Cover Story: Relational classroom aspects form complex patterns. The patterns can be analyzed through networks, which provide a powerful framework to describe classroom complexity. Here, we used networks to explore the interpersonal domain, via social networks, and the representational domain through collective semantic networks. We investigated a physics high school classroom using sociometric tests and words freely evoked by students. We then searched for relationships between social ties’ weights in social networks and emerging consensus in semantic networks. Our findings show closer relationships between social tie weight and consensus formed on intra-school representational objects, whereas consensus on extra-school representational objects is less dependent on the classroom interpersonal tie strength.
