Salir de la sombra

Lecture by Dr. Carla Fardella

When we talk about educational research, we refer to a field of knowledge disputed by multiple disciplines and international organizations, which leave the school actors and educational research in the shade. This reality has tended to prioritize standardized, comparative and measurement studies of the objective conditions presented by the educational system, to the detriment of those who have focused on local and idiosyncratic aspects of educational knowledge. Shadowing is a relatively new ethnographic strategy that allows you to access, reflect and study the local, micro-political, and idiosyncratic aspects of educational communities. In this presentation we will share some central elements of this device such as: (1) Origin, areas of application of the strategy and characterization, (2) Experiences and uses of the strategy and (3) the ethical-pragmatic implications of the strategy. Additionally, there are some final reflections on their usefulness and validity when it comes to generating focused educational knowledge at the site.
