As a teacher-researcher, I have endeavoured to evaluate and reflect on the teaching of
Islamic Studies at Form V level. This Action Research investigated the effectiveness of
using Remedial Strategies as instructional methods to increase class participation in
Islamic Studies classes at Form V level, in a Private Secondary School, The Islamic
Cultural College, Port-Louis; in a State Secondary School, Port-Louis State Secondary
School, Colline Monneron, Port-Louis; and in a Profit-Making Institution, The Doha
Academy, Eau-Coulee, Curepipe.
Data was collected mainly from questionnaires sent to the students and analyzed. The
study also covers the findings and analysis from the questionnaires and some
recommendations to improve classroom practices to promote students’ participation in
Islamic Studies classes have been proposed.
Overall, this research aims at contributing to an enhanced learning experience for the
students of Islamic Studies and for me as a teacher-practitioner. The Remedial Strategies
imply a shift of onus from the teacher to the student. This transfer is what is envisaged
most by all contemporary thinkers in education because this is what guarantees concrete
and productive learning in the classroom. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M. A. (Islamic Studies)
