- Description
- M.Ed., Schooling in South Africa has been influenced to a large extent by socio-economic and political factors which resulted in a wide variety of schooling systems with vastly differing frameworks and standards. This coupled with the high failure rate of South African students in the 1995 matriculation examination as reported in The Star reflects the need to critically examine the effectiveness of the teaching programme (Swart and Mothibeli, 1995: 1). The emotive responses discussed above immediately poses several problems which may be summarised by means of the following questions: What is teacher competence and how is it managed ? What is the essence of effectiveness as an aspect of teacher competency? Which components are associated with effectiveness in the teaching and learning environment? Which teaching behaviours are representative of effectiveness? To what extent can effectiveness be used to enhance teacher competence? Having identified problems related to teacher competence the aims of the research will be established. GENERAL AIM To investigate the components of teacher competence and how these aspects can enhance teacher effectiveness.1.3.2 GROUP AIM To investigate the components of effectiveness and how this can enhance teacher competence. 1.3.3 SPECIFIC AIM To determine the contribution of teaching strategies towards improving effectiveness in the teaching and learning situation; To obtain teacher opinion as to the extent that teaching strategies enhances effectiveness; and Devise a possible strategy whereby teaching strategies can support effectiveness and enhance teacher competence. To achieve the above aims, the following research methodology will be used.
