M.Cur. (Professional Nursing) / The purpose of this study is to describe the guidelines for creating a cultural sensitive learning context. In present- day South Africa the learning accompanist is faced with the challenge to create a didactic situation which accommodates the cultural diversity of students. In the dynamic interactive relationship between the learning accompanist and the student, the student has the right to be treated with respect and human dignity. This right can only be respected if the learning accompaniment takes place from a cultural- sensitive perspective. The paradigmatic perspective that guides this research is described by means of metatheoretlcal, theoretical and methodological assumptions. The Nursing Theory for the Whole Person was used as meta- theoretical assumption. the theoretical assumptions were set from the Nursing Theory for the Whole Person. the U Model vir begeleide selfstudie ..

The methodological assumptions of the study are based on Botes" research model (1992) implying a functional approach to practice of science. The experience of the learning accompanists and students in a multicultural learning context was explored and supported by literature. From this data statements were generated indiVidually for phase I and phase II of the research. Eight statements were generated from each phase. In chapter four the conceptual framework is described from concepts of phases I and II and relevant national and international literature. With the description of the conceptual framework main concepts and related concepts were determined analytically. A total of nineteen statements were generated from the main and related concepts. A total of thirty five statements were generated from phases I and II and the conceptual framework. The guidelines for creating a cultural- sensitive didactic situation were inferred by means of deductive and inductive reasoning from these statements. The guidelines focus on the actions a learning accompanist should carry out within a multicultural didactic situation in order to carry create a cultural- sensitive didactic situation. The unique contribution of this research arises from the description of a multicultural didactic situation of nursing within the constructivist learning perspective.
