Black working-class boys are the group with the most significant difficulties in their schooling process. In dialogue with Raewyn Connell, we seek to analyze how the collective conceptions of peer groups have influenced the school engagement of Brazilian boys. We conducted an ethnographic research with students around the age of 14 at an urban state school in the periphery of the city of São Paulo. We analyzed the hierarchization process between two groups of boys, demonstrating the existence of a collective notion of masculinity that works against engagement with the school. Well-known to the Anglophone academic literature, this association is rather uncommon in the Brazilian literature. We have therefore attempted to describe and analyze here the challenges faced by Black working-class Brazilian boys to establish more positive educational trajectories.

Some scholars and researchers have been claiming we are in a New Materialist and Posthumanist era. It means that for the ones who are researching in Social Sciences, the focus is not only the human as the centre and the cause of what happens in the social realm. For human, nonhuman and inhuman are attributed the same importance in research once all of them are components of reality, inserted in nature.Reality is regarded as complex, not simple straightforward isolated cause and effect processes. This is how the classroom is supposed to be observed in educational research: not only teaching and learning, but these two processes and policy making, and identity construction, and emotional flows, and curriculum, and schooling, and…, and…The purpose of this paper is to reflect upon the complexity of the classroom environment regarded as an assemblage. The hypothesis is that all the components of the assemblage are equally vital, although some components are more vibratory than others. The theory of Vitalism from Driesch (1914) and the Vital Materialism from Bennett (2010a, 2010b) are used as the theoretical tools for analysis. Assemblage Ethnography (YOUDELL, 2015; YOUDELL and MCGIMPSEY, 2015) is the methodology of data collection. A multiple case study was developed in three different schools in United Kingdom: one Primary, one Secondary and one Post-secondary. The results suggest that teacher and students are the components who most influence on the classroom assemblage composition, decomposition and recomposition orienting the flows of matter-energy once they are change-creating agents.

Prior to the 1920s, the state of California authorized local school districts to educate Native American children in ““separate but equal”” facilities where there was no federal Indian school in the vicinity. In 1923 seven Indian children in Inyo County attempted to enroll in a public school instead of attending the poorer quality local Indian day school. The state Supreme Court, in Piper v. Big Pine School District (1924), ruled in their favor. The case was central to ending segregation in California’’s public schools.

Atualmente, temos um grande contingente de crianças frequentando a escola, porém muitos alunos não têm se apropriado dos conhecimentos curriculares, fato que é objeto de estudos no âmbito da Educação e da Psicologia Escolar e Educacional. Nesse contexto, nosso objetivo é apresentar a compreensão de professores sobre as dificuldades encontradas no processo de escolarização e o relato que fazem sobre o enfrentamento dessas dificuldades em uma cidade do Norte do Paraná. Para tanto, inicialmente, faremos uma discussão sobre o fracasso escolar; na sequência, apresentaremos alguns pressupostos do processo ensino-aprendizagem com fundamentos na Psicologia Histórico-Cultural e, finalmente, apresentaremos dados de uma pesquisa sobre as queixas escolares realizada com trinta professores das séries iniciais do Ensino Fundamental de cinco escolas. Nossa conclusão foi que uma visão culpabilizante e individualizadora continua explicando as dificuldades no processo de escolarização e que os alunos vivem em uma sociedade excludente, a qual não socializa os bens materiais e culturais de forma igualitária. Também, concluímos ser necessário propor mediações diferenciadas, para que todos os estudantes tenham acesso ao conhecimento.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Queixas escolares. Educação.

This fact has actually been focused in studies by Education and by School and Educational Psychology. This paper focus on teachers’ understanding about difficulties involved in the schooling process and the reporting made about facing them in a town in the northern region of the state of Paraná, Brazil. A discussion of school failure will be held, followed by some presuppositions of the teaching-learning process foregrounded on Historical and Cultural Psychology. Data from a research on school complaints with thirty teachers of the first forms of the Primary School from five schools will be given. A guilt-ridden and individualized point of view is still rife to explain the difficulties in the schooling process. Further, data reveal that students live in an excluding societywhich does not socialize equally material and cultural goods. Differentiated mediations are required so that knowledge may be accessible to all students.KEYWORDS: School complaints. Education. School and educational psycology.
