This thesis locates the Australian National English Curriculum in its political, pedagogical, intellectual and historical contexts. It argues that the tripartite structure of the Curriculum into language, literature and literacy is the result of a flawed pedagogy pointing to wider ideological conflicts over curricula and that this structure undermines a coherent and pedagogically sound approach to the teaching of English in schools. | en_US |
