Abstracts in English, Xhosa and Zulu / The rationale behind this study was, to explore how unqualified natural science teachers in grade seven conduct practical work. Furthermore, the study explored an understanding of some of the experiences, beliefs and views of unqualified NS teachers. This was a qualitative study. Data was collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews. The three cases were interviewed and observed separately. This study was guided by main research question: How do unqualified grade seven natural science teachers facilitate practical work in the senior phase? Which was further unpacked into three sub-questions: How do unqualified NS teachers define practical work? What are the views, aims and objectives of unqualified NS teachers about practical work? How do unqualified NS teacher conduct practical work? The study revealed that in all three cases, practical work was conducted consecutively as poorly, outstandingly, and excellently. Moreover, an intensive professional pedagogical development is recommended for natural science teachers. / Isizathu emva kwesi sifundo sasiyihlolisise indlela abafundisi bezesayensi bezendalo abangafanelekanga ngayo kwiibakala ezisixhenxe ezenza umsebenzi osebenzayo. Ngaphezulu, uphando luhlolisise ukuqonda kwamanye amava, iinkolelo kunye neembono zabafundisi be-NS abangafanelekanga. Oku kwakufundwe ukufaneleka. Idatha yaqokelelwa kumagumbi okufundela kunye noonononongo olulungelelanisiweyo. Amatyala amathathu axoxwa ngumbutho kwaye athathwa ngokwahlukileyo. Olu pho nonongo lukhokelwa ngumbuzo ophambili wokuphanda: Ootitshala abangabalulekanga bakala be-sayensi bendalo abasixhenxe banceda njani umsebenzi osebenzayo kwisigaba esiphakamileyo? Yiyiphi enye eyayixhaswa kwimibandela engaphantsi kwemibuzo emithathu: Ootitshala abangenasigxina be-NS bachaza njani umsebenzi osebenzayo? Ziziphi iimbono, iinjongo kunye neenjongo zabafundisi be-NS abangafanelekanga malunga nomsebenzi osebenzayo? Umfundisi ongenagunyaziwe we-NS uqhuba njani umsebenzi osebenzayo? Uphononongo lubonakalise ukuba kuzo zonke iimeko ezintathu, umsebenzi osebenzayo wenziwa ngokulandelelanayo, ngokugqithiseleyo, nangokugqwesileyo. Ngaphezu koko, uphuhliso olunzulu lwezobugcisa lunconywa kubafundisi bezesayensi zendalo. / Isizathu esilandelayo kulolu cwaningo kwakuwukuhlolisisa ukuthi othisha bezesayensi engokwemvelo abangafaneleki yini ebangeni lesi-7 ukuqhuba umsebenzi osebenzayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lolu cwaningo luhlolisise ukuqonda okunye okuhlangenwe nakho, izinkolelo nokubukwa kwabafundisi be-NS abangafaneleki. Lokhu kwakuyi-study qualitative. Idatha yaqoqwa ngokusebenzisa ukuhlolwa kwamakilasi kanye nezingxoxo ezihleliwe. Amacala amathathu axoxwa futhi ahlonishwa ngokwehlukana. Lesi sifundo sasiqondiswa umbuzo oyinhloko wocwaningo: Abafundisi abangayifaneleki bangabafundi abayisikhombisa besayensi yemvelo benza kanjani umsebenzi osebenzayo esigabeni esiphakeme? Yikuphi okwakungeniswa phakathi kwemibuzo emithathu engaphansi: Abafundisi abangaqiniseki NS bachaza kanjani umsebenzi osebenzayo? Yiziphi imibono, izinhloso kanye nezinhloso ze-NS abangaqeqeshiwe mayelana nomsebenzi osebenzayo? Ngabe uthisha we-NS ongagunyaziwe uqhuba kanjani umsebenzi osebenzayo? Ucwaningo luveze ukuthi kuzo zonke izimo ezintathu, umsebenzi osebenzayo wenziwa ngokulandelana, ngokungafani, nangokugqamile. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuthuthukiswa okujulile kwezobuchwepheshe kunconywa othisha bezesayensi yemvelo. / Science and Technology Education / M. Ed. (Natural Sciences)
