In Mexico, upper secondary education (high-school) faces several challenges, among them a “formative emergency” as students, understood as the multiplicity of dimensions that configure them as subjects in order to get recognition. One of the possible answers to this emergency could be the configuration of pedagogical micro-devices oriented to develop practices of self-care as the opening, sedimentation and cross-linking that characterizes that kind of devices could produce meeting points that allow access to the Truth about oneself, the construction of meaning and the transformation of the subjects.Product of genealogical work and an interpretative approach, is the analysis of various practices carried out in a High School which belongs to the Institute of Higher Secondary Education, to locate conditions, between the traditional and unpublished, which make possible the configuration of such micro-devices. As a result, structure and duration are found in some of them, in others, an ephemeral configuration. Along with all these processes, the most important are Teachers’ answers, as well as the connections between the unexpected and the leaks from school sedimentation, as well as the folds that all this allows in the students, who eventually achieve a government over themselves expressed in actions to transform their existence. If all of that is achieved, schools may be an important event in young people lives.
