Task 1: Curriculum Reform in SA

Challenges in Previous Curriculum Policies: Need for a New Policy Statement in Post-
Apartheid South Africa

Post-apartheid, from 1994, South Africa commenced transformations in many areas, including
the education and learning structure. This invited curriculum reform with the aim to heal the
divisions of the past and establish a society based on democratic values, social justice and
fundamental human rights, among other things (HSRC, 2009 in Moodley 2013).

Just like with any change, the curriculum reform did not happen smoothly as one would have
expected. According to Moodley (2013), South African educators have experienced difficulties
understanding and implementing various previous curriculum policies such as Curriculum 2005,
which was implemented in 1998 and the Revised National Curriculum Statement, which was
mandated by the education minister in 2002. These difficulties resulted in the Department of
Basic Education (DBE) reintroducing the national Curriculum and Assessment Policy
Statements (CAPS) in 2012. According to Moodley (2013), CAPS was intended to improve
teaching and learning.

Below is the timeline reflecting Curriculum reform and reviews from c2005 (OBE based
learning) to Revised National Curriculum Statement, and to the recent CAPS:

Task 2: Current Trends in Teaching Practice

Promoting Constructivist Learning: Floor Plan Design for Active Engagement and
Collaboration in a Further Education and Training Phase Classroom

The classroom layout, designed with a constructivist approach in mind, promotes a conducive
learning environment from the perspective of a FET phase teacher. Essential resources like a
blackboard, bookcases, and storage cupboards are easily accessible at the front of the
classroom, supporting smooth lesson delivery and classroom management. Tables arranged
in clusters and desks grouped in sets of six with a slight slant encourage collaboration and
engagement among students (Arduini-Van Hoose, 2020). Flexible seating options like pillows,
bean bags, or lower table legs provide choices for students to support their learning style and
comfort. To foster student-centered learning, the teacher's desk is positioned at the back of
the classroom, and a designated computer zone on the back left side allows for independent
research and collaboration using technology (Kelly, 2020; Wade, 2016). This arrangement
also ensures that the blackboard is not obstructed and allows the teacher to easily notice any
discipline issues. It can also make learners feel less intimidated as the teacher is not
constantly in front of them (Kelly, 2020). The computer zone provides access to technology
for research and collaboration, supporting exploration and application of knowledge in real -
world contexts. Each group of six learners can nominate a member for computer research,
ensuring equal opportunities. This can encourage students to independently formulate and
test their ideas, draw conclusions, and convey their knowledge in a collaborati ve learning
environment (Wade, 2016). Consideration for accessibility needs of all students, including
those with disabilities, is also taken into account, with provisions made for ease of movement
and additional seating options (Kelly, 2020). Overall, the classroom layout is carefully
designed to align with constructivist principles, promoting engagement, collaboration, and
exploration in a FET phase classroom setting.

Constructivism, as a learning theory, views learners as active participants in the learning


process, with an emphasis on personal meaning through reflection, analysis, and incremental
knowledge development. Strategies such as reflection, seminars, discussion forums, small
group work, and projects are commonly used to facilitate constructivist learning (Yussif,

5|P a g e
2022). In the classroom, the constructivist model for implementation, as defined by the
Biological Science Curriculum Study (BSCS), emphasizes engaging students, allowing them
to explore, facilitating explanation, elaborating on learning, and ongoing evaluation. Teachers
align with this model by connecting prior knowledge, facilitating group discussions, and
encouraging students to articulate their learning. Learners have access to resources like
computers and a library to support their elaboration on concepts. Ongoing assessment and
feedback guide instruction, with teachers actively circulating to check progress and provide
guidance, using probing questions to challenge assumptions and clarify thinking (Arduini -Van
Hoose, 2020). Constructivism also emphasizes group work and collaborative learning, with
teachers differentiating between facilitation and control, and being open to relinquishing
control of seating arrangements for the approach to work effectively. Allowing students to use
reading sections for quiet reading time can also be considered (Dornfeld, 2016).

C. Summary of the content to cover

Briefly describe ‘what’ content you need to cover. This will inform the lesson
objectives and choice of teaching strategy.

The content covers the concept of quality in a business context and its relation to
various business functions. Quality refers to the degree of excellence or superiority
of something, often measured against a set of standards or expectations. In a
business context, quality can relate to functions such as human resources,
production, administration, financial management, and overall management
practices. Each of these functions has specific quality considerations, such as

recruiting and retaining top talent in human resources, producing reliable and safe
products, establishing efficient and effective administration processes, managing
financial resources responsibly, and promoting a positive business image.
Ultimately, quality management involves planning, organizing, leading, and
controlling business operations to achieve the desired level of quality in all aspects
of the business.

D. Lesson Objectives

List the objectives for this specific lesson below. Use the verbs from Blooms
Taxonomy to frame your objectives.

11 | P a g e
1. By the end of this lesson, learners will be able to define what quality in business
entails and identify the set of standards that differentiate something that is of
high quality and another of
subpar quality (BS Department of Basic Education, 2011).
2. By the end of this lesson, learners will be able to critically examine and break
down the concept of quality to comprehend the importance of quality in
business context and its impact on various business functions such as human
resources, production, administration, financial
management, and overall management practices (BS Department of Basic
Education, 2011).
3. By the end of this lesson, learners will be able to creatively think about solutions
for improving the overall quality of management of a business by synthesizing
information from the case studies and applying critical thinking skills (BS
Department of Basic Education, 2011).

E. Curriculum Integration (if relevant)

Briefly describe how this lesson integrates content, skills or knowledge from other
areas of the curriculum (if relevant).

This lesson integrates into the Life Orientation’s Chapter 3, Week 4 - 5 (Unit 3: Socio-
economic factors in study and career choices). Unit 3, in the Life Orientation Grade
10 FET CAPS document, focuses on the cognitive development about life and career
choices and since this lesson will be closely teaching learners about organizational
structure and functioning, when learners are also doing their Unit 3 in L.O, they will
be able to understand specific sub-sections or sub-topics in the Life Orientation class
more especially aspect of finances, business management as a career, life domains
and socio-economic underpinnings (LO Department of Basic Education, 2011).

Learners can draw their knowledge gained in this section to the L.O lesson, more
especially observing the fact that this lesson is delivered in week 3 of term 1 and the
L.O Unit 3 lesson follows during week 4 – 5 of term 1 (LO Department of Basic
Education, 2011).

12 | P a g e
F. Rationale for Lesson Design

Consider the following questions and write a paragraph that responds to these
questions in the space provided below:

1. How does the knowledge of this topic inform choices for learning design?
• What is the main idea/s and most important things to know about this topic?
• What ways of thinking and doing are important for learning this topic?
• How do these inform the design of learning tasks and sequencing of lesson
steps?

2. How do learners and their diversities inform choices for lesson design?
• How have you considered the learning support needs in this class?
• How have I ensured that all learners may participate and learn?

3. How do opportunities in this context inform choices for lesson design?


• What possibilities and constraints have I considered?

1. The main idea about this topic is to be able to define quality and the importance of
maintaining good quality in all areas of business. They need to ask themselves
questions like “What is the concept of quality?” “What are the quality indicators?”
“How can quality be assured?”. By asking themselves these questions, they can
continually check for gaps in their own knowledge.
For learners to fully benefit from this lesson, they need to take a hands-on
approach to learning, be analytical and creative thinkers, and have an eye for
detail. As teacher I can better tailor the class activities to develop my learners’
analytical and creative thinking by having them engage in activities such as
class discussions and case-study analyses. By doing so, I am also
encouraging them to have a hands-on approach in applying the knowledge
acquired in this lesson. Having discussions about this topic, will familiarize
learners with ways of talking about quality and help them understand how their
peers and fellow consumers think about quality.
Taking the above objectives into account, I need to break down complex topics

13 | P a g e
into smaller more understandable content if I am to teach learners to effectively
communicate and become detail oriented. Supporting this idea, I need to also
ensure that all information provided in the lesson is accurate and accompanied
by real-situation examples. I also need to provide clear and concise instructions
and explanations and give clear feedback throughout the lesson.

2. A lesson should be designed in such a way as to engage learners with different


support needs and encourage active participation by all learners, through case
studies, group discussions,
problem-solving exercises, and real-world simulations. By checking in with
learners to ensure that they are on track, I can ensure that I notice any learning
support needs that pop up. I have also considered and accommodated the
different learning styles (auditory, visual, and kinaesthetic learning) adopted by
different learners. To help learners who learn in different ways, we should plan
lessons in different ways. This means changing how we organize and plan
activities during class (Department of Basic Education, 2016).

3. In designing this lesson, I thought about how I could successfully teach the
concept of quality in business in our South African context. I hope to
accommodate different learning styles, persons from different cultural
backgrounds and include inclusive language and materials. To cater for learners
who have learning difficulties, I will, for example, use multi-sensory teaching
strategies such as visual aids, hands-on activities, and use audio or video
materials. I have also considered constraints that may exist such as limited time
or resources. I hope to adopt a flexible stance and adapt the lesson to my
learners’ needs. Doing the above, I hope to create a warm and welcoming
environment for my learners.

G. Teaching and learning strategies

Introduction: To assess prior knowledge, I will follow


Inquiry-based an enquiry-based learning approach.
learning Following the KWL (Know, Want to

14 | P a g e
Discussion know, Learnt) chart as a guide, I will
start by asking my learners to
brainstorm what they understand
about the topic, what they want to know
about the topic and what they have
learnt by the end of the lesson.
Following this sort of structured enquire,
allows learners to identify gaps in their
own knowledge and encourages them
to think creatively and analytically about
the topic at hand and find a way to
relate complex topics to real-life
situations. This also allows me and my
learners to have a visual representation
of the learning process (Data Analysis,
2022). As an introduction activity, I will
write this chart on the board, hand out
sticky notes and allow learners to jot
down their ideas, and then post them to
the board. This encourages visual and
kinaesthetic learners to engage in class
right from the start.
K - What I already Know ?
W - What I Want to Learn ?
L - What I Learned ?

On the whiteboard/blackboard, write


down some binary questions that
present common misconceptions about
the concept of quality and ask learners
to raise their hands and discuss
whether they think it is true/ false or if
they agree/disagree with the
statements. This kind of strategy can

15 | P a g e
be used to test prior knowledge on the
subject area (McTighe, 2021). For
example:

Kinaesthetic learning during the learning process. I will move from a
teacher-directed teaching method to a learner
centered one as the learners become more
confident in their understanding of the topic and
the application thereof. In providing a lecture to
learners on the main idea of the lesson and give
them examples of the real-life applications of the
material discussed, learners will have a stronger
foundation to build on as they complete the
subsequent group activities. This strategy also
includes guided practice and feedback (Renard,
2021). According to Johnson and Johnson
(n.d.), cooperative learning involves organizing
learners into small groups to collaborate and

16 | P a g e
enhance their own learning as well as that of
their peers. By using Netflix's marketing strategy
as a hook activity, I will help learners get an idea
of what quality in business looks like in real-life,
and how it can be used to create a successful
brand.
Visualisation is used in this lesson because it
helps learners view a complex topic in a simpler,
clear and systematic way (Main, n.d.). Handouts
such as the quality checklist is also included to
help learners process information.
Teamwork is used in this lesson as a form of
cooperative learning because it caters for
learners of different ability levels (Main, n.d.).
Writing for learning: Asking learners to make
bullet points lists of their ideas on the topic.
Kinaesthetic learning: Hands-on activities are
used to encourage learners to maintain their
interests and encourage learners who
understand things better when
they touch it to participate (Main, n.d.).
