La classe à plusieurs cours à l’épreuve du modèle de la classe homogène. Une organisation pédagogique subversive de la forme scolaire ? by Sylvie Jouan

“…After a presentation of the state of the art on the performance of French multigrade classes, an analysis of several institutional writings since the end of the 19th century allows us to corroborate the hypothesis that the reticence towards these classes can be explained by the attachment to a pedagogical model incompatible with the reality of a multigrade class: a model of simultaneous teaching, consubstantial with the school form, prescribing the constitution of homogeneous classes. The multigrade class, in particular the one that brings together more than two grades, thus appears as potentially subversive of this school form.…”

In the studied period, Spanish cinema encounters an ever-flowing social, approaching it from different perspectives, turning into a representational mechanism that codifies the practices of the everyday –that is, the recurrent forms of interaction through which individuals function with a given social structure.…”
