Purpose: The module focuses on the development of pedagogical content knowledge and skills related to the Knowledge Strands 'Life and Living' as part of the Senior Phase in Natural Science and Technology Education. It specifically deals with how to teach and assess the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) more effectively by using an appropriate range of strategies and technologies to enhance learner engagement in diverse contexts. This focus will add value to both Bachelors in Education (BEd) and Advanced Certificate in Teaching (ACT) graduates whose previous studies will have focused much more on the development of the teachers' subject content knowledge in cognate disciplinary fields. The module will require students to mediate their subject content knowledge with the focus on 'Life and Living''. The module is one of the core modules of the Advanced Diploma in Education in Natural Science Education. |
