PRESCRBED BOOK: Please consult your practical teaching prescribed book (see tutorial letter 101)
before attempting to complete this portfolio. In chapter 1 there is an overview of what you can expect
from your practical teaching experience. As we had complaints from schools about the behaviour of
some of our students, we want you to read chapter 2 very carefully so that you are aware of the level of
professional conduct expected of you. In chapter 3 we want to prepare you for the context of diverse
schools and your role in facilitating this in the classroom. Chapter 4 gives you comprehensive
guidelines on lesson preparation and presentation and is an additional resource you can consult in this
regard.
As this practical teaching period focusses on co-teaching chapter 5 is probably the most important
chapter to help you prepare for this school experience. Chapter 6 deals with reflective teaching and we
hope you will gain the knowledge, skills and attitudes from it on your journey to become a reflective
practitioner. All matters pertaining to ICT and its uses and inclusion in your teaching practice are dealt
2
, TPS2602/103
with in chapter 7 and you are advised to try these out in a safe environment during your teaching
practice.
When you have to plan assessments first read chapter 8 on assessments. You will also find useful
information on classroom observations n chapter 9.
NOTE: Keep your prescribed book, as you will also be able to consult it when doing practical teaching
III and IV in the coming years.
PLAGIARISM INFORMATION
Plagiarism is considered to be a serious form of academic misconduct and is treated as such by the University of
Johannesburg. Academic honesty and integrity are therefore expected of students in this module. Plagiarism
means that the ideas, writings, works or inventions of others are represented as one’s own. In order to avoid
plagiarism, a scholar MUST acknowledge the author or the source of any information. However, it is not sufficient
to acknowledge the source – if the exact words from the source are used by the scholar, this must be indicated in
the text using quotation marks. It is further incumbent on the scholar to keep accurate records of sources of
information and use referencing techniques to avoid plagiarism. Plagiarism is considered immoral, unethical and
illegal. The University’s Policy on plagiarism will be uploaded on ULink for you in order to promote the
understanding and prevention of plagiarism. Furthermore, the concept of plagiarism will be discussed in the
contact sessions. In the event of plagiarism, a mark of zero will be given.
STUDENT DECLARATION
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA. COLLEGE OF EDUCATION
DEPARTMENT OF CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTIONAL STUDIES
Should be completed and submitted by ALL STUDENTS
The Department of Curriculum and Instructional Studies places specific emphasis on integrity and ethical
behaviour with regard to the preparation of all written work to be submitted for academic evaluation. Although
academic personnel will provide you with information regarding reference techniques as well as ways to avoid
plagiarism, you also have a responsibility to fulfil in this regard. Should you at any time feel unsure about the
requirements, you must consult the lecturer concerned before you submit any written work.
You are guilty of plagiarism when you extract information from a book, article or web page without acknowledging
the source and pretend that it is your own work. In truth, you are stealing someone else’s property. This doesn’t
only apply to cases where you quote verbatim, but also when you present someone else’s work in a somewhat
amended format (paraphrase), or even when you use someone else’s deliberation without the necessary
acknowledgement. You are not allowed to use another student’s previous work. You are furthermore not allowed
to let anyone copy or use your work with the intention of presenting it as his/her own.
Students who are guilty of plagiarism will forfeit all credit for the work concerned. In addition, the matter can also
be referred to the Disciplinary Committee for a ruling to be made. Plagiarism is considered a serious violation of
the University’s regulations and may lead to suspension from the University. For the period that you are a student
at the Department of Curriculum and Instructional Studies, , the under-mentioned declaration must
accompany all written work to be submitted. No written work will be accepted unless the declaration has been
completed and attached.
