,INTRODUCTION
The declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic by the World Health
Organisation in 2020, led to the disruption of effective teaching and learning in all
schools across South Africa.
Many learners, across all grades, spent less time in class due to the phased-in
reopening of schools, as well as rotational attendance and alternative timetables
that were implemented across provinces, to comply with social distancing rules.
This led to severe teaching and learning time losses. Consequently, the majority of
schools were not able to complete all the relevant content prescribed in Grade 10-
12 in accordance with the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement.
In order to mitigate and intervene against the negative impact of COVID-19, as part
of the Recovery Learning Plan for Grades 10-12, the Department of Basic Education
(DBE) worked in collaboration with Subject Specialists from various Provincial
Education Departments (PEDs) to develop this Self-Study Guide for learners in
Grade 12.
The content in this study guide is critical towards laying a strong foundation to
improve your performance in this subject.
The main aims of this study guide is to:
• Assist learners to improve their performance, by revising and consolidating
their understanding of the topic;
• Close existing content gaps in this topic; and
• Improve and strengthen understanding of the content prescribed for this topic.
This study-guide is meant as a self-study guide for learners and therefore should
be used as a revision resource to consolidate learning at the end of a particular
topic taught in class.
Learners are encouraged to complete the exercises and activities to test their
understanding and to expose themselves to high quality assessment.
This study guide can also be used by study groups and peer learning groups, to
prepare for the final NSC examination in this subject.
