Social hierarchy of objects in the field of education: early childhood education and digital information and communication technologies
Abstract
This investigation is part of a series of works that use a database to measure the distribution of scientific capital in a social hierarchy of objects according to parameters of Pierre Bourdieu's sociology of science. More precisely, this research investigates the scientific capital in a metadata base composed of theses defended in the field of Education in Brazil between 1996 and 2016. The analysis clipping were the themes of Early Childhood Education and Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT). Using the concept of the Social Hierarchy of Objects and scientometric indices of analysis of social networks, it was measured the hierarchical relationship of symbolic capital of the theme chosen within the field of Education and a description of its resulting network was made, as well as an analysis of the found results. The analyzes showed that although Early Childhood Education and DICT are objects with a high level of symbolic capital in the field of Education, the two terms do not connect or exchange symbolic capital with each other. Possible explanations would be the specificity of Early Childhood Education that tends not to use DICT in its pedagogical practice and the training of pedagogues that usually does not contemplate its use. The time frame that goes until 2016 is another important factor, as it corresponds to a period before the COVID-19 pandemic and before the forced use of DTIC in all areas of Education.
