NIGRO, Patricia. The Use of Television in Educational Communities: A Qualitative Study in Buenos Aires, Argentina. educ.educ. [online]. 2011, vol.14, n.1, pp.29-47. ISSN 0123-1294.
The results of a study on the use of television in the educational communities of middle-class elementary schools in the city of Buenos Aires are presented in this article. The objectives were to describe the relationships that emerge when speaking with parents, teachers and students about what television is and how it is used by middleclass children in Buenos Aires. A qualitative method was employed and 63 three in-depth interviews were conducted with teachers, parents, and fourth and fifth grade pupils (ages nine and ten). Afterwards, their replies were categorized for analysis. Among the conclusions, it was found that educators (parents and teachers) are unable to agree on the educational influence television has on children. Parents feel responsible for their children's media consumption, and children consume a large quantity of programs for adults.
