Enkele oorwegings by die onderrig van Sepedi (spreektaal) in blanke skole, st. 3 - 7Lotter, Annette 11 February 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Curriculum Studies) / It would appear that the task of the school in a multi cultural society is becoming more complex. It is not only expected of the school to educate the children of the society in totality towards the accepted particular adulthood, but the task of the school is also to provide for the current needs of society, and to anticipate possible problems of the future. In the context of human relations an African Language was introduced into White Schools on a regional basis in an attempt to bring about better understanding among the population groups. This was also done in order to provide the White child with the opportunity to communicate with the Black in his own language. After considering the current subject - curricula for Sepedi (Spoken Language) and the related teaching practice, the conclusion was made that the subject does'nt succeed in accomplishing its aims. No evidence could be found of an thorough situation - analysis in which the nature of society, the nature of the learner and the subjectcontent have been considered. Some deficiencies in the curriculum resulted from this. An evaluation of the subject curricula showed that one of the most important shortcomings seemed to be that the curriculum was'nt planned and designed to accepted curriculum principles. A further shortcoming was that no attention was given to the linguistic - phenomenon of pragmatic interference, which implies that the child, while learning Sepedi (Spoken Language) should not only learn the language, but also gain experience in the culture, rules of discourse, behaviour, norms and values underlying the target language...

An alternative approach to the teaching and learning of Northern Sotho first language (L1)Masenya, Malesela Jan 11 March 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. / The point of departure in this research is that the teaching and learning of Northern Sotho (Ll) as a mother tongue or first language to its speakers should be on the same footi.ng with the teaching and learning of any other mother tongue elsewhere in the world. While universal principles of first language (Ll) instruction are followed, they should be adapted to suit Northern Sotho as a separate language. This is necessary because of the unique nature of Northern Sotho and the language's position viz a viz its speakers. The following problems are at present experienced teaching and learning of Northern Sotho as a formal subject: - lack of adequate scientific research in the teaching and learning of Northern Sotho on being introduced as a school subject; - some teachers still follow the second and third language approaches in teaching the subject; - the observed negative attitude of teachers and pupils alike towards the subject; - the status of Northern Sotho in a multilingual South Africa in which it is relegated to a so-called 'regional language'. In an attempt to ameliorate the situation, the researcher will focus attention on the following: - a review of the curriculum and the syllabi. Differentiation is necessary, hence the researcher will suggest two types of syllabi; namely a more 'culture bound syllabus' and a 'scientifically' orientated syllabus' for those pupils who wish to specialize in universal Language Studies and Linguistics. - curriculum enrichment as a measure to correct attitudes. - the teaching of Northern Sotho for specific purposes. In a multilingual country like South Africa, an African Language like Northern Sotho still has a role to play, for example, as a vehicle of culture. An alternative approach to the teaching and learning of Northern Sotho will presumably improve the status of Northern Sotho as a sUbject and thus ensure its survival as a school subject In future.

A genre-theoretic analysis of sports texts in SepediMaruma, Mamalatswa Walburga 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study utilises the theoretical framework of text construction developed by Grabe and
Kaplan (1996) for the analysis of Sepedi sports articles from Bona Magazine. This includes
linguistic elements which are applicable in language learning to equip learners with analytic
skills. These skills are indicated in the Curriculum 2005 for the learning area: languages.
These skills will enable learners to analyse the discourse structure of written texts
effectively.
Use is made of various textlinguistic strategies for analysing written genre texts on sports
matters. Including these strategies in language learning and teaching situation will help
learners to understand how language is used in text analysis. In order to demonstrate
how to analyse texts practically, these strategies are investigated through sports texts from
Bona Magazine.
This study demonstrates the importance of generic factors for a proper analysis of texts.
These factors include the community in which the text is produced, cultural factors and the
communicative purpose of a text. In exploring the generic features of texts, the definition
of the term text is investigated, including all its characteristics, textlinguistic construction
and levels of text analysis are also identified.
This study demonstrates the importance of including the parameters of the ethnography of
writing advanced by Grabe and Kaplan (1996) in the analysis of the linguistic structure of
texts. The ethnography of writing entails that a thorough text analysis should address the
following question: AWho writes what to whom for what purpose, why, when and hews.
The study examines the importance of utilising text analysis in language learning and
teaching.
The study also demonstrates the relationship between the theoretical aspects examined
and the learning outcomes of Curriculum 2005. The study thus demonstrates how the
theoretical framework discusses is applicable in the analysis of Sepedi texts. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie maak gebruik van die teoretiese raamwerk van tekskonstruksie ontwikkel
deur Grabe en Kaplan (1996) vir die analise van Sepedi sport artikels vanuit die BONA
tydskrif. Hierdie tekslinguistiese model sluit in die linguistiese elemente wat toepaslik is in
taalleer en wat leerders met analitiese vaardighede toerus. Hierdie vaardighede word in
Kurrikulum 2005 gespesifiseer vir die leerarea van tale. Hierdie vaardighede stelleerders in
staat om die diskoers struktuur van geskrewe teks te analiseer.
Die studie maak gebruik van In verskeidenheid tekslinguistiese strategieë vir die analise van
geskrewe genres oor sportsake. Die insluiting van die onderrig van hierdie strategieë sal
leerders help om te verstaan hoe taal gebruik word in terme van teksanalise. Ten einde die
praktiese toepassing van die analise van tekste te illustreer, word die betrokke
tekslinguistiese strategieë ondersoek met verwysing na die BONAtekste.
Die tesis demonstreer die belang van genre-analitiese eienskappe in die analise van tekste.
Hierdie faktore hou o.a. verband met gemeenskap waarin die teks geproduseer word,
kulturele faktore, en die kommunikatiewe doelstelling van die teks. In die ondersoek van
die genre-analitiese eienskappe van tekste, word die definisie van die term teks ondersoek,
insluitende die tekslinguistiese konstruksie en die vlakke van teks-analise.
Die studie demonstreer voorts die belang van die parameters van die etnografie van skryf,
soos voorgestel deur Grabe en Kaplan in die analise van die struktuur van tekste. Die
etnografie van skryf hou in dat In deeglike analise van tekste die volgende vrae moet
aanspreek: "Wie skryf wat aan wie, vir watter doel, hoekom, waar en hoe." Die studie
ondersoek die belang van die gebruik van teksanalise in leer en onderrig.
Die studie demonstreer ook die verband tussen teoretiese aspekte en die leeruitkomste van
Kurrikulum 2005. Die studie toon aan hoe die teoretiese raamwerk toepaslik is in die
analise van Sepedi tekste. / SEPEDI SENAGANWA: Kakanyothema ye e somisa kakanyo ya semolomo ya hlamo ya dingwalwa, ye e

Some restrictions on the sesotho transitivizing morphemesMachobane, ʾMalillo. January 1989 (has links)
This thesis examines the argument structures of applicative and causative verbs in Sesotho, and proposes conditions which they must comply with. It is argued that the two conditions in question are in fact general conditions on argument structure rather than restrictions specific to the individual suffixes. The first, the Thematic Hierarchy Condition, which accounts for the unacceptability of unaccusative verbs and experiencer verbs with a Benefactive argument, follows from a universal tendency to have the highest thematic role as the external argument. The second, the Internal Argument Principle, which accounts for the unacceptability of the applicative and causative suffixes with verbs that take two obligatory internal arguments, follows from the fact that basic verbs across languages take no more than two internal arguments. It is argued that this second principle does not follow from Case Theory or Theta Theory. / This thesis also demonstrates that the distinction between structural and inherent Case plays an important role in morphology. It accounts for certain differences between causatives and applicatives, including the unacceptability of causative verbs with an S$ sp prime$ complement and the order in which the applicative and causative suffixes appear.

Towards a methodological model for the teaching of Northern Sotho poetry at colleges of educationMasola, Isaac Sello 06 September 2012 (has links)
D.Ed. / The aim of the research study is to design a methodological model for teaching Northern Sotho poetry at Colleges of Education so that teaching poetry will retain a spirit of delightfulness and cultivate a sensitivity of appreciation in pupils. They should grow as persons and learn to expand their imaginations so as to experience aesthetic pleasure. The various components of the syllabus for the Secondary Teachers' Diploma were investigated to determine whether they are relevant to secondary schools for which prospective teachers are being prepared. The opinions of lecturers, teachers and other educationists who are, or were involved in the teaching of Northern Sotho were considered and relevant study sources were used as a basis for the research study. A detailed comparative teaching and learning model for the study of Northern Sotho poetry was developed and a recommended model was designed which does not isolate Northern Sotho poetry teaching from that of classical languages, but identifies Northern Sotho poetry as having its own unique characteristics which, to a certain extent, provide its uniqueness. When analysing and determining the various types of Northern Sotho poetry and their characteristics, the difference between Western poetry and Northern Sotho poetry can be distinguished clearly. The historical development of Northern Sotho poetry, showing the various trends and thematic periods, was traced from as far back as 1935. The thesis provides a background of the types and characteristics of classical poetry and determines a model for the implementation of the teaching of Northern Sotho poetry, seeing that the absence of well-formulated aims and objectives is one of the weaknesses in the current Secondary Teachers' Diploma syllabus. Various pedagogical-didactical approaches are highlighted with emphasis on the communicative approach as a recommended childcentred approach. A model for teaching and evaluating Northern Sotho poetry has been formulated and its practical implementation is recommended. The research study culminates in practical pedagogic-didactical proposed measures which will enhance and improve the quality of teaching and evaluating Northern Sotho poetry. A selection of Northern Sotho poems, available for the various classes, was chosen and analysed in detail. The constitution and function of a Selection Committee and a Reviewing Book Committee was recommended with suggestions for membership. Outstanding poets and their contributions to Northern Sotho, which represent traditional as well as modern poetry, were selected as examples of the various methods used in preparing lesson/s on various poems. The thesis provides detailed information for prospective teachers in Northern Sotho poetry, which should be included in their syllabus, namely aims and objectives, content, teaching and learning methodology, testing and evaluation and also a model for evaluating literature and poetry in general. I sincerely hope that the study will be an incentive to developing a spirit of delight in Northern Sotho poetry as well as provoke critical response from lecturers, teachers and pupils alike, so that the teaching and learning of poetry will become the joy it deserves to be.

Complexity in task-based course design for Sepedi in police interviewsBergh, Petrus Lodewikus 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA (African Languages))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007. / The purpose of this study is to apply existing theories with regard to second language acquisition in a South African context, in order to address specific needs of Sepedi second language learners in the South African Police Service, with specific focus on the Community Service Centre and within the guidelines of the Batho Pele principles.
The study presents an overview on Universal Grammar and the roles it played within second language acquisition as well as the principles and parameters it presented for language development. It further analysed the acquisition processes of languages and the roles the learner plays as individual and part of a social interacting group.
Form-meaning connections utilised by learners is defined as a fundamental aspect for both first and second language acquisitions are discussed broadly in the study, inclusive of the psycholinguistic consequences as well as other input factors that may influence form-meaning connections. The specific role of language instruction is also reviewed in this study. Specific focus is placed on the roles of implicit and explicit instruction and the effectiveness thereof in second language acquisitioning and noticing.
Task-based theories were also evaluated, with the accent on the definition of tasks, task characteristics, task grading and other factors relating to tasks such as procedural factors. The role of tasks was further explored in second language acquisition, inclusive of the variables that need to be addressed. The definition of tasks into focussed and unfocused tasks are also scrutinized against the learner interaction in the acquisition process.
The implementation of tasks and the impact thereof on comprehension and language acquisition is also reviewed. Different models of methods to design a focussed task are discussed. The successful acquisition of a second language will also be based on the correct collation of data and the sequencing thereof in such manners to allow learners the opportunity to comprehend it as sufficiently as possible. The study further focuses on the methodology of task-based teaching and the use of communicative tasks in second language acquisition. Finally the interviews between the community and the police officials are then analysed in respect of complexity models, against the cognitive and syntactic complexity for specific purposes as well against the genre-approach to second language teaching. The characterizing of such interviews will allow the defining and grading of tasks to ensure sound development of teaching models for second language learning.
