Advertising "Generosity" in Schools: Do You Want Fries with Your Curriculum?
Zajdel, Joseph; Conn, Daniel R.
Curriculum and Teaching Dialogue, v20 n1-2 p71-86 2018
In this study, we explore corporate branding as an implicit curriculum and its embedded presence in the school ecology. We discuss ways in which corporate brands infiltrate schools through false generosity in an effort to make sense of the realities of teaching and learning in the presence of embedded branding and advertising. The study concludes by discussing themes of commercial normativity and modeling consumption.
