1 INTRODUCTION TO THE MODULE
As part of this tutorial letter, we wish to inform you that Unisa has implemented a transformation charter
based on five pillars and eight dimensions. In response to this charter, we have also placed curriculum
transformation high on the agenda. For your information, curriculum transformation includes the
following pillars: student-centred scholarship, the pedagogical renewal of teaching and assessment
practices, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and the infusion of African epistemologies and
philosophies. These pillars and their principles will be integrated at both the programme and module
levels, as a phased-in approach. You will notice the implementation thereof in your modules, and we
encourage you to fully embrace these changes during your studies at Unisa.
Dear Student
We are pleased to have you as a student of Social Psychology and hope you will enjoy this subject.
Because our field of study is relevant to everyday life in so many ways, it is likely that you will find the
module particularly interesting and useful.
You will receive a number of tutorial letters during the year. A tutorial letter is our way of communicating
with you about teaching, learning and assessment.
Tutorial Letter 101 contains important information about the scheme of work, resources and assignments
for this module. We urge you to read it carefully and to keep it at hand when working through the study
material, preparing the assignment(s), preparing for the examination and addressing questions to your
lecturers.
Please read Tutorial Letter 301 in combination with Tutorial Letter 101 as it gives you an idea of
generally important information when studying at a distance and within a particular College.
In Tutorial Letter 101, you will find the assignments and assessment criteria as well as instructions on
the preparation and submission of the assignments. This tutorial letter also provides all the information
you need with regard to the prescribed study material and other resources and how to obtain it. Please
study this information carefully and make sure that you obtain the prescribed material as soon as
possible.
We have also included certain general and administrative information about this module. Please study
this section of the tutorial letter carefully.
Right from the start we would like to point out that you must read all the tutorial letters you receive
during the semester immediately and carefully, as they always contain important and, sometimes,
urgent information.
We hope that you will enjoy this module and wish you all the best!
