摘要

Why is it that Prime Minister John Howard wants to micro-manage English curricula? Why does how teachers teach English and Literature regularly make it to the front and editorial pages of the national dailies? The author attempts to critique that phenomenon, to explain her state of mind - that of being both alert and alarmed. The latest round of the debate began with Tony Thompson\u27s article, \u27English Lite is a tragedy for students\u27, in \u27The Age\u27 on 12 September 2005. He was concerned that VCE English might be reduced to a single print text and he was alarmed about the watering-down of curriculum driven by \u27postmodern notions\u27. The author is at odds with many of Thompson\u27s views and discusses her stance on various aspects of his propositions. Issues examined include Thompson\u27s argument that no multimodal text yields as much significance as a piece of genuine literature; that students are not being \u27stretched\u27 far enough; the false dichotomy between aesthetic/formalist manoeuvres on the one hand and postmodern ones on the other; how texts make meaning to students as consumers and the rationale for the use of pop culture texts to connect with students.
