Sociometry and coexistence resources

What a school sociogram is, how to read classroom-climate indicators, and how to measure cyber-coexistence without alarmism.

For teachers, tutors / responsible teachers, and counselors: school sociometry, classroom climate, and cyber-coexistence, with clear ethical limits.

What school sociometry is (and isn’t)

School sociometry describes how peers relate in a classroom: who they choose to work or play with, who is left out, and how cohesive the group is. The best-known output is the sociogram.

In class and in tutoring it helps with grouping, seating, playground duty, and designing supports. It does not diagnose bullying, ADHD, or other clinical issues, and it does not label students.

ConvivAula collects digital or paper questionnaires and produces role-specific indicators and reports. Information syncs across the school's devices.

Classroom climate indicators without alarmism

A high isolation or rejection indicator is not a verdict: it is a signal to look more closely. ConvivAula’s language avoids diagnoses and alarmist wording.

Cohesion and inclusion show whether the group is fragmented or whether some students are systematically on the margins. Running the questionnaire again shows whether a change (seating, tutoring, playground) had an effect.

Reports are tailored for tutoring, counseling, and leadership so each role gets the detail it needs.

Cyber-coexistence: measure carefully

Coexistence no longer happens only in the classroom or playground. A cyber-coexistence questionnaire can complement the sociogram if it is read with the same caution.

It does not replace bullying protocols or the school’s reporting channel. It helps spot digital tensions that then need to be checked.

As with the rest of ConvivAula, answers stay in the school file. The web pass only stores temporary ciphertext, without the key, and is deleted when closed or after 48 hours.
