The impact of using technology through cooperative learning on learners’ performance on grade 11 circle geometryJanuary 2019 (has links)
Magister Educationis - MEd / Euclidean geometry was recently re-introduced as a compulsory topic in the Mathematics
Curriculum for learners in the Further Education and Training (FET) band in 2012. The
diagnostic analysis reports on the National Senior Certificate (NSC) Mathematics Paper 2
examinations since 2014 has repeatedly expressed concern of the poor performance of leaners
in proof and reasoning items linked to circle geometry. Various efforts have been made to
examine the composition of the curriculum to find ways of motivating learners in the study of
circle geometry and enhancing their performance but not much has been realized. The use of
technology or cooperative learning approaches for the teaching of geometry is beneficial for
pedagogical purposes, particularly for improving learners’ performance in geometry. Hence,
this study investigated the impact of using technology through cooperative learning on
learners’ performance on grade circle 11 geometry. It was thus an attempt to focus on blending
these two teaching methods with an emphasis on the use of technology. The research took place
at a Khayelitsha school and the scope of technology was limited to using a mathematical
computer programme called Heymath.
This research was grounded on the cognitive level framework that is used by the Department
of Basic Education (DBE) in the setting of National Senior examination mathematics papers,
as well as the set of social constructivist views of mathematics teaching and learning. In the
case of the latter, both social constructivism and cognitive constructivism views were
considered and applied for the purposes of this study. Using a positivist paradigm, this
convergent parallel mixed methods study employed a quasi-empirical design, where the control
group consisted of a group 26 grade 11 learners who were comparable to the group of 27 grade
learners that made up the experimental group.

CAUSES OF POOR PERFORMANCE OF LEARNERS IN ENGLISH IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN LERIBELetompa, T.P. January 2014 (has links)
Published Article / This article reports the findings and results of the Masters study on the causes of
poor performance of learners in English in primary schools in Leribe district. A
literature study was conducted to explore and to identify the causes of poor
performance of learners in English in the literature. The findings of the study were
collected by means of in-depth individual interviews the manifestation of the
causes of poor performance of learners in English was investigated from the
participants. Based on interpretive theory employing qualitative research
approach, data collected and analysed from the individual interviews were
analysed as emerging and themes. The findings of the study repudiate the
argument that existence of the Education policy inevitably leads to sound
improvement of learners in English in primary schools and consequently quality
education improved.

The effect of basic education teacher's diploma graduates on the quality of education in selected primary schools in the Kunene region, NamibiaNambahu, Priskila 11 1900 (has links)
Acknowledging the various benefits that can be reaped from good quality education in schools, the primary aim of this study was to explore and investigate the effect of the BETD Graduates on the quality of education in primary schools, in Kunene region.
Seventeen primary school principals took part in the study. They completed a questionnaire and the data was analysed using a qualitative method. Four main categories were investigated: (i) socio-demographic information (ii) the implementation of the BETD skills (iii) job performance and (iv) organizational effectiveness.
This study suggests that there is a strong relationship between the type and quality of teacher education and its effect on the achievement and performances of learners in particular and the school in general. Therefore the quality of education in schools can be determined by the quality of the teachers on the ground. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (Education Management)
