QUESTION 1
The way we interpret the world around us is determined partly by our beliefs,
values and norms, but mostly by contextual influences. The educator’s
interpretation and implementation of a curriculum is also influenced by the
context. Choices regarding planning and designing a learning programme, the
inclusion of instructional strategies and the practical application are
embedded in knowledge and the understanding of the educational situation.
Influences ranging from the political, social and economic culture to the norms
and knowledge structures of educators affect teaching and learning. Taking
the above into consideration, critically discuss the following:
1.1 A socio-constructivist’s view (Vygotsky) of the impact of context on
curriculum implementation (7 marks). Do you agree with his view (1
mark)? Justify your answer (2 marks). (10)
Vygotsky's socio-constructivist theory emphasizes the importance of social
interaction and cultural context in learning and development. According to Vygotsky,
the way individuals interpret and understand the world is greatly influenced by the
social and cultural environment they are situated in. This includes the beliefs, values,
norms, and knowledge structures that exist within a particular context.
In the context of curriculum implementation, Vygotsky's theory suggests that
educators must consider the specific social and cultural factors that influence their
students' learning. This means considering their prior knowledge, cultural
background, language, and the social interactions they engage in both inside and
outside the classroom. By understanding these contextual influences, educators can
tailor their teaching strategies and instructional design to create a meaningful and
effective learning experience for their students.
