In this qualitative study, the phenomenon of large class teaching in South African
secondary schools is investigated. It was concluded that since large classes will
be a feature of the South African teaching context for many years to come due to
financial constraints, educators and educational planners should explore and
implement coping strategies instead of becoming demoralised by the situation.
The study provides several instructional guidelines for implementation in large
classes in the South African context. The focus of these guidelines is on large
class management and effective teaching in large classes. The possibilities of
strategies such as whole group instruction, cooperative learning, peer teaching,
groupwork and the proper organisation of classroom space are investigated. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (Didactics)
