WHO? (Situation analysis)

The teacher:

Miss Nqobile Ndaba, is an education student in the University of Johannesburg,


currently enrolling in third year of study. I major in English and ICT School Support
which is associated with Computer Applications Technology (CAT) on a school level.
I am friendly which reckon that I am easily approachable by learners and colleagues.
I enjoy spending time in the classroom observing the environment the leaners are
studying in, witness how they engage with their teachers, preferential of the teaching
methods they find interesting as well as engage with & assist them to improve in their
studies. My native language is SiSwati, but I am also able to speak, read & write
assured English, IsiZulu, IsiXhosa and Sotho.

The learners:

The total number of learners at Sedaven High school is less than a hundred. However,
the total number of learners in the grade 12 classroom doing the CAT subject is eight,
which is five girls and three boys. The social status of these learners is well-established
because they pay huge amount of fees for the education they receive in the school.
Two of them reside in the school dormitories, five of them are using a scholar transport
and one is using own vehicle to & from the school. This means they are barely late for
their classes because they do not live far from the school. They communicate in
English as both the school medium language and home language which makes it
constructive to converse with and teach them in a language they all fluently grasp.
Additionally, two of these learners do not originate in Heidelberg, one is from DRC and
the other from Malawi (the dorm borders). One girl wears spectacle to aid her sight.

WHERE? (Still the situation context continued, includes the location and
facilities related)

The lesson will take place at Sedaven High school in an out-skirted area in Heidelberg,
Gauteng. Precisely, the accurate setting for this lesson is the Computer Laboratory
where each learner is assigned to own computer to practice/work on. The lab is
enhancing conducive learning because it has air-conditioners during this hot-weather
season. The laboratory is located upstairs, a few steps away from other classes which
is ideal enough to work peacefully without noise disturbance from neighbouring
classrooms where other lessons are occurring.

WHEN? (Situation analysis…focused on time, and date allocation)

The lesson will take place on day, Wednesday, the 7th of September 2022. The
duration of this lesson is 40 minutes; therefore, it will occur in the second period in the
morning at 08h00 – 08h40 during the first CAT period. The learners are expected to
be in the computer laboratory at least three minutes before the lesson commences.

• Teaching strategies legible for this lesson are:


➢ Direct instruction (oral presenting) – allows for question and answer
➢ Lab work
➢ Practice
➢ Demonstration

➢ Databases consist of four


components that work together as
one unit.
The components are the following:
➢ Table: The table is used to place
all necessary information in it.
From the table content a person
can access information as
requires.

➢ Queries: Queries are used when


a person only wants to select
specific information on the data
that is placed inside the table.

➢ Reports: Reports are used when


a person wants to display certain
information in a professional
manner.

➢ Form: A form is created for a


person to enter the necessary
data; this data will then be written
to the table created in the
database.

LIST OF THE TEACHING FORMS OF ASSESSMENTS: (How are the learners
going to be assessed in the lesson)

APPROACH HOW WILL IT BE ASSESSED


Diagnostic: Assesses the learner’s strengths, weaknesses, knowledge, and skills prior the actual
lesson. This will happen when the teacher asks the learners to give their existing knowledge about
what they already know about Microsoft Access or Database.
Baseline: Assessment that measures the learner’s abilities and potential. This will occur in the
lesson during the engagement phase, the teacher will monitor each learner to practice on the sheets
they are working on in class.
Oral: It is the direct assessment of the learner’s outcomes by questioning them, this will take place
throughout the lesson.

The type of assessment tools that will occur in this lesson will be:

➢ Observation
➢ Questioning

SUMMARY AND INTERGRATION: (How will the lesson be concluded)

BARRIERS THAT MAY HINDER THE LESSON IDENTIFIED:


Physical (Mobility)
Psychological (Depression, anxiety, stress etc)
Socio-economic (poverty, unemployment, affordability and so on)
Neurological (ADHD, epilepsy, spelling, reading, sight, writing, language, speech
etc)

EXTENDED OPPORTUNNITIES FOR LEARNERS FACING DIFFICULTIES:

• Neurological: Learners with different learning disorders can ask for help from
their educators. In this lesson, there is only one learner that has an impaired
vision, so I can always ask the learner to be seated wherever she is comfortable
in the laboratory, in an angle where she can get a clearer vision of what is
demonstrated on the projector’s screen. To be precisely inclusive, I make use
of bright coloured fonts on dark- backgrounded colour for my slides which is
appropriate to

• Psychological: For psychological barriers, the school is an Adventist school,


they practice their values daily like praying every morning before lessons.
Additionally, the school has a pastor for the learner’s psychological issues, they
can always make consultations with the pastor for counselling on specific
issues they encounter. This has however, alarmed the teachers to pay close
attention to their learners in class who may indicate such factors as anxiety,
depression and so forth. Teachers have taken it with them that if ever they can
no longer offer the right help for a learner’s psychological matter, they search
and recommend specialists who can offer them appropriate help in the
education department.

TEACHER’S REFLETION

• After this lesson has taken place, I realised that it is important to make
impressive introductions and conclusions in the lesson to get the learners’
attention and keep track of their concentration throughout the lesson.
• Moreover, the engagement of learners seemed to improve the lesson as they
gave examples of other scenarios Database is useful and their knowledge of
Database is excellent because they took leads in creating their queries and
reports.
• Good thing is that they asked questions to contexts they did not understand in
the revision, therefore, the lesson was fairly conducted.
