QUESTIONS & ANSWERS



WRITTEN BY SYDNEY MUKWANA

, QUESTION 1

(8)

- Decolonization of the curriculum to include African perspectives and knowledge

- Incorporating African values such as ubuntu and communality into teaching and

Letseka, 2022, p. 17). Additionally, incorporating African values such as respect,
empathy, and reciprocity can foster a more inclusive and compassionate learning
environment (Higgs & Letseka, 2022, p. 16). As noted on page 16, "Communality
