The Concept of Culture.
McLeod, John
Unicorn, Bulletin of the Australian College of Education, v13 n2 p68-74 May 1987
National identity and schooling are predicated on a particular yet ill-defined view of culture. To counter "popular" and "high" culture polarizations and arguments for cultural pluralism, this paper proposes that curricula be designed for student access to forms and symbols defining Australian culture through discourse and artistic self-expression. Includes 19 references. (MLH)
