Knowledge-management : an analysis of change in New South Wales secondary English curricula, 1962-1972

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Sociological analysis has increasingly focused on the content of education, on the knowledge transmitted in schools. However this examination has been hampered by the paucity of information extant about the process by which curricula are constructed and presented in schools. This study, a case-study of curriculum change in New South Wales Secondary Schools, attempts to contribute to our understanding of what knowledge is transmitted and of changes taking place by (1) comparing the curricular ideology of the most recent English to the previous one. (2) exploring the social location of this ideology.
