Abstract

The article tells about the motives of admission of the ninth grade graduates to college. The research topic is relevant because it is important to study popular educational routes of Russian children, ways of accumulating educational and professional capital, orientation of young people to obtain technical specialties, the relevance of the document analysis method in empirical sociology. The materials of Internet journalism were analyzed, specifically posted on the web articles that justify the advantages of leaving school and studying at college. The author presents ratings of motives for choosing secondary special education in texts for 2018 and 2023. The content of journalistic materials was studied using qualitative methods, content analysis and with the support of relevant computer services. It has been established that the most stable and frequent argumentations in Internet journalism in 2018 and 2023 are the possibility of not passing the unified state exam, obtaining a profession, preparing for university admission. The prevailing motives are related to the lengthening of the student's educational route and the acceleration of professionalization. From the rating of reasons for choosing a college in 2023, the opinion about the availability of budget training disappeared, but there was a justification to continue the family dynasty of technical specialists. Compared to 2018, the rank of the motive for the optimal organization of the educational process in colleges has decreased. Also, the hope for individual attention to the student from the teachers has weakened. The results of the research can be applied in social policy in the fields of education and employment, especially to assess the readiness of school graduates to obtain a technical profession. The methodological conclusions of the project on the analysis of documents in empirical research are useful for students of sociological specialties.
