ABSTRACT

The focus here is on English teaching and media education, with particular reference to the Australian and English contexts. It considers the role and significance of media in and for English teaching, as a school subject. It asks: What are the legacies of Cultural Studies in this regard? English teaching is considered in relation to, first, the UK national curriculum, the 1989 Cox Report and what was called ‘Cultural Analysis’, and second, the Australian Curriculum, and the programmatic shift in focus to ‘texts’. In particular, we want to think about the lost legacies of Cultural Studies: those insights and orientations that don’t seem to have been taken up, or perhaps have withered, or have fallen away. This includes Cultural Studies’ key concern with everyday life and media culture, as practice and flow. Some questions remain: What remains of Cultural Studies today, with regard to English teaching and media education? Moreover, What possibilities and prospects for curriculum renewal are there in the current conjecture, in the third decade of the 21st century?

摘要

这里的重点是英语教学和媒体教育，特别是澳大利亚和英国的背景。它考虑了媒体作为一门学校学科在英语教学中的作用和意义。它问：文化研究在这方面的遗产是什么？英语教学首先与英国国家课程、1989 年考克斯报告和所谓的“文化分析”相关，其次与澳大利亚课程和重点转向“文本”的计划转移相关。特别是，我们想想想失去的人文化研究的遗产：那些似乎没有被采纳，或者可能已经枯萎或消失的见解和方向。这包括文化研究对日常生活和媒体文化的主要关注，如实践和流动。一些问题仍然存在：在英语教学和媒体教育方面，今天的文化研究还剩下什么？此外，在目前的猜想中，21世纪的第三个十年，课程更新有哪些可能性和前景？
