Unraveling EU Policies: the �����Common Basic Principles����� and the �����European Integration Fund����� as a technology of government

this paper is about EU ���soft policies��� on immigrant integration. It analyzes the ���Common Basic Principles��� (CBPs) and the ���European Integration Fund��� (EIF), two devices that have been recently established within this framework. It adopts the theoretical perspective of the ���anthropology of policy��� and ���governmentality studies���. It shows the context of birth of the aforementioned devices, as well as their functioning and the assessment done by the actors implied in the elaboration/implementation/evaluation of the related policies. It is based both on documentary research as well as direct observation and interviews done to the actors implied. It concludes that the PBC and the EIF should be considered as a ���technology of government���, that strives to align the conduct of the actors with the governmental aims, as well as it produces specific practices and knowledge. It also underlines an intrinsic feature of many policies: their ���congenital failure���, since they are (often) disputed and resignified by situated actors, who are embedded in asymmetrical power relations.

Calibration of assessment instruments ��� classification in mathematics at the Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano

Item Response Theory, IRT, is a valuable methodology for analyzing the quality of the instruments utilized in assessment of academic achievement. This article presents an implementation of the mentioned theory, particularly of the Rasch model, in order to calibrate items and the instrument used in the classification test for the Basic Mathematics subject at Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano. 509 responses chains of students, obtained in the june 2011 application, were analyzed with a set of 45 items, through eight case studies that are showing progressive steps of calibration. Criteria of validity of items and of whole instrument were defined and utilized, to select groups of responses chains and items that were finally used in the determination of parameters which then allowed the classification of assessed students by the test.
