The course is divided into two parts. The first part is dedicated to illustrating the conditions that make the socialization process necessary and possible, the ways in which this process unfolds in the life course of individuals and the function that the agencies that formally or informally deal with it play in it: family, school, peer group, media. The second part focuses on the presentation of the methodologies and main techniques used in social field research, with particular reference to what is conducted in educational contexts. With the intention of providing an example of how an empirical research is conducted, some lessons will then be dedicated to the description of the methodological framework and the results of a survey conducted on a group of primary school students.
