Abridged Too Far: Evidence from Teachers against the Case for Revising the Cox Curriculum.

Williamson, John; Hardman, Frank

Educational Review, v46 n3 p233-46 1994

An attitude questionnaire completed by 60 British teachers of English and a media education survey completed by 20 of them indicated they do not agree that the national curriculum should be revised by returning to narrow prescriptions and dropping media education. Teachers support a broad-based approach including personal response and critical analysis of literary, media, and nonmedia texts. (SK)
