, Dear Student
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.
1 INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the module on the Sociology of Education! We are sure you will find the content
interesting and rewarding. We hope that through studying different sociological theories and
their applications, you will be able to develop insight into the complex sociological and
educational processes in the South African education system.
Although we shall support you with your studies, the reality remains that to be successful in this
module, you will need to take responsibility for your own progress. You will receive a tutorial
letter (Tutorial Letter 101) at the beginning of the year. This tutorial letter will include important
information about teaching, learning and assessment. Read all the tutorial letters you receive
during the year and keep them at hand when engaging with the rest of the study material.
Please study the general and administrative information about this module carefully. Complete
all the assignments and submit them on time so that you can start studying for the examinations
as soon as possible.
Additional instructions on the preparation and submission of the assignments, assessment
criteria, information about the prescribed study material, additional e-resources and how and
where to find them, are available in this tutorial letter. Please study this information carefully and
make sure you purchase the very affordable prescribed book: Sociology of Education (SoE) as
soon as possible (See details in Section 4.3).
Because this is a blended module, you will use myUnisa to study and complete the learning
activities for this module. Visit the website for SED2601 on myUnisa frequently. The website for
your module is SED2601-22-Y1.
