    New and old educational inequalities in socio-cultural minorities: exploring the school choice experiences of families under the new school admission system in Chile
    (2024) de Dios Oyarzun, Juan; Parcerisa, Lluis; Carrasco Rozas, Alejandro
    In 2016, the Chilean Ministry of Education implemented the new School Admission System (SAS) designed with the goal of equalizing access to schools for the most disadvantaged families and reduce educational segregation. Yet it is not clear if the SAS is sensitive to socio-cultural minorities and their particular conditions. Hence, in this article we explore the school choice experiences of parents from three socio-cultural minorities under the new SAS: Mapuche - indigenous families, Latin American migrant parents, and parents with children with disabilities. Using an intersectional theoretical approach and a qualitative research design, we show that while in some cases the implementation of SAS impedes previous discriminatory processes, in others this new system alone has not yet overcome long-established and inherent educational inequalities in Chilean education. Besides, SAS has also resulted in new challenges in the school choice processes of these parents. Their experiences with the SAS express the intersection of different axis of inequality, according to the conditions and historicities of each group of families. Finally, we reflect on the challenges that the policy faces in regard to develop an educational policy that is fairer to all families, in the context of the unequal and marketized Chilean educational system.

    Old and new social movements in the educational field. An analysis of the trajectory of collective action frames in Chile (1990 - 2014)
    (Policy Press, 2023) Villalobos, Cristobal; Parcerisa, Lluis
    As a consequence of the neoliberal reforms initiated in the 1980s by the Pinochet dictatorship, education in Chile has become a highly controversial issue. Despite the extensive literature on social movements and education in Chile, there is still little evidence on the role of classic social movements and new social movements (NMS) in the educational field, and there is even less evidence on the evolution of the collective action frames of these actors over time. To contribute to this discussion, this article seeks to examine the trajectory of the discursive frameworks of collective action (diagnosis and prognosis) developed by different educational actors (teachers, university students and high school students) between 1990 and 2014. Methodologically, the article is based on a descriptive quantitative analysis of a database that follows the Protest Event Analysis (AEP) method, including 1,468 protest events. The results show the hybridization of the discursive tactics deployed in the protests by the classic social movements (teachers) and NMS (student movement) and the differences that exist concerning the protests' discursive frames over time of these groups. In this way, the article identifies convergences and divergences between actors and certain transversal changes over time, which allows discussing the potentialities and limitations of the theory of old and new social movements.

    This data article describes the dataset of the International COVID-19 Impact on Parental Engagement Study (ICIPES). ICIPES is a collaborative effort of more than 20 institutions to investigate the ways in which, parents and caregivers built capacity engaged with children's learning during the period of social distancing arising from global COVID-19 pandemic. A series of data were collected using an online survey conducted in 23 countries and had a total sample of 4,658 parents/caregivers. The description of the data contained in this article is divided into two main parts. The first part is a descriptive analysis of all the items included in the survey and was performed using tables and figures. The second part refers to the construction of scales. Three scales were constructed and included in the dataset: "parental acceptance and confidence in the use of technology", "parental engagement in children's learning" and "socioeconomic status". The scales were created using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Multi-Group Confirmatory Analysis (MG-CFA) and were adopted to evaluate their cross-cultural comparability (i.e., measurement invariance) across countries and within subgroups. This dataset will be relevant for researchers in different fields, particularly for those interested in international comparative education. (C) 2021 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Inc.
