SUPPLEMENTARY EDUCATION IN BRAZILIAN CONTEXT: AN ANALYSIS BASED ON ENEM DATA

ABSTRACT

Dialoguing with the literature on shadow education, as well as with elements of the bourdieusian approach dealing with the relationship between social space and individual practices, this article aimed at analyzing the existence or not of participation patterns in supplementary courses using data from the High School National Exam (ENEM; from Portuguese, Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio) 2008. Submitted to a Multiple Correspondence Analysis, the data revealed homologies and distinctions regarding participation in different supplementary courses, as well as a relation between the patterns of participation in certain courses and the students` social condition.
