Community engagements and History teaching in general
Home » Community engagements and History teaching in general
In South Africa it is hardly thinkable that any historian as researcher will never engage with education in some form. To practice what has been researched is part and parcel of one’s working agreement even though, in my case, I have originally been appointed as a researcher of History. four years in the FET educational environment in the 1980’s certainly contributed to my natural obligation to also make practical my research in the teaching environment. So I have been involved in the South African Society for History Teaching since 1992 up to the present. I am honoured to currently fill the position as SASHT Chairperson up to 2017 when a new Executive Board will be elected.
For the sake of the SASHT to be visibly internationally I have also engaged internationally with the International Society of History Didactics (ISD) from 2008. I was approached to be a member of the ISHD Advisory Board (Research Committee vice Chair) from 2010. In 2015 I have been nominated and elected to serve as member of the ISHD General Board until 2017.
Upon invitation I have also reviewed the history of History teaching in South Africa in the South African academy of science’s annual Hertzog Memorial lecture on 21 September 2011.
Prontuit 16 Julie 2018: Segment 1: Verpligte geskiedenis
Angie Motshekga, die minister van basiese onderwys, het onlangs aangekondig geskiedenis gaan as ‘n verpligte vak, tot matriek, geïmplimenteer word. Die beoogde datum hiervoor is 2023. Historici en onderwyskundiges is verdeeld hieroor. Is dit moontlik om in ‘n diverse land soos Suid-Afrika, almal se geskiedenis, gebalanseerd, in ‘n kirrukulum, saam te vat? Die Prontuit-span het met ‘n paar kundiges gaan gesels.
Prontuit 16 Julie 2018: Segment 2: Verpligte geskiedenis
In 2015 het ‘n ministeriële taakspan begin met ‘n ondersoek oor hoe om geskiedenis as ‘n verpligte vak vir leerlinge tot graad 12 te implimenteer. Die taakspan se bevindinge is onlangs bekend gemaak, maar talle akademici en onderwyskundiges het hul bedenkinge oor dié plan uitgespreek.
Prontuit 16 Julie 2018: Segment 3: Verpligte geskiedenis
Is geskiedenis as verpligte vak tot matriek ‘n wyse ding? Maak die huidige regering dieselfde fout as die NP-regering destyds, wat betref geskiedenis as skoolvak? Die Prontuit-span het by kenners gaan kers opsteek.
