Ce travail de thèse, travail de lectures, de recherches, d’enquêtes sur le terrain social, de réflexion et d’analyse m’a permis de me pencher sur la question, combien complexe, mais vitale, de l’éducation. Ma problématique a été de tenter d’explorer l’éducation donnée aux jeunes en contexte traditionnel du Bénin, et de me demander si cette éducation permet à ces jeunes de se sentir citoyens du monde à part entière, sans être totalement coupés de leurs racines. Puis de voir si par l’éducation scolaire on arrive à ouvrir ces mêmes jeunes aux valeurs universelles et à faire d’eux des citoyens du monde, sans les couper totalement de leurs racines. J’en suis arrivé à me poser la question de l’enracinement culturel et du déracinement en rapport avec la question de l’éducation scolaire. D’où le titre de cette thèse : «Socialisation en milieu traditionnel et éducation scolaire : enracinement et déracinement culturels en éducation ». J’ai analysé, d’une part, la position de mes interlocuteurs sur ce que transmet, selon eux, l’éducation familiale puis les fonctions qu’ils attendent de l’éducation scolaire, et d’autre part, j’ai étudié les véritables fonctions de l’école. J’ai abordé le tout dans une réflexion analytique et critique, avec en lumière ma problématique sur l’éducation comme entre enracinement et déracinement. Comment comprendre le fait de l’éducation comme un enracinement, c’est-à-dire une prise en compte de l’identité du sujet en éducation, de son passé, de ses racines ? Et comment comprendre l’éducation comme un déracinement, une rupture, une coupure avec les racines, une ouverture aux autres ? Au terme de ce travail qui a consisté ainsi à rechercher les représentations et les pratiques éducatives en milieu traditionnel et à l’école au Bénin, j’ai cherché à déterminer, entre tradition et modernité, le rapport entre les représentations et les pratiques éducatives en milieu traditionnel comme à l’école. Il y a parfois un écart entre les représentations et les pratiques des mêmes individus : les gens ne font pas toujours ce qu’ils disent qu’ils font. Aussi, entre éducation traditionnelle et scolarisation, le problème n’est pas tant de la conservation et de la transmission d’une échelle de valeurs mais, je dirais, de la nécessaire composition de valeurs quelquefois contradictoires entre elles / This work of thesis, work of readings, searches, fieldworks social, reflection and analysis allowed me to tilt me on the question, how much complex, but vital, of the education. My problem was to try to investigate the education given to the young people in traditional context of Benin, and to ask me if this education allows these young people to feel public-spirited of the full world, without being totally cut by their roots. Then to see if by the school education we manage to open the same young people to the universal values and to make of them citizens of the world, without cutting them totally of their roots. I managed to ask myself the question of the cultural implanting and the banishment in touch with the question of the school education. Where from the title of this thesis: " socialization in traditional environment and school education: cultural implanting and banishment in education ". I analyzed, on one hand, the position of my interlocutors on what transmits, according to them, the family education then the functions that they expect from the school education, and on the other hand, I studied the real functions of the school. I approached the whole on an analytical and critical reflection, with in light my problem on the education as between implanting and banishment. How to understand the fact of the education as an implanting, that is a consideration of the identity of the subject in education, of his past, of its roots? And how understand the education as the banishment, the break, the cut with roots, the opening in the others? In the term of this work which so consisted in looking for the representations and the educational practices in traditional environment and to the school in Benin, I tried to determine, between tradition and modernity, the report between the representations and the educational practices in environment traditional as to the school. There is sometimes a distance between the representations and the practices of the same individuals: people do not still make that they say that they make. So, between traditional education and schooling, the problem is not so much preservation and the transmission of a valuable scale but, I would say, of the necessary composition of sometimes contradictory values between them

We will use as a reference, studies dealing with schoolfamily relationship; some concepts of Paulo Freire on education and Bordenave with his reflections on what s participation. In this literature, this contribution is in the form of participatory evaluation in the school and of school; in the institutional modes of participation and involvement contributing to student achievement. This is a qualitative case study, which will be used participant observation and reflective interviews for data collection. The results showed that participation is understood as important to improve: school performance as a whole (management); student performance in the classroom (teachers); the child s performance in school (mothers) and to help students meet the school requests (students). One action triggered by the families of students with classroom issues in order to understand the situation experienced by them. This understanding leads to greater humanization between teachers and students. The expected participation by managers and teachers is that parents will be more interested and give more value to the study of children; the families have a way of very close involvement of expectations raised by managers and teachers, and students reported actions of the families to encourage studies. Even so, the school still feel that lack participation. It was observed that school team presents a theory of participation, drawn from the reflection on their practices, characterizing, here, a particular way of thinking and acting towards the much desired participation / A presente pesquisa propõe-se a compreender a participação da família na vida escolar dos filhos, do ponto de vista de gestores, professores, famílias e alunos de uma escola pública da periferia da cidade de São Paulo. Usaremos, como referência, estudos que tratam da relação escola-família; o pensamento de Paulo Freire sobre educação e participação e as reflexões de Bordenave sobre o que é participação. Na literatura pesquisada, esta participação se apresenta na forma de avaliação participativa da e na escola; nos modos institucionais de participação e na participação contribuindo com o desempenho do aluno. Trata-se de um estudo de caso qualitativo, que se utilizará de observação participante e entrevistas reflexivas para a coleta de dados. Os resultados apontaram que a participação é compreendida como importante para melhorar: o desempenho da escola como um todo (gestão); o desempenho do aluno em sala de aula (professores); o desempenho do filho na escola (mães) e para ajudar os alunos a atenderem às solicitações da escola (alunos). Uma ação voltada para a participação desencadeada pela escola são as entrevistas com as famílias dos alunos que apresentam questões em sala de aula, como um recurso capaz de promover uma maior humanização na relação conflituosa entre professores e alunos. A expectativa de participação por parte dos gestores e professores é de que os pais se interessem por e valorizem mais os estudos dos filhos; as ações das famílias apresentam um modo de participação muito próximo das expectativas levantadas pelos gestores e professores; e os alunos relatam ações das famílias incentivando os estudos. Mesmo assim, a escola ainda sente que falta participação. Foi possível perceber que a equipe escolar apresenta uma teoria sobre participação, elaborada a partir da sua própria experiência e da reflexão sobre a sua prática, caracterizando, aqui, um modo particular de pensar e agir da escola na direção da tão almejada participação

Orientador: Maria de Lourdes Morales Horiguela / Resumo: A educação infantil desenvolve-se com três personagens: a criança, a família e professores. As atividades pré-escolares não podem desenvolver-se à margem da família, que por sua vez, está em contextos mais amplos, cujas influências devem ser consideradas (visão ecológica). Com base em um referencial sistêmico derivado das idéias de Bronfenbrenner, elaborou-se uma perspectiva teórico-metodológica para investigar as interações de crianças pré-escolares nos contextos familiar e pré-escolar. Nesta abordagem, a tarefa de fornecer uma rede de apoio para repensar a efetividade do lar como um contexto onde haja a identificação precoce e tratamento de problemas sociais e emocionais de pais e crianças constitui-se em um imperativo da maior importância. O presente relato de pesquisa "Contexto e Comportamento: Definindo as interações na família e na pré-escola" foi desenvolvida num enfoque ecológico-comportamental, utilizando-se da observação, da entrevista e da ficha de avaliação socieconômica das famílias. A análise de dados resultantes desses instrumentos utilizados, com base em uma revisão literária ofereceu pistas para a discussão e conclusões a respeito de propostas educacionais da educação infantil que favoreçam o desenvolvimento da criança nos microssistema familiar e pré-escolar. / Abstract: The infant education develops itself with three characters: the child, the family and the teachers. The pre-school activities cannot develop themselves with the family that is inserted in wider contexts whose influences must be considered (ecological view). With basis on a derived systemic of Branfenbrenner's ideas, a methodological perspective of theory was elaborated to investigate the interactions of pre-school children in the familiar and pre-school contexts. In this research, the task of providing a supporting net to think over the effectiveness of the home as a context where there is the early identification and treatment of social and economic matters of parents and children constitutes in an imperative of a great importance. The present research " Context and Behavior: Defining the Interactions in the Family and Pre-school" was developed in an ecological behavioral focus using the observation, the interview and the social economic evaluation records of the families. This analysis of data, resulting from these used instruments with the basis on a literary review, offered us cues to a discussion and conclusion about the educational proposals of the infant education that has permitted the development of the child in the familiar and pre-school contexts. / Doutor

They argue for opinion, that family don´t have an impact on bullying and they suppose the main reason is the temperament of the child.
