摘要大众媒体为读者提供了一个参与教育讨论的公共空间，因为他们消费和解释关键信息，而这些信息往往是由关键的教育政策形成的。本文结合澳大利亚近年来为解决教师素质“问题”而实施的一系列教师教育改革措施，提出了一个进行媒体框架分析的概念图，并利用该概念图考察了媒体对教师素质的刻画。这项研究发现，媒体通过危机和衰退的透镜来描绘澳大利亚的教育，更具体地说是教师质量，国家政策被定位为解决方案。国家政策的重点是更严格的进入和退出教师候选人的要求，或话语的投入，作为解决教育危机在澳大利亚。由于媒体在提供特定政策和/或观点方面所拥有的内在力量，本文认为需要采用五种分析手段-事件，格式，声音，问题和解决方案-来理解媒体如何描绘教师素质。
ABSTRACT Mass media provides a public space for its readers to enter the discussion on education, as they consume and interpret key messages, which are often shaped by key educational policies. With a suite of recent teacher education reform measures in Australia aimed at solving the “problem” with teacher quality, a conceptual map for conducting a media framing analysis is prop osed and utilised to examine how teacher quality is portrayed in the media. This study found that the media portrays education, and teacher quality more specifically, in Australia through a lens of crisis and decline, with national policies being positioned as the solution. National policies which focus on more rigorous entry and exit requirements for teacher candidates, or a discourse of inputs, are offered as the solution to the education crisis in Australia. With the inherent power that media holds in proffering particular policies and/or viewpoints, this paper argues for the need to employ five analytic devices – event, format, voice, problem and solution – to understand how teacher quality is portrayed in the media.
