背景：廿一世紀開始香港進行教育改革，其中一項政策是發展校本課程。這項政策也引入中學中國語文新課程內，官方文件列明發展校本課程的理念及課程架構。
目的：本文旨在探討中文教師如何回應這項改革。
調查對象：本研究以有目的取樣的原則，選取三位教師，他們來自收生不同的學校，以學生學業水平分為第一、第二及第三組別。
調查方法：資料搜集包括半結構式訪談及課堂觀察。
調查結果：研究結果反映中央沒有足夠的支援協助教師發展校本課程。三位被訪教師均以其所持的信念應付這項政策：教師甲靠自己的力量帶領科組同事設計他們的校本課程，卻沒有跟從官方的框架；教師乙參加課程發展處籌辦的「種籽計畫」編選校本教材；教師丙依舊選用教科書教學，沒有理會這項政策。
總結：課程發展者必須加強對教師的支援，例如提供在職培訓課程改變教師的信念，並讓教師學習設計校本課程的知識及方法，還要安排課程發展主任到校協助發展校本課程。
Background: School-based curriculum development (SBCD) is one of the strategies of the educational reform of Hong Kong launched in the 21st century. It is introduced in the new secondary Chinese language curriculum. The rationale and curriculum framework of SBCD are laid down in official documents.
Aims: This study aimed to reveal teachers' responses to this educational change.
Sample: Three teachers were selected as informants based on purposive sample. They came from schools namely band 1, 2 and 3, with different students' level of academic standard.
Method: Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations.
Results: The results of this study found that support from central authorities to teachers had been insufficient. The three teachers were governed by their beliefs in coping with this policy requirement. Teacher A led his colleagues to design their own school-based curriculum without following the official framework. Teacher B took part in "seed project" organized by Curriculum Development Institute to develop teaching materials. Teacher C still adopted textbook for teaching as before and simply ignored the policy.
Conclusion: It is essential for curriculum developers to strengthen their support to teachers, such as providing in-service training programme for teachers to change their beliefs and acquire new knowledge and method to design school-based curriculum. Curriculum development officers should also visit schools regularly to assist with the development of school-based curriculum

背景：2000年，香港課程發展議會發表《學會學習‧學習領域‧中國語文教育〈諮詢文件〉》。提出2002年後在中學階段實施加強文學元素的新修訂中國語文課程，同時，為了加強學習內容的聯繫，高中階段也可以開設綜合的中國語文課程，其中包括現在中國語文、中國文學、中國語文及文化和普通話各科的學習；或為對文學有濃厚興趣的學生開設選修的中國文學增潤課程，以發展學生多方面的學習興趣與專門能力。因此，還須重新審視科目分合，考慮在高中階段是否仍然保留中國文學科作為選修科。
In the year 2000, the Hong Kong Curriculum Development Council published a consultation document "Learning to Learn: the Way Forward in Curriculum Development" on the Key Learning Area (KLA) of the Chinese Language Education. It was suggested strengthening the literature elements in the above KLA, and advised that an integrated Chinese Language curriculum to be offered in the senior secondary education. The new curriculum framework includes Chinese Language, Chinese Literature, Chinese Language and Culture and Putonghua, which currently are separated subjects in school curriculum. In addition, it was suggested that enrichment programmes on Chinese Literature to be provided to meet the learning needs of students who have keen interest in this area. In view of the above proposals in the consultation document, the issue of whether offering Chinese Literature as an elective subject in the current senior secondary school curriculum needs to be carefully considered.

本研究調查教師對現行中學中國文學科課程的看法和意見，作為未來課程發展的參考。研究結果，教師對現行課程內容和整體印象態度正面，對任教本科的能力和興趣有信心，對學生的看法亦態度積極，並且能在應試教育和文學教學之間取得平衡；他們希望教育當局從考試制度上去配合，發展文學教育，減輕學生考試的壓力，培養學生欣賞文學的能力。
This study investigated the teachers' views and comments on the Chinese Literature course syllabus in secondary schools for the reference of future curriculum development. It was found that the teachers were positive to the present syllabus contents and overall impression. They were confident of their abilities and interests to teach the course, and of the students' attitudes towards it. They found a certain balance between assessment and literature education. However, it was hoped that the EMB could further fine tune the assessment instruments to alleviate students' examination pressure and raise their ability in literary appreciation.

香港中文教學兼顧語文、文學及文化，這三項原也互相兼容。針對 社會人士評論香港學生文化素養及思辨能力不足之現象， 本文從文化及思辨角度切入課題討論。本文認為，中國文化之偉大在於不斷吸收 和補充新養份，中國文化不斷南移正達到這一目的。 當今世界潮流朝著民主、人權、法制、公義發展，香港社會既秉了中國文化南移 的傳統精神，又充分掌握人類社會進步的脈摶， 香港文化已成為華人社會的楷模，香港學生宜由此點反思，重訂學習目標，並將 香港建設成華夏模範城邦。
"Curriculum of Chinese" in Hong Kong consists of subjects of Chinese Language, Chinese Literature and Chinese Culture. As practices change with time, the elements of traditional Chinese culture in the content of Curriculum of Chinese has becom e less and less. In the other side, new elements like democracy, freedom, human right, justice and legality, modern management philosophy and skill, etc., is increasing in local culture of Hong Kong. Obviously, this indicated that Hong Kong society is mor e progressive than elsewhere of Chinese (including overseas Chinese) societies. This paper intended to point out that teachers of Chinese in Hong Kong should recognize this and encourage students to ponder, to criticize more about the development of moder n and contemporary culture in Hong Kong and China. Hong Kong citizens have ability to build the special region to be a model city of societies of Chinese. For this purpose, we should not change the current direction of culture development, and, to enchanc e this, our teachers should educate the young generation to study more in thinking art and contemporary culture.
