This paper presents part of the findings of a research that analyzes the local implementation of the socio-educational program Red Comunitaria de Apoyo Escolar (Ministry of Education, CABA), which operates under the model of associated management with civil society organizations. We will analyze the articulations generated within the framework of this program between mothers of primary school students who attend the school support program of the Madre del Pueblo Club, the coordinators and educators who work in these spaces and the directors of two schools in the Ricciardelli neighborhood. The transversal axis of the analysis are the perceptions of the family referents on school support, showing how the meanings they construct around informal schooling differ from those constructed by the directors of schools and territorial teams. It will be shown how school support centers constitutes a support (Martucelli, 2007) that allows families to replenish a cultural-scholastic capital (Bourdieu, 2000) to accompany their children in schooling. The research assumed a qualitative approach, using the case study methodological strategy. Ten indepth interviews were conducted with the aforementioned actors during 2021. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This text presents some of the results of the PhD research in Educational Sciences (Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities, UNC) developed between 2018 and 2022, which sought to study school discontinuity through student absenteeism in two secondary schools in the city of Cordoba. The thesis is entitled "Discontinuities in school time in secondary education. An investigation on the presences and absences in the schooling of the new generations". In this paper I will focus on the normative regulations about absenteeism and non-attendance through the redefinition of the academic regime. I will focus on the two regulations that continue to intervene on absenteeism in the province of Cordoba, in order to problematise the typology of justified and unjustified absences. I then analyse the ways in which absences are regulated in the two schools investigated through reinstatements and justifications. Finally, this development allows us to reflect on the relationships between attendance, inequality and normative and pedagogical interventions on absenteeism in secondary education, recognising the achievements and pending challenges in the process of institutionalisation of compulsory schooling and democratisation of secondary education.

This paper presents the progress of an ongoing investigation on the institutionalization process of the Extended Day (JE) in a primary school in the city of Córdoba. The study aims to reconstruct and characterize the implementation of the school time extension policy, paying special attention to the pedagogical task and formative experiences that are deployed within the framework of this modality. Our main interest was focused on exploring alternatives to the more traditional production of knowledge in qualitative research and we set out to develop a work in which to generate reflective instances with the participating subjects, putting relevant aspects of the field material to discussion-reflection. This text is intended to communicate one of these instances of exchange where three significant aspects of the pedagogical task in JE were addressed: the place that boys and girls occupy in pedagogical relationships, work in pedagogical pairs and classroom-workshop instances. It will focus on how pedagogical relationships are built, paying special attention to the senses that listening acquires: as a way of getting to know children and their problems, as a space for dialogue and subjective construction, and as an instance of recognition of knowledge to elaborate pedagogical proposals.

This paper analyzes the formative experiences that take place in the school lunchroom. For this purpose, it is situated in shelter school located in the southern region of Mendoza. The process of children's involvement in school culinary practice is analyzed, paying attention to the ways in which peer relationships develop and describing the process by which students participate in increasingly complex ways. It is identified that in the participation process students go through three moments; in each one of them students are referred to as small, medium and large in the school context. These classifications are linked to belonging to certain grades, but they also imply the recognition of knowledge about the practices that take place in the school lunchroom. On the other hand, in these different phases, boys and girls are linked in different ways with their peers, assuming different forms of participation in the development of the task.

This paper is part of the research “Work of teaching, material culture and transmission of contents. Case study in Secondary Schools of the Province of Córdoba” (FFyH, UNC). It presents initial advances in the study of the relationship between the New Academic Regime of Secondary Education of the Province of Córdoba (NRA), the teaching and teaching work of teachers of technical and oriented secondary schools. From an exploratory approach, on the one hand, try to describe what the NRA regulations consist of, as a device, and the characteristics of its implementation; and the other hand, to recognize the senses and knowledge built by teachers in the encounter between the definitions and demands of the regulations with the conditions of teaching work, significantly deteriorated. The expressions of professors interviewed show not only the doubts and expectations generated by the proposal of change that implies the NRA but also the modes of institutional resolution and the pedagogical-didactic strategies built in schools. This is experienced by teachers as opportunities and possibilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we share reflections produced in the framework of the research project “The right to secondary schooling. Contributions to the (de)construction of schooling conditions and the school format.” We are interested in how schooling processes unfold in secondary schools, particularly in the movements, resistance and changes in the spatial (and temporal) dimensions of school organization, within the framework of inclusion policies to guarantee compulsory secondary schooling and the right to education. Here we present some analyses of these processes in two public secondary schools in the city of Córdoba. The study perspective is socio-anthropological, and from an interdisciplinary perspective, we seek to recover/raise awareness on senses and meanings constructed by school actors in the production of these schooling processes. Likewise, we advance in the theoretical and analytical construction of school spatiality, enhancing pedagogical debates with contributions from other social sciences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The work is framed within the Project Reinventions of schooling in public schools. Institutions, subjects and experiences in times of demands for equality and aims at the institutionalization of obligatory secondary school in socially complex contexts. The time that has elapsed, the complex sequence of programs and projects and the daily work of teachers, allow for a broad panorama of questions to be reviewed. Among these issues, in this paper we address the ways in which adults position themselves vis-à-vis young people in a school located in a neighborhood crossed by strong tensions and growing inequalities. We recovered the categories elaborated in the framework of the research to focus on views and practices in which young people are considered in their context and inscribed in the terrain of a possible inclusion. The aim is to problematize the way in which adults deal with different situations and link them to the recognition of adolescent otherness within the framework of the processes of institutionalization of extended compulsory education. In this sense, and from the analyzed accounts, we propose - from the institutional perspective - to think of the democratization of the school as a work of pluralization of symbolic places and subjective anchors, facing the obstacles arising from the erasure of the subject in the neoliberal public and educational policies since 2015 and the social conflict unleashed as a result of them.

This article is the result of a concluded research focused on the experiences of participation and subjectification of young people in popular areas in the context of a socio-educational program known as Center of Juvenile Activities, CAJ, in Spanish, in Córdoba City. In this paper, we reconstruct the senses attributed to CAJ by the group of young participants, understanding these meanings are woven into the research team’s own approach and conception of this program. This case study was done in the framework of the qualitative interpretative paradigm. The empirical corpus, analyzed from the Grounded Theory, was composed of semi-structured interviews, records of participants being observed and analysis of documents. On the basis of the juveniles narratives we were able to reconstruct four main senses in relation to CAJ: I) learning space intertwined with pleasure that enabled the acquisition of tools for development in today’s and tomorrow’s everyday life; II) horizontal space of juvenile participation that enabled inner organization and participation in scenarios of ordinary revindications; III) space for extended social juvenile interaction based on reciprocity and respect; IV) space for a created and yearned for family with the possibility of experimenting with various inter and intragenerational bonds and even with bonds different from habitual ones. These senses were intertwined with the educator team’s own ideas, proyections and dispositions of CAJ. The educators believed in the forging of intragenerational bonds based on mutual respect and fostering an active, critical and committed citizenship, that in a dialectical manner, would produce subjective modifications and transformation in the educational institution and in the most general social conditions of the most impoverished sectors.

For more than twenty years, Latin American countries have faced the challenge of generating policies that support the universalization and democratization objectives of the secondary school level, guaranteeing the access, permanence and graduation of young people. Within this context, in Argentina, several regulations and actions focused on secondary school and young people of school age have been developed in recent years, including some aimed at revising the curriculum mesh. This paper presents some advances in two research projects in development. One of them analyses the construction process of the Curriculum Design for Secondary Education in the Province of Buenos Aires (2005-2010), and the other studies the creation of secondary education offers in disadvantaged areas within the framework of a project promoted by the Ministry of National Education between 2014 and 2015. The paper aims to provide a theoretical framework for the understanding of the decisionmaking processes in curriculum policy and to present some key questions about the way in which the characteristics of these processes could put a strain on the meaning of the curriculum changes that are intended to be implemented, at the level of educational systems and at the level of institutions.

This paper presents an analytical aspect of the results of the research project Formative experiences: transmission between generations and educational spaces, referred to the ways of naming what occurred in Argentina during the last civicmilitary dictatorship, the different journeys, trajectories and approaches to the subject. In this paper we introduce the first approach to the analysis of information produced from the implementation of the educational project. We attempt, on a broader sense, to present some provisional insight following questions that guide our research project: What appropriation processes on the memory of the dictatorship are produced in new generations? How do professorship students make sense of the last Argentine civic-military dictatorship? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper addresses the state presences and the place they give to university careers in the future projects of young people in rurban contexts. It is based on an ethnographic research carried out in Cañuelas in two stages: the first one between 2008 and 2010, accompanying young people who were finishing their secondary schooling; and the second one, between 2018-2019, revisiting with them their projects of a decade ago, taking into account their new projects and the transformations of the rurban context. We argue that the presence of the university in their projects is the product of the articulation of individual projects and desires with local political projects. The latter make visible and shape options to be included in the young people's projects, legitimising certain projects for the future over others. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Educational inclusion involves not leaving anyone out of the educational spaces, in this case, out of the university; it implies the challenge of building a university for everyone. The first point we would like to analyse here is the following: if the university is public and it has open and free access, why, however, is it not for everyone? In recent years, 'inclusion' is both the distinctive sign of a series of state policies that promote higher education as a right, as well as the focus of an ongoing academic debate. This debate about inclusion has been the topic that brought us together and made us come up with the recent investigation project on which we are currently working on1. In this paper, we will share how we are exploring the inclusion circumstances -how they occur, how they work, their effects, their difficulties-in their daily dimension and from the experiences of students and teachers of National University of Córdoba, focusing on the latter. We will recover some educators' voices that put into evidence that inclusion has become an everyday problem within the classroom, where they practice different (and sometimes contradictory) strategies.

The purpose of this paper is to articulate the reflection arising from the context of the research work, around a series of questions about the meanings of teacher training in the University setting. We are in the process of conducting a CIUNSA project linked to the specialization in the University Teaching program at the National University of Salta. We believe that this degree course reflects a trend in postgraduate training that has been gaining strength in recent years in most universities in the country. The training of professionals from different areas who choose teaching as a complementary an develop it in the University environment, presents the complexity of establishing an articulation between two different logics: that of the disciplinary fields of each profession with that of the teaching field. We will analyze aspects of the specialization in teaching delivered at our university, which aims to recover teaching practices as the axis of reflection and production of knowledge, and attempts to express that reflection through the Final Projects of the degree career.

This paper aims at reconstructing the pedagogical and disciplinary praxis in each territory for disciplinary research, according to the conditions offered by the training in Education Sciences. To do this, we use a qualitative methodology, specifically case studies. In this sense, the cases selected for this study were two Education Science teaching teams: General Didactics and History of Argentine Education. On the basis of the analyses performed, three formative contexts were identified: the field, the desk and the extra institutional territories. These territories shape a form of methodological and epistemological approach of the disciplinary object, which in turn enables modes and devices of research training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The government of poverty becomes educational policy and pedagogical approach in schools that develop proposals of education differentiated according to "sex", aimed at children and adolescents from popular sectors. Teachers' conceptions about their work with these sectors are based on a naturalistic and "social" reading of gender, which justifies the physical separation of boys and girls, and the supposed greater effectiveness of the work of educating if the "sex" of the teacher is homologated with that of the students. A pedagogical work is deployed with families in which they are placed as a threat or as possible allies, in terms of social work on gender violence in the family space. Gender policies are thus re-appropriated locally, justifying an organizational and pedagogical model based on physical separation and segregation according to criteria of inequality and differences, which reinforces the fragmentation of the system and segregation processes. The paper is based on a qualitative research developed in a private Catholic school that separates boys and girls in the city of Buenos Aires, and sought to understand the articulation of class and gender in the production of educational inequalities and their approach from the teachers' point of view.

This paper is part of the study on the transformations in the organization of the teaching school work that gives continuity to the analysis of the relations between pedagogical field and teachers' union field in Córdoba province. The aim of this paper is to describe, from a sociohistorical perspective, some principles that structured the model of organization of the teaching school work arisen with the teachers' statutes in the late 50's; its legitimacy conditions and working and pedagogical implications; as well as its limits as part of the processes of educational massification, new state demands towards teaching work and the progressive recognition of education as a right. From there, the emergence of new principles that begin to regulate the organization of teaching work is presented as a hypothesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The research project PICT 2014-0898: Primary/secondary and secondary/higher educational transitions: students' trajectories and learning assessment (directed by Flavia Terigi at the National University of General Sarmiento) aims to analyze variations in criteria and practices of assessment, marking and grading, and promotion to the next academic year across the different educational levels. One of the principal objectives of the research project is to hypothesize about how these aspects can affect students' trajectories in transitions between educational levels. This paper focuses on part of the field work carried out in the first year of secondary school with regards to the subject Language Practice. It addresses professors' views about assessment, certification, scoring and grading through the analysis of the pedagogical and evaluation proposal of each professor, their scoring strategies and correction criteria, and the way in which they build the quarterly grade of each student.

The absences of the students to the secondary school constitute a school problem when their excessive accumulation becomes discontinuous and interrupts the learning time of the adolescents in the school. That is why I was interested in inquiring about them and their relationship with school time, as well as the different forms of attendance that can be distinguished behind their different types. In this paper I intend to tell the story of this curiosity linked to the socio-historical educational processes that were configured since the enactment of the National Education Law; Communicate the findings so far produced on this subject, present the current research and develop some questions that guide the continuity of this inquiry. How does the school, as an expression of a certain social and cultural form, makes sense or not in subjectivities whose experience with monochronically organized school time repeatedly collides? What other ways of institutionalism of the school could accommodate students subjects and guarantee their learning? That is to say, how institutions are playing themselves as such, in the absence of students in their classrooms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper reviews our qualitative analysis of the classes given by three teachers at the basic cycle in secondary school. The contents of the taught curricular units are prescribed by the jurisdictional curricular designs of Cordoba and organized around relational axes. The investigation inquiries into how in their methodological constructs the teachers relate educational paths and approaches to content with the use of various technologies available in the school environment, and how the uses and ways of managing the materiality of didactic artifacts and tools, and even their implied meanings, tend to condition and/or enable certain forms of transmission of knowledge. Through this first exploration, we have recognized some recurrences and discrepancies in the classes observed, which are linked to the fact that the way of presenting and treating the contents in these subjects would assume evaluative and pragmatic senses, with an informative imprint, while at the same time would guide the selection of certain devices and tools for use in the classroom. In turn, the available artifacts and tools contribute to consolidating this type of work with knowledge. The interweaving of these elements/features makes up a didactic-pedagogical devices or mechanisms (dispositifs) within the framework of traditions, organizations and dynamics of school work at the secondary education level.

This paper gives continuity to our studies on conditions of schooling and transmission of knowledge; learning evaluation devices and those that regulate school discipline between the primary and secondary levels in public schools in Córdoba city and their forms of articulation, overlaps and discontinuities between the three levels of the system. The research presented in this opportunity is aimed at reconstructing the network between teaching invention processes, the immaterialities at stake, and interactive processes in classrooms and in expanded school spaces. It is interesting to analyze the distinctive marks of experience in a teaching case, which consists of a didactic itinerary shared between two secondary schools in Córdoba. We pay attention to the particular ways in which teachers recreate in their classes the official curriculum and cultural knowledge through their own inventions. These inventions also imply links with the knowledge of teaching, and with the knowledge of otherness in interactive processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the results of an investigation carried out at a middle school in Buenos Aires suburbs, in which the processes of cultural appropriation carried out by the school on educational policies for middle and high school education in recent years are explored. We will analyze the process of construction and transformation of a middle school in the Province of Buenos Aires, based on the policies promoted with the enactment of the National Education Law (2006) and the Provincial Education Law (2007), which sanction the obligatory nature and change the structure of high school. Starting from the assumption that the norms are central instruments to give directionality to the educational system but that take shape in the modes of appropriation at local and institutional level, in this work we will analyze the senses that assume, in the daily life of the school, educational policies, particularly regarding participation, considering the ways in which the organizational structure and school culture are present in the conditions of appropriation. It is an exploratory and descriptive case study based on qualitative ethnographic research. Observations and interviews with different institutional actors over two years were made accompanying the process of conformation as a complete high school. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Who starts the university runs into a first section -introductory course and first subjectscharacterized, by the majority of them, as unkonwn, disconcerting, uncertainly. But, each student deploys strategies to sustain themselves there. In the interviews made to 6 students form National University of Córdoba, that we analized, we realized that they mention the “support” and “accompaniment” from people who belong to university’s own spaces (teachers, classmates, political groupings, secretaries, others) and outside: family and religious groups. In this paper, we will try to reconstruct and characterize how students give an account of, discursively, of those ‘others’ that influence their admission and stay proceedings. Here, our focus is on recovering records where appear this “others” who make possible to sustain themselves at the university, and not those that impede or are negative influence for them.

In this work we present the findings obtained at one stage of a research study carried out as a postdoctoral scholarship granted by CONICET. The main objective of our work is to assess the potentiality of institutional projects designed to promote student permanence in the first years of engineering careers at Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto. This paper is about the study of one institutional project, which is a tutorship project. Favorable institutional contexts as well as features and conditions of these projects are identified. These projects, from the perspective of the people involved in the initiatives of changes, contribute to the permanence of students in engineering careers. The units of observation are the participants of the team coordinating the above-mentioned institutional project. As strategies for data collection, we conducted semi-structured interviews and we analyzed documents. We therefore present findings related to the following points: strengths, achievements and constructed learning, difficulties, institutional conditions that allow the project to achieve its aims, adjustments or changes made, features or conditions of the project that lead to students’ permanence at university.

In this paper, we are interested in presenting our ongoing research and findings on the practice of Extended Learning Time (ELT) in a primary school in Cordoba City, Argentina. First, our object of study, the construct of ELT settings, shaped in place and time by the impact of the present Extended Day Policy and Procedures, the appropriation, and the forms acquired by the institutional task. Second, the methology and strategies employed in our field work will be developed in detail. Third, our first findings will be addressed, taking into account the following relevant aspects of the institutionalization process of ELT: the origin of the School Extended Day Program, the framework of time and use of classroom space, the approach and assessment of performed pedagogical tasks (the elaboration of integrated projects, pedagogical pairs classroom tasks and a workshop classroom model). Finally, our analysis and some of the questions that emerged during the process of our investigation will be shared, focusing specifically on the cultural characteristics of our institution that have made possible the realization of this program as well as the effects of the above mentioned policy on the subjects.

The paper focuses on the place of education for youth and adults and education in contexts of deprivation of liberty in the National Educational Law, in the orientation that this conception gave to the National Ministry of Education policies and in that what enabled for jurisdictions, especially in Córdoba. It results of the doctoral thesis “Adult secondary education in the present. A comparative study between Córdoba (Argentina) and Catalonia (Spain)”and the research Production of meaning and subjectivity in the prison space: access to rights and justice”. Based on the analysis of the regulations and the national and provincial policies that it inspired, it is argued that education as a public good and social right represented a substantial turn in the policies for permanent youth and adult education and in confinement contexts modalities, notwithstanding the insufficient aspects of some actions and the various obstacles to access to education that still persist. It ends with questions about the course of this law within the framework of a socio-political, economic and cultural context very different from the one that favored its emergence and the clues that the current educational policy offers.

This paper presents the advances in a research that expands and deepens previous results about the impacts of tutoring policies in universities, with the purpose of analyzing university tutoring in relation to educational inclusion policies, identifying trends at the institutional, national and Latin American levels. The purpose is to investigate the configurations of these policies in their mutual relations, modalities of concretion in practice and the effects generated in subjects and institutions in the period 2000-2017. The complexity and multidimensionality of the issue being addressed includes contributions from different disciplinary fields: policies in education, sociocultural approaches, pedagogy and comparative education. The advances that are being presented include an analysis of theoretical approaches about the relationships between tutoring and inclusion policies, and the discussions about their meanings and effects from critical perspectives. Furthermore, this work develops the methodological approach and the categories of analysis constructed for research. The research is qualitative and also based on compared approaches. This study seeks to contribute to the development of knowledge about tutoring as part of inclusive policies in Higher Education, within the framework of interactions amongst regional, national and local contexts.

Compulsory secondary school was settled by law 26206 breaking the foundational mandate linked to selection and giving at the same time legal statement to another social commitment: the inclusion of young people belonging to popular sectors into the secondary school. The next decade following the sanction of the compulsion of the level was characterized by a series of questions around the effective inclusion in the school and the changes and transformations required by that inclusion. In this paper we center our attention on a strategy of implementation of educational politics, the Plans of Institutional Improvement and its institutional concretion in four secondary schools under state management in a district of the western conurbation of the province of Buenos Aires. We shall analyze here the strategies of institutional intervention and the accompanying on school courses which different institutions bring into play for young people belonging to popular sectors. We analyze in what way these strategies stand upon diverse social representations about young people and their possibilities to remain in secondary school nowadays. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents some analysis derived from an ongoing doctoral research project aimed at studying the characteristics that formative experiences in primary schools in Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires adopt, in the context of which are considered as recent schooling conditions. The contribution of this paper lies in offering an analytical reading of one of the classes that took part in one of the schools considered for the study. It is shown how theoretical categories arising from Basil Bernstein’s Theory of Pedagogic Discourse are used to reconstruct the rules on which the referred class is built, as well as the way in which those rules are delineated through class interactions. Simultaneously, some hypotheses and questions are presented, setting relations between the analyzed rules orienting the construction of the pedagogical practice and the distribution of pedagogic democratic rights.

The present paper examines the construction of the role of researcher among academics who work as teacher-researchers at Faculties of Psychology in national universities of Argentina. From the analysis of the interviews made to academics that conduct or have conducted, in the latest years, some research on educational themes in these faculties, four differential modes of building the role and the identity of academics as researchers can be identified: "specialist", "artisan", "philo-theory" and "generalist professional". This paper takes advantage of the conceptualizations found in the theory of codes by Basil Bernstein and of post Berstenian developments within the framework of the views of the school of "social realism", in order to analyze the relationships which are set between the different professional roles that the interviewed researchers fulfill and the different strategies of legitimation of knowledge to which they resort.

This paper deals with the question of the place reserved to the link between sexual practices and sexual pleasure in the comprehensive sexual education proposal through the current implementation of Law No. 26,150 in Argentina. To this end, the tradition of sex education in this country during the twentieth century is reviewed, paying attention to the rise of an enhanced awareness of the crucial function of sexual pleasure in its different modulations. Finally, it refers to the legislative framework that links the so-called "rights approach., which allows for the recognition of "sexual rights", with education in the sanction of this law. Recovering this discursive memory of the integral sexual education, the paper intends to put the focus on the conditions which made it possible the unusual emergence of an approach that considers the connection between sexual practices and sexual pleasure in the discourse of education and to inquire into the operations of exclusion that are set in motion.

In this paper we intend to reflect on school newspapers as cultural productions realized in schools of the Northwest of the Territory of Rio Negro during the decade of the 30' and 40'. Taken in their materiality, these objects of writing allow us to examine not only their contents, but also to understand some practices and discourses activated within the schools in a delimited temporal and spatial context. The school newspapers transcended the limits of the school space, since they were distributed and circulated in different social spheres, so that it is possible to analyze the social repercussions of the discourses produced by the educational institution in the Territory and in its adjacent areas, spaces which were conceived as environments that had to be moralized and "Argentinized". In turn they were used to interact with society and to cement certain identities in the people that inhabited it. In them it is possible to detect the intersection of nationalist practices linked with some ideas of the "active school" and the appeal to the protagonist role of students, thus showing the tensions and pedagogical contradictions existing at the time. In this paper we have examined school newspapers produced in the region and inquired into the regional press and the history books used at local schools. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is to share the progress of a research project in development within the framework of the thesis corresponding to the "Master's Degree in Education Policy and Management" (UNLu), entitled "The teacher evaluation policies in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (Argentina), the Metropolitan Region of Santiago (Chile) and Montevideo (Uruguay) in the period 2003-2014". The research project starts from the need to know and understand the educational political conceptions that underlie the teacher performance evaluation systems contained in the official regulations, reports and recommendations of international organizations, evaluation criteria and instruments and those expressions declared by the actors involved in the three jurisdictions. The collection of empirical evidence, its analysis and the enunciation of conclusions of the study is based on the adoption of a qualitative methodology. The analyzes consider the specificity of the information sources. In the case of information from normative documents (laws, resolutions, communications, evaluation criteria, regulations, statutes) and evaluation instruments, a documentary analysis was carried out. In the case of interviews conducted, non-standardized interviews, their analysis is based on the identification of common theoretical categories, special and theoretical issues in the discourse of key informants, which allows the triangulation of information sources.

In this paper, we provide a summary of the research project called "Ways of Presenting Knowledge from the Field of Psychology: Transmission Processes and their Effects on the Production of Subjectivity". From an epistemological, pluralist, critical and broadened perspective, we conceptualize ways of presenting and transmitting knowledge as specific aesthetic compositions. Thus, epistemological reflection is proposed as a way of inquiring into assemblages -political, ethical, aesthetic and scientific- which modulate psychological knowledge. Our interest revolves around the sensitive forms that are created when discourse is transcended, and other signs, images, sounds and intensities emerge. After a previous exploratory work starting from the word of supervising professors, we include a semistructured interview with teachers of Psychology and Education, Subjects of Education and Comprehensive Sex Education from teaching training institutes in the city of Cordoba. Thinking that classes would be complex aesthetic compositions in which subjectivities are produced, we took the variations found. These range from traditional uses and conventional forms to disruptive ways which cause singular appropriations of knowledge. We are interested in identifying which are the ways of transmission and appropriation that unleash a higher subjectivating power in the development of contemporary psychologies.

During the last decade different organization have promoted Computer Science education in mandatory schooling. In this paper we analyze some teaching experiences in programming in primary and secondary public schools from Córdoba, Argentina. These experiences resulted form short professional development courses. Following an exploratory approach, we relied on teacher's reflections and classroom observation to identify for emerging themes around teaching programming through video games: 1) student enthusiasm, 2) the possibility of integrating different disciplines in programming projects, 3) collaborative work among the students, 4) the inclusion of special education students in programming tasks. We systematized teacher's reflections and classroom observation that allowed to built these emerging themes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper shows the first developments of the research project "Technical knowledge on language for the training of novel interpreters and writers. A study based on the treatment of discursive and grammatical topics in school textbooks", composed of researchers of the School of Letters, FFYH (UNC). This project investigates what types of technical knowledge a novel interpreter / writer requires to develop their task of interpreting and writing texts, and which of those knowledges are offered in the Language and Literature manuals that circulate in the schools. This is a particular line of inquiry that aims to analyze whether the activities that the manuals propose and that combine linguistic knowledge in general (or grammar, in particular) promote 'immanent' activities (recognizing, analyzing, describing, classifying, etc. linguistic - grammatical categories) or if those tasks try to reuse that knowledge to interpret or produce texts. The objective is to understand if the linguistic learnings proposed by the school manuals could be constituted in 'technical' knowledge as they serve 'to do other things' with them: write, give a meaning effect to the texts, define parameters of revision-correction of the own texts or others, define patterns of rewriting, etc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the progress of a research carried out as part of an articulation/extension project started in 2014 between the General Office of Higher Education, the Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities and the Faculty of Mathematics, Astronomy, Physics and Computing of the National University of Córdoba. From our teaching experience and the dialogue with colleagues from various primary and secondary educational institutions, a common dilemma arises when it comes to the resolution of the division in the classroom. Accordingly, the question is how to provide the students with an effective technique for division resolution. This communication intends to show the diversity of division resolution techniques and analyse those applied by students in the transition between primary and secondary school. The experience took place in two schools of San Francisco, in particular at the beginning of the first year of secondary school. By applying a specific methodological design guided by strategies such as diagnostic assessment, interviews and teacher workshops, relevant information was obtained to identify the knowledge involved. his article analyses the instruments and limitations in the federal control of the press between the constitutional reform of 1860 and the end of the 1880s. To that end, we examine legislative debates, presidential addres-ses, Supreme Court rulings, articles of jurists in the specialized press and doctoral theses of the University of Buenos Aires that addressed this issue. Keywords: Argentina; 19th century; Freedom of the press; Political Press; Federalism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Along this paper, the main concepts on which proposals are based are identified and analyzed and also an inquiry is carried out on the prospects that underline them. The dominant debate in the music and visual arts' field and its impact on the practices of initial teacher's training are part of the questions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the initial results of the study on "Pedagogical Authority in Schools: possibilities, weaknesses and challenges," approved and funded by the SECyT (Dept. of Science and Technology) for the 2012-13 period. The study looks at the particular issue of pedagogical authority -part of a broader concern regarding the construction of specificity of pedagogical approach within the field of Education Science. The problem was defined based on the central premise that the current models of authority that have evolved alongside school expansion in the modern world are in crisis mode. The expansion of public schools in Argentina has been accompanied by a breakdown in the legitimacy of the social and institutional vote of confidence borne by teachers. It therefore stands to reason that the act of educating involves new forms of experiencing the transmission of knowledge in the classroom. In the first stage of the study, we interviewed teachers and arrived at the preliminary results are included in this paper from our analysis of those interviews. We refer to three recurring issues in teachers' comments: obedience; control over behaviour and classroom activities; and values and commitment to relationships. In terms of initial categories of analysis, we emphasize considerations regarding pertinence to the research topic and the most relevant content that we are able to present at this stage of the process.

This paper is part of the research project UBACyT2014-2017 "The conformation of the pedagogical field: meanings and debates about inequalities and differences in education" currently underway in the Research Institute of Education Sciences, Philosophy and Letters, Buenos Aires' University. The leading line of inquiry around which this study revolves consists in describing and understanding how the various meanings still under discussion about the right to education and the recent political-educational discourses on the compulsory character of secondary school are being defined and accepted in different institutional and organizational spheres of the pedagogical field. In accordance with the letter of convocation of the Conferences and the selected line of inquiry, it is interesting to point out how Plan Ends 2 (Completion of Secondary Studies) and educational spaces in contexts of punitive confinement contribute to the shaping of educational experiences in young people and adults; which are the meanings that each person attribute to them, and identify and describe those aspects of the way of schooling that turn out to be suitable for the social and educational inclusion of this population, that in each pedagogical territory takes different forms. We will focus on the educational experiences of students in order to understand the ways in which these new configurations of education take place in contexts of inequalities and social, cultural and educational differences. We believe that knowing these worlds will yield clues to rethink education in those spaces. For this we will use criteria, strategies and resources of the qualitative and interpretative approach, particularly that which is based on the theoretical-methodological foundations of the ethnography of education, biographical-narrative research and the narrative documentation of pedagogical experiences.

This paper presents some of the advances in the research "Entering the teaching profession; a historic study on the ways of receiving new professors in secondary schools" developed in the National University of General Sarmiento and the topic of the Doctoral thesis in Education carried out in the National University of Entre Rios. Understanding this process opens up the possibility of knowing more about what happens in this work-related socialization process of the entering the profession in which there is place for the fundamental instance of the teaching training of conversion/transformation of a person to a teacher. The problem in that there are new institutional conditions that cause us to consider that these initial performances can not continue to be thought of in the same way. In that sense, it is probable that, in formative terms, the intensity of the initial performances, are not the same and that this could reverse the initial training; which if that were the case, further questions would have to be taken into account.

This paper aims to communicate advances made in the research project that is currently being carried out; N° 2010/03 "Teacher training and performance contexts; frontiers in initial internship training", of the CIUNSA as part of a research program. It deals with a research team, made up of students that are in the last year of coursework in the Teaching degree in Education and Philosophy Sciences, and by researching teachers forming members of the Center of Social and Educative Research of Northern Argentina [CISEN, for its acronym in Spanish] of study the College of Humanities of the National University of Salta. Our field of study and work, in which we have been working for several years, is based on teacher training. It focuses in the initial internship training of future primary level teachers, understanding internship training as the process by which the student constructs their own ways and knowledge of professional performance; made up not only by the actions but also of the situated and contextualized reflection (Soria, 2008). We present aspects that make up our research project and some of the voices of the educators that perform in the trajectory of the practices in a Teacher Training Institute of the province of Salta.

This paper intends to show progress made in the "Cognitive and Metacognitive Scaffoldings project in the university pedagogical education: The case of students who are studying at the Faculty of Education in the School of Education Sciences FFYH. UNC." The research work continued to deal with the subject of the inquiry conducted by Lic. Cecilia Ziperovich since 1995, with the collaboration of a team of research professors from the UNC. At this new investigative stage the aim of the study was to contribute some reflections intended to help rethink the loans of conscience, and the cognitive and metacognitive scaffoldings that the teaching staff transfers to the students--who are future teachers. We set out to identify which scaffoldings the teachers propose and interpret the meanings that the students seem to assign to them. The methodology of this investigation was qualitative of an exploratory and descriptive type. It encompassed, as its universe, teachers and students of a module of the teaching career in Philosophy, History, Literature, Psychology, Mathematics and Physics taught by the School of Education Sciences of the Faculty of Philosophy and the Humanities of the UNC. We worked with data from different sources to favor the triangulation of them. The following techniques were used: - Questionnaire self-applied by the students: 83 questionnaires were taken and processed - In-depth interviews with teachers - Analysis of the program of a module of the career plan for teachers. - Analysis of exercises of evaluations and practical works.

El presente trabajo se enmarca en el Proyecto de Investigación: "Estudiantes de Educación Superior. Perfil socioeconómico y social. Trayectorias académicas y curriculum vivido". Propone una reflexión sobre el impacto que tiene sobre los estudiantes la experiencia de la práctica docente, considerada como recorrido que actualiza imágenes de la propia trayectoria educativa, pero que al mismo tiempo exige proyectar un nuevo rol social, una trama a partir de las decisiones que la misma práctica va planteando a lo largo del recorrido, en el encuentro con los alumnos, con los propios saberes, en los desafíos que se plantean día a día en el enseñar, en los interrogantes que comienzan a generarse. Las prácticas analizadas se llevan a cabo en el marco de la materia Didáctica Específica y Residencia Docente del Profesorado en Artes Plásticas de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la UNT. Como metodología se propone el análisis de los relatos realizados por los estudiantes en sus Memorias de la Práctica y supone poner en juego categorías que se relacionan con la propia trayectoria formativa en lo relativo al campo disciplinar (formación artística realizada en la Facultad de Artes - UNT) y la perspectiva que esto proyecta sobre la práctica docente.

The paper that we present systemizes some of the findings that have come out of our research project "Technological and pedagogical training of teachers innovating with ITC in the areas of Economic, Information and Technological Sciences" (SECyT 2014-2015). The revision of the preexisting research systemizes diverse analyses that focus on the failure of the use of technologies in the classroom, making references to a multitude of broken promises of technologies (Sancho, 2009). On the contrary, our search focuses on good professors, memorable professors who incorporate technologies in their teaching practices redefining the sense of their profession and assuming great commitment in the daily tasks of teaching. Fullan and Hargraves (2012) say that teachers become who they are, not only because of their habits; teaching is connected to their lives, their biographies, with the type of person that each one has become. Our project refers to this reconstruction of teachers' trajectories, but also to the personal interests and circumstances that define them as teachers. In this presentation, we begin to describe memorable professors who use technologies in their classes: we begin by reflecting on the "activities of initiation in teaching" that show the emergence of a teaching vocation marked by social and individual commitment; later we analyze "staging" as committed practice from the academic, affective and ethical aspects. Both dimensions start to show the singularity of these professors and it allows us to reflect on the impact of technologies in their classes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper the results are shown of a case study on teaching processes and pedagogic practices in a circular pedagogic proposal (SM, for its acronym in Spanish) of the College of Philosophy and Humanities (FFyH, for its acronym in Spanish) of the University of Cordoba (UNC, for its acronym in Spanish), that articulates presence with the utilization of Virtual Classrooms (AV, for its acronym in Spanish). The results are expressed in a qualitative investigation that describes the forms of transmission and communication with the implementation of Virtual Classrooms in university teaching. This initial problem took a theoretical-methodological turn during the field work, implicating the construction and analysis of a multidimensional approach created especially for the university education.

This paper originated in the readings and progress made in interviews and field work carried out in the doctoral research process of the project "Memory sites as educational spaces. Processes of building of memories and significance of the recent past in students of middle level schools in Córdoba ". The present communication poses a series of questions regarding the teaching processes about the recent past, based on an inquiry on the plans, proposals, practices, and tasks performed by the teachers of middle and high schools that conducted educational visits to La Perla Memory Site. At the same time, a series of expectations is shared with respect to the creation of spaces of work and reflection based on the recognition of the impact of memory policies on the educational field.

This paper empirically approaches the phenomenon of cognitive pluralism and its manifestations in a typical formation of a novel system of diagramming arguments: networks. For this case, from a sociocultural perspective, we conducted focused interviews in which we analyzed the interpretations that students of Informal Logic (FFyH, UNC, Argentina) construed on the "bidirectional relations" of the network diagrams. These formations are presented as problematic inferential assumptions in which the students contradict themselves by indicating the direction of the inference between two given propositions. The results obtained show that: 1) the bidirectional relationships are conceptualized as typical formations in the diagrams with reticular structure that manifest the phenomenon known as cognitive pluralism, 2) the argument networks, exhibit and summarize inferential admissions that ascribe to both classic and modern conceptual construction theories, since the bidirectional relations of the network diagram are organized following both the principles of the concept of "class" and those of the concept of "series"; and 3) the modification of reading practices and analysis of diagrams of arguments when using networks gives a predominant place to the new sign system.

This paper belongs in the research project "Teaching, Evaluation and Discipline as formative devices" (SECYT-UNC, 2012-2014) that I conducted with Dr. Adela Coria1, and at the same time, it includes part of my communication at the Symposium " The meaning of school and education " held at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, in October 2014. I intend to develop here a theoretical-conceptual perspective on school coexistence and its relationship with the principles of a democratic school that promotes formative experiences, taking as a case the study of a primary school in Cordoba that sets in motion School Agreements of Coexistence. Particular attention will be given in the analysis of the case to the pedagogical and institutional conditions that are created to help go through alternative forms of schooling.

The paper shares the progress of an ongoing research that addresses the configuration of educational experiences in public primary schools of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires in the Knowledge of the World area. It is focused on the study of classical didactic dimensions in frames of novel policies and conditions of schooling from the reinterpretation made possible by theoreticalmethodological contributions of the sociology of the curriculum and a socioanthropological perspective. Among other objectives, the inquiry raises the analysis of curricular policies for the primary level, noting the specificity with which they are reinterpreted in teaching practices in the schools selected for the study. Here provisional readings of the Curricular Design for the Primary School of CABA are synthesized, reconstructing features of the contents and of the processes propitiated for their transmission in the considered area. Demarcated criteria are thus identified for the formulation of educational experiences in the said curricular space, conceiving design as a politicalpedagogical project of schooling of childhoods. The analysis is elaborated recovering the perspective of Basil Bernstein and his formulation of codes of educational knowledge, considering the curriculum as a message system built on social rules of selection, classification, distribution and selective transmission of forms of knowledge.
