élèves de l'école élémentaire et pourquoi
2004
This article focuses on the relations of primary school pupils with school.This research work based on a 2,500-strong sample of ten-year olds first analyses the content and polarity of the answers they give to justify why they like school or not. Then we tried to find correlations between their statements and their school or socio-demographic background. Finally the influence of school itself is examined : the class (more than the school environment) and the peer group play a more significant role in pupils' relations to school than methodological issues.

On the other hand, it has also produced a co…
Organisation and Context, Efficiency and Equity of Educational Systems: what PISA tells us
2005
05065http://www.wwwords.co.uk/eerj/; International audience; After describing both average scores, dispersion, and social inequalities in achievement in the various countries included in the latest Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) study, this article relates those ‘products' to country economic and cultural characteristics. It then explores relations between student scores and a number of institutional characteristics of countries' educational systems. Results show that relations exist between average scores and certain institutional or pedagogical practices such as grade repeating or tracking. A high degree of social inequality in achievement proves to be associated wi…
