New assessment methods in business studies in the FET phase

Thesis (M. Ed. (Didatics)) / Assessment methods in Business Studies in the FET phase have had to change as a
result of the implementation of OBE and the NSC in South Africa. In order to
analyse how this has affected the education of learners, a case study, based on the
IEB was analysed.
Under the supervision of Umalusi, the IEB has developed new moderation systems
in order to quality assure SBA (School Based Assessment), represented by learners’
portfolios which constitute 25% of the final promotion mark for the NSC. The
guidelines and documentation for these moderation requirements are contained in
the IEB Business Studies SAG (Subject Assessment Guidelines). This document
forms the basis of the case study.The IEB, however, does not work in isolation and through their partnership with the
DoE the experience gained through implementing new assessment methods in
Business Studies as described in this study can be adapted for other subjects or
schools in the public sector.
