Abstract

The main purpose of the paper is to explore the use of the concept of participation among scholars affiliated with the réseau PÉRISCOPE (Plateforme Échange, Recherche et Intervention sur la SCOlarité : Persévérance et réussitE), advocates of the activity theory (Engeström, 1987-2015 ; Vygotsky, 1978) via a transversal analysis. Scientific literature offered via this research network database between 2015 and 2019 constitute the datas from which agents’ activity is examined in their own context (class, school, community, etc.). In order to identify the different uses and understandings of the concept of the participation among these scholars, a lexicometric analysis was performed. This methodology is actually based on linguistic and is wielded by different historical approaches as history of ideas, history of concepts and discourse analysis. It appears that the notion of students’ engagement stands out in the corpus, which supports the scientific interpretation of the notion of participation that gives way to engagement. Moreover, the réseau PÉRISCOPE scientific activities generated a renewed interest for specific themes of research such as the participation, school dropout, school perseverance, and academic results. Our analysis suggests also that the scientific literature on participation tends to have a peculiar focus on teens. Finally, actions associated with students contribute to nuance and to detail scholars’ understanding of the concept of participation in educational context. Linguistic associations’ analysis of this corpus constitutes a key instrument for a better insight into the use and mobilization of the concept of the participation.
