Foucault analyzes power in educational settings through the concept of disciplinary power. [1] Power is exercised through techniques like segmentation of time, hierarchical classroom arrangements, and testing that reinforces rote learning. [2] According to Foucault, power and knowledge are intertwined - truths are results of historical processes and institutions, not universal or absolute. [3] Foucault sees examinations as combining hierarchy, normalization, and surveillance to classify, judge, and punish individuals.
