Debates y prácticas en materia de elección de centros escolares en los países europeos y los Estados Unidos.
2004
Currently one of the topics present on the political agenda in nearly every country --except France, where it is still a taboo-- is the option for families to be able to choose the school where their children will study. French politicians are reluctant to enter the discussion of this topic, for fear that opening up possibilities might increase school segregation and jeopardise the unity of an educational system that must offer equal opportunities to all. To clarify this matter, it suffices to have a look at research evaluating foreign experiences in the field of the choice of schools by parents. In this respect there is a large variety and, both in France and abroad, (international) compar…
Desigualdades de género y formación profesional : elecciones, abandono y expectativas.

Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar las desigualdades de género con relación a las motivaciones escolares a la hora de escoger un ciclo formativo de grado medio, las motivaciones del abandono femenino y las expectativas para después de la formación profesional.

A través del análisis del discurso de 12 jóvenes entrevistadas, se ha podido comprobar la persistencia de las desigualdades de género en la formación profesional, en las elecciones y las motivaciones y también se han encont…
Problems and challenges for the Politics of Education before the change of prominence experienced by educational actors
2013
This paper deals with some of the problems that the Politics of Education has to face both as a subject and as a government action. Based above all on the literature appeared in specialized journals during the last five years, our attention is firstly focused on the concern for using an active methodology in the teaching of this subject which places students at the center of the teaching-learning process with the aim of encouraging their interest in its contents and inducing them to acquire civic competences. Secondly, the new but already deeply-rooted neoliberal conception of education is used to describe some of its policies, such as accountability, assessment and free choice of school. O…
Gouverner l'école : Une comparaison France / Etats-Unis
2007
07080; Dans la plupart des pays, ont lieu des réformes assez radicales du gouvernement de l'éducation. Ce qui caractérise la France n'est pas - loin de là - l'incapacité d'imaginer ou d'engager des réformes, mais le fait qu'elles sont justifiées par des valeurs secondaires (l'adaptation à la compétition économique, aux nouvelles populations...), et qu'elles prennent des formes technocratiques, facultatives ou incantatoires, parfois silencieuses (l'assouplissement de la carte scolaire depuis 1984), d'autres fois encore contradictoires.De ce fait, elles laissent aux traditionalistes le monopole des références à la citoyenneté et aux valeurs ultimes de l'éducation. L'éducation française est do…
Lo que hacen las mejores escuelas integradoras de alumnado inmigrante: un modelo para su análisis y prospectiva.
2016
Immigration is a phenomenon which has changed the social scene of all over the countries and has increased alongside a world becoming even more global. These social changes have generated new challenges in educational sphere focused on the integration of immigrant students and the intercultural education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the elements of educational attention to immigrant students defined in hosting policies for this group pertaining to educational institutions and national/international reference authors. To do this and based on a theoretical framework, the following phases in the development of research are addressed in the research: pre-analysis of documents, c…
Schooling Effects and Earnings of French UniversityGraduates : School Quality Matters, but Choice ofDisciplines Matters More
2009
09022 - Actes sur CD-ROM; Our aim in this article is to study the relation between earnings of French universities graduates and some characteristics of their universities. We exploit data from the Céreq's "Génération 98" survey, enriched with information on university characteristics primarily from the ANETES (yearbook of French institutions of higher education). We employ multilevel modeling, enabling us to take advantage of the natural hierarchy in our separate datasets, and thus to identify, and even to measure potential effcts of institutional quality. Since we take into account many individual students characteristics, we are able to obtain an income hierarchy among the diffrent disci…
De l'école unifiée aux écoles plurielles. Évaluation internationale des politiques de différenciation et de diversification de l'offre éducative
2004
The last two decades have been marked in many developed and emerging countries by major educational reforms, around special themes: decentralization, the differentiation of courses and school content and the free choice of school. These three education policies, which aim to differentiate and diversify the educational offer, call into question the traditional organization of modern educational systems. This study seeks to evaluate the effects of these reforms on the performance of education systems, thanks to an econometric analysis based, on the one hand, on the results of the PISA 2000 international evaluation and, on the other, on a a fine description of the institutional characteristics…
Koulutuksen tasa-arvon muuttuvat merkitykset: Kasvatussosiologian vuosikirja 1
2016
Koulutuskysymysten ymmärtäminen edellyttää yhteiskuntatieteellistä ymmärrystä, kun koulutus kytkeytyy yhä tiiviimmin talouteen, elinkeino- ja työvoimapolitiikkaan sekä väestöjen ja osaamisen hallintaan. Kasvatus- ja koulutussosiologinen tutkimus on Suomessa vahvistunut 1980-luvulta lähtien merkittävästi. Kasvatussosiologiselle ymmärrykselle on tilausta, joskin koulutuspolitiikkaa tehdään paljolti tutkimustuloksista piittaamatta, mikä sekin on sosiologisesti kiinnostava ja yhteiskuntatieteellistä analyysia kaipaava asia! Sosiologisen koulutustutkimuksen vahvistuminen näkyy hyvin kotimaisten tieteellisten konferenssien esitelmätarjonnassa. Suomessa järjestetään vuosittain useita tieteellisiä …
Les effets du choix de l'école selon la nature du dispositif mis en œuvre : une approche comparative en terme d'équité
2007
This doctoral thesis analyses the implications derived from the regulations and the implementation of school choice programs at the level of the redistribution of the social good education – freedom for parents to choose the schools of their children, increasing the control of citizens on the way schools educate, maximisation of educational options for children, equalisation of educational opportunities, satisfaction of preferences, education to democracy, tolerance and autonomy. To this aim, we do a systematic empirical assessment of four school choice programs (London, Amsterdam, Paris and Buenos Aires) with the help of several methodological tools. On the one hand, a theoretical model of…
Schooling effects and earnings of French University graduates: school quality matters, but choice of discipline matters more
2010
Our aim in this article is to study the relation between earnings of French universities graduates and some characteristics of their universities. We exploit data from the Céreq's "Génération 98" survey, enriched with information on university characteristics primarily from the ANETES (yearbook of French institutions of higher education). We employ multilevel modeling, enabling us to take advantage of the natural hierarchy in our separate datasets, and thus to identify, and even to measure potential effects of institutional quality. Since we take into account many individual students characteristics, we are able to obtain an income hierarchy among the different disciplines : students who gr…
