education
theories of education
marxist
althusser- education transmits capitalist values
acts as an ideological state apparatus- controls WC's ideas -> maintains rule
reproduces class inequal- failing generations of WC pupils
justifies inequal- producing ideology- inequal is inevitable
bowles and gintis- reproductive theory
role of edu- reproduce workforce that accepts inequal
^ schools reward pupils w traits of a good worker (quiet, obedient) = correspondence principle
myth of meritocracy- justify MC privileges as "gained through fair competition" = illusion
^ promoted thru the hidden curriculum- unintended outcome of schooling
willis- studied 12 WC boys in an anti school subculture, found they rejected what was asked of them
functionalist
davis and moore- role allocation
edu prepares for work- best jobs given to those with highest ability = meritocracy
^ inequal is necessary to ensure roles are fit by the best people
-
durkheim- transmits norms and values
teaches specialist skills for workplace eg punctuality
punishment should be strictly enforced- leading to self discipline
parsons- meritocracy
pupils judged on universalistic standards- expected of everyone (prep for work)
meritocracy- rewarded based on effort
status is achieved, not ascribed
schools = "society in miniature", prepare to move to wider society
new right
chubb and moe- consumer choice
priv schools deliver better edu as they answer to paying customers
parents should be given a voucher to buy an edu- schools will improve services as this would be their main source of income
interactionism
hargreaves et al- 3 stage process of being labelled
speculation- first impressions
elaboration- look for evidence to prove/disprove
stabilisation- teacher feels they "know" the pupil, not surprised w their actions
gillborn and youdell- edu triage
3 groups of pupils
pass w/o help, pass w help, "hopeless cases"
-
postmoderist
fordism- capitalism requires many low skilled workers accepting of their inequal
now in a "post-fordist" society- now reqs a skilled + adaptable workforce that can used adv tech
due to pm- society fragmented, economy reqs "flexible specialisation"- production customised for small specialist markets
-
correspondence principle no longer exists- edu reproduces diversity, not inequal
