- W150209996 abstract "This study provides a critical analysis of English language textbooks written for Thainprimary school students from 1960 to 1997. As an international lingua franca, English isna compulsory subject in Thailand across all school year levels. English language teachersndepend heavily upon textbooks as resources for lesson planning and pedagogical practice.nTextbooks nonetheless are neither neutral nor value free. This study entails thenapplication of critical discourse analysis to unmask the ideologies and politics thatnunderpin simple and seemingly innocuous narratives of three English language textbooksnused in Thai schools: viz., The Oxford English Course for Thailand, English Is Fun, andnOn the Springboard. The study begins with an historical overview of the socioculturalncontext of Thai education and the political economies of textbook production andndistribution. Methods of data analysis include critical discourse analysis, pictorial andnvisual analysis, and story grammar. These disclose the social and ideological constructionnof the texts as instruments of educational hegemony across three decades during whichntime the agrarian and industrial Thai economy became increasingly globalized. Choicesnmade by the texts' respective authors about vocabulary, the visual representation of ideasnthrough image, and layout and formatting are shown as reflecting and constructingnparticular social ideologies and versions of knowledge and childhood for the Thainchildren who were learning from and through them. The study indicates the need for morencritical approaches in English language learning so students better understand how textnfunctions as powerful selective traditions of cultural values and knowledge whichnpotentially shape their identities and civic capacities.n" @default.
