Abstract
There is a close correlation between the idea of curriculum, the idea of school and the impact of the school with the media. We can not intervene to guide the relationship between school and media, without taking into account the interference caused by the curriculum or by theories that explain and justify the idea of school as well as interpreted in practice. We will try to show that the most popular curriculum model can not be totally helpful for a correct and productive relationship between school and media. This model, which suggests, reductively, the curriculum as a simple cultural container, is related to an idea of school as an institution merely responsible for literacy and cultural transmission, and fails to think about media only as facilitation tools, without considering the great opportunities of media and the development of scientific research in this field.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
