摘要

香港課程發展議會在2001年公佈初、高中「中國語文教育學習領域‧中國語文課程指引」（簡稱「指引」）。本文根據指引關於課程規劃與教材組織的內容，考察架構示例和教科書有沒有具體落實指引的主張。論證發現指引關於教材編選的原則是有理論依據的，但架構示例沒有把它落實下來，因而影響現行七套教科書的編寫。文章就有關的問題作出討論，最後根據理論依據，建構一個符合指引精神的課程規劃。

關鍵詞：課程指引；教科書；編選體系

Abstract

The Curriculum Development Council has proposed a “Chinese Language Education Key Learning Area Curriculum Guide” for secondary schools in 2001. In the new curriculum guide, an “open and flexible framework” has been developed for the writing of textbooks, and a series of exemplary learning units for secondary 1 to 3 have been supplied. To implement these, clear guiding principles are introduced in the new curriculum guide for teachers’ reference. Based on these exemplary learning units, conventional publishers have produced 7 sets of textbooks which are being in use in 2002. Viewing from the perspectives of curriculum design and teaching and learning materials development, this paper examines the effectiveness of implementing these new ideas. It is found that the selection and writing of teaching and learning materials are based on grounded theory. However, the exemplary learning units are unable to put them in real practice which directly affects the writing of textbooks. This paper discusses this issue and suggests a new direction for the implementation of principles introduced in the new curriculum guide.
