| Abstract: | Rhythm is the combination of time, space and interaction, generating energy and a cycle of time. The triadic pattern of rhythm enables researchers to analyze social structures as they are without limitations of concepts or definitions. Rhythms are inherent in everyday life, embedded in the social structures of social groups, classes and institutions. This study takes an innovative perspective and integrates rhythmanalysis into education. Although time and space studies are abundant in the literature, rhythm is an overlooked concept in education. This study analyzes the classroom as both an institutional space and a social group with the rhythmanalysis method. A classroom in a low socioeconomic neighborhood in Istanbul, Türkiye, was observed and recorded in two different lessons for 6 weeks. The discussions reveal the implications of commodity, social class and inequalities buried in the rhythm of the classroom and individual students. |
