| Tiivistelmä: | The ways in which futures are conceptualized in the language of Australian education are examined. From and analysis of selected examples of research reports, policy documents and other texts, it is suggested that that futures in Australian educational discourse are often conceived in terms of /1/ tacit inferences, /2/ token invocations or /3/ taken for granted assumptions. Conceptualizing futures in such ways may be disempowering and allows education in Australia to be vulnerable to forces of economic and technological determinism. The analytical framework employed may have wider applications. Problems of conceptualizing futures in education have parallels in the mass media, commerce and government. |
