MELO, Benedita Portugal e; DIOGO, Ana Matias y FERREIRA, Manuela. The return of year-4 exams: school, children and family dynamics in the blogosphere. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2016, n.81, pp.141-161. ISSN 0873-6529. https://doi.org/10.7458/SPP2016817617.
This text looks at the discourses on year-4 school exams that circulated in the blogosphere in 2012-2015. Its goal is to understand the concepts of school and child within those discourses and to uncover the family dynamics that are tending to occur in the wake of the political decision to bring back those exams. The presented data are derived from an analysis of 159 posts published in 50 blogs. The authors' conclusions point to the emergence of a “parentocracy” that is led by mothers, is exercised in schooling / school attendance processes that are taking place ever earlier in children's lives, is subject to tensions and is underpinned by composite concepts of the child as an educational actor.
Palabras clave : national year-4 exams; children; family dynamics.
