Management of the implementation of internal continuous assessment at Western College in Gauteng

Sebetlene, Selaelo Peter January 2017 (has links)
A research report submitted to the Faculty of Law and Management University of Witwatersrand, in 25% fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Management (in the field of Public and Development), 2016 / The National Certificate: Vocational (NCV) qualification was introduced at Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) colleges in 2007 to enable students to acquire necessary skills and knowledge that would prepare them effectively for the world of work. The NCV is an outcomes-based curriculum and its introduction was accompanied by a general shift to outcomes-based teaching and learning approaches, as well as a rigorous assessment and moderation regime, particularly with regards to the internal assessment (ICASS) component. The shift required lecturers to adopt multi-dimensional assessment of skills, knowledge, understanding, attitudes, values and dispositions when assessing students. The report released by Umalusi in 2014 pointed out a number of factors that negatively affect the implementation of ICASS at some TVET colleges. The aim of the study was to explore the factors that constrain or enhance the implementation of the ICASS component of the NCV at TVET colleges. Literature related to the research topic was consulted and, subsequently, document analysis and semi-structured interviews were used to determine ICASS practices applied at Western College (Westcol) for TVET. ICASS requirements as per NCV-related policies and the current ICASS practices at the college were compared to determine the factors that (including those cited by Umalusi) hinder or promote ICASS implementation. The findings reflected that lack of resources (mainly financial and physical resources, as well as under-qualified and unqualified lecturers at the college) hinder the effective implementation of the ICASS component in some subjects at the college. Furthermore, the quality of the assessment elements was of great concern. Most interviewees reported that: some of the ICASS tasks in various subjects were of poor quality; there was lack of or poor moderation of tasks; portfolios were incomplete and there was a lack of structured remedial intervention after tasks were conducted. Interviewees attributed the above situation to increased lecturers’ workloads and students’ poor class attendance. The research recommends that the college build capacity for ICASS implementation through the provision of resources, and the training and development of lecturers, as well as partnerships with industries and other institutions to complement and strengthen the college’s limited resources and to apply knowledge management practices so that the college can leverage and benefit from the knowledge it currently possesses, to improve the implementation of the internal assessment component. / XL2018

Implementation of other learning experiences of the new senior secondary curriculum in Hong Kong schools.

January 2014 (has links)
在香港的中學教育,考試主導文化乃主流,相比學科學習,非學科學習一直處於次等位置,尤以高中為甚。自二零零九年開始,其他學習經歷實施成為新高中課程中一個正規的必修部分,它包羅了五個不同非學科學習範疇,所有高中學生必需參加每一範疇的活動。鼓吹全人發展的擁護者對其他學習經歷產生莫大希冀,期望學生能從中發展均衡人生,並培養出難以從書本中學習、卻需在真實的學習經歷上體會到的正確價值觀和態度。博士生研究員進行了這項質化個案研究,以了解香港學校實施了甚麼其他學習經歷、怎樣、並為何推行。當中審視兩間學校其他學習經歷實施情況,和其中因由的相互影響過程。在批判分析並綜合校長及教師訪問,加上檢視文件後,本研究對有效實施其他學習經歷或類似的教育計畫提出了建議。 / 以 Fullan (2001a) 和Leithwood (1981) 的理論為分析框架,是次研究結果顯示政府由上而下推出的其他學習經歷已改變了香港高中學生的非學科學習。學校實施其他學習經歷得到的主要成果,乃達致了教育局在五個範疇的學習時間要求,同時,當非學科學習以具結構、並規定的其他學習經歷課程出現時,校長、教師和學生便更願意投放時間及其他資源於其中,然而尚需有更多措施以提昇其他學習經歷的質素。在各因素之中,影響其他學習經歷實施最大的因素,是社會文化觀念認為非學科學習只附屬於學科學習,這因素更抵消了學校和教師推動其他學習經歷值得敬佩的努力。在三個要素類別中,本土要素包含最多影響因素,其中教師因素最有利課程。不過實施新高中課程,包括:其他學習經歷卻令教師工作量大幅增加,妨礙其他學習經歷進一步發展。 / 建基於 Fullan (2001a)的清單,並根據本研究結果,研究員提出了十一項影響香港教育改革的因素,作為日後參考。研究對政府促進學校實施其他學習經歷作出不少建議,包括:投放更多資源,並更積極游說大學和向公眾推廣其他學習經歷。同時,學校、公眾和政府亦需要有足夠耐性,讓一個新課程慢慢在學校制度化。 / In Hong Kong, Non-academic Learning (NAL) has long played a peripheral role to academic learning in secondary school education, especially the senior secondary, because of the predominantly examination-oriented culture. First implemented in 2009, Other Learning Experiences (OLE) is now a formal, compulsory component of the New Senior Secondary Curriculum (NSSC), requiring student participation in in five areas of NAL. It has brought hopes to advocates of Whole-person Development (WPD) that students could develop a balanced life and values and attitudes that could not be learnt in textbooks but through authentic learning experiences. To understand what, how and why the OLE has been implemented, the doctoral researcher has carried out a qualitative case study examining the implementation of OLE and the interplay of factors underlying the process at two schools. Based on a critical analysis of the interviews with the parties involved in OLE implementation, including the principals and teachers, alongside scrutiny of related documents, this study presents recommendations on how OLE and similar educational initiatives can be more effectively implemented. / Analyzed using a framework developed from Fullan (2001) and Leithwood (1981), results in this study indicate that the top-down OLE stipulated by the government has effectively initiated changes in NAL of senior secondary students in Hong Kong. OLE has achieved partial success mainly in terms of meeting time requirements for the five areas set by the Education Bureau (EDB). There has also been a rise in the status of NAL now required and structured as OLE, which heightened the willingness of the principals, teachers and students to inject time and other resources to OLE. However, measures in bolstering quality of OLE have yet to be intensified. Amid the many factors, cultural and societal perceptions of NAL as subsidiary to academic learning are the major factor that counteracts the praiseworthy effort made by schools and teachers. Local factors were the most influential among the three categories of factors, with factors of the teachers presenting the most favorable effects to the curriculum. Nevertheless, the large teachers’ workload incurred by NSSC implementation hindered further development of OLE. / From the findings of this study and Fullan’s (2001a) list, the researcher has proposed a list of 11 factors to be considered in Hong Kong-based education reform initiatives. There are many recommendations concerning how the government may facilitate OLE implementation in schools, for example, by allocating more resources to relieve teachers’ workload and by being more proactive in lobbying universities as well as promoting OLE to the public. Considerable patience is also suggested for the schools, the public and the government to allow gradual institutionalization of a new curriculum in schools. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Leung, Kwok Wai Masa. / Thesis (Ed.D) Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2014. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 293-313). / Abstracts also in Chinese.

Konzeption und Evaluation eines Planspiels unter besonderer Betrachtung von Lerneffekten und Planspiel-Akzeptanz

Zeiner-Fink, Susann 30 January 2023 (has links)
In der vorliegenden Dissertation werden die vielfältigen Einsatzmöglichkeiten von Planspielen in der beruflichen Bildung aufgezeigt. Zudem wird unter Berücksichtigung wissenschaftlicher und praktischer Anforderungen die Entwicklung eines Planspiels nach dem Design Science Research Ansatz vorgestellt. Um die Wirksamkeit von Planspielen sowohl kurzfristig als auch langfristig nachzuweisen, bedarf es empirischer Daten und differenzierter Aussagen, welche erfolgs- oder lernwirksame Faktoren in Planspielen implementiert sein müssen. Hierfür wurde ein Mixed Methods Untersuchungsdesign eingesetzt und durch Verwendung von Fragebögen, Storytelling- und Bild-Interviews untersucht, welche Einflussgrößen auf die Lerneffekte und die Akzeptanz von Planspielen wirken. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass in Abhängigkeit des Untersuchungszeitraumes und der Untersuchungspersonen unterschiedliche Einflussgrößen auf die Lerneffekte und die Akzeptanz wirken. Im Rahmen der Dissertation ist somit ein evaluiertes produktionsnahes Planspiel entstanden, dass die Elemente und Prozesse eines soziotechnischen Systems simuliert und in der beruflichen Bildung für verschiedene Lernende anwendbar ist. Die Arbeit bietet überdies einen Beitrag zur Überprüfung von Kausal- und Wirkungszusammenhängen in Planspielen. So werden die eingesetzten Methoden für die Planspielevaluation erweitert und die bisherigen Untersuchungen in der Planspielforschung ergänzt.:1 Einleitung 2 Stand der Wissenschaft und Technik 3 Iterative Entwicklung des Artefakts Planspiel 4 Evaluation der Einflussgrößen des Planspiels 5 Ergebnisse der empirischen Untersuchungen 6 Diskussion 7 Schlussbetrachtung Anlage A Ergänzendes Material zur theoretischen Fundierung Anlage B Ergänzendes Material zur iterativen Entwicklung und Evaluation Anlage C Ergänzendes Material der quantitativen Untersuchung Anlage D Ergänzendes Material zu den Storytelling-Interviews Anlage E Ergänzendes Material zu den Bild-Interviews Anlage F Zusammenfassende Übersichten / In this dissertation various application possibilities of business games in vocational education are shown. In addition, the development of a business game according to the Design Science Research approach is presented, considering scientific and practical requirements. In order to prove the effectiveness of business games in short-term as well as in long-term, empirical data and differentiated statements are needed, which success- or learning-effective aspects have to be implemented in business games. For this purpose, a mixed methods research design was employed using questionnaires, storytelling and picture interviews to examine which influencing variables have an effect on the learning effects and acceptance of business games. The results show that different variables influence the learning effects and the acceptance of business games depending on the time period and the participants. Within the framework of the dissertation, an evaluated production-related business game has been developed that simulates the elements and processes of a socio-technical system and can be used in vocational training for different learners. Moreover, the work offers a contribution to the assessment of causal and cause-effect relationships in business games. Thus, the methods used for business game evaluation are extended and previous studies in business game research are complemented.:1 Einleitung 2 Stand der Wissenschaft und Technik 3 Iterative Entwicklung des Artefakts Planspiel 4 Evaluation der Einflussgrößen des Planspiels 5 Ergebnisse der empirischen Untersuchungen 6 Diskussion 7 Schlussbetrachtung Anlage A Ergänzendes Material zur theoretischen Fundierung Anlage B Ergänzendes Material zur iterativen Entwicklung und Evaluation Anlage C Ergänzendes Material der quantitativen Untersuchung Anlage D Ergänzendes Material zu den Storytelling-Interviews Anlage E Ergänzendes Material zu den Bild-Interviews Anlage F Zusammenfassende Übersichten
