2014 Message to our Partner Schools
Dear Principal and Teachers
We would like to express our sincere thanks to you for so willingly assisting us with our school-based
programme for B.Ed. students.
This part of the programme is an integral aspect in the development of new teachers, as without the
experience and guidance provided by teachers in schools it would not be possible for the student teacher
to develop the knowledge, understanding, skills and values they will need to become truly professional
educators, competent classroom practitioners and life-long learners.
Students have always reported favourably on their school-based experiences and they have particularly
valued the support received from our partner schools.
We trust that the Work-integrated Learning experience will be an enriching and inspiring one for all
involved. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you need any clarification or additional information.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Lonnie King

REFLECTIVE PRACTICE
What is reflection?
Bolton (2010:13) said that Reflective practice is learning through examining what we think happened on
any occasion, and how we think others perceived the event and us, opening our practice to scrutiny by
others.
Improvement cannot take place unless we learn from experience. Failure to do this is resigning ourselves
to being prisoners to our past. Reflection-on-practice is an intentioned action; the intention is to improve
the quality of educational experiences through a rigorous reflection of the learning that has accrued as a
consequence of engaging reflective practices of one kind or another (Ghaye, 2011: 134)
Why do we need to reflect?
One of the benefits of reflection is its impact on professionalism through reflecting on our practice we
become more aware, more in control, more able to see our strengths and development needs. Through
reflection, we can begin to move from novice to expert. This movement involves the following stages:
Novice advanced beginner competent performer proficient expert.
It is this process, the questioning or self-questioning to reconstruct what happenedor to construct what
might happenthat enables the teacher to move from novice to expert.

WORK-INTEGRATED LEARNING PROGRAMME
This section seeks to present an overview of Work-Integrated Learning (WiL) and pertinent information on
its conduct in schools.
What is Work-integrated Learning?
WiL is a school-based learning in practiceexperience undertaken by prospective teachers, and forms an
essential component of the practical learning integral to all the teacher education programmes offered by
Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Universitys Faculty of Education.
Aims of WiL
The general aim of WiL is to introduce prospective teachers to teaching and its routines under the guidance
of qualified professionals to develop skills, attitudes and competencies in the profession. Some of the key
focus areas in the exercise include:
Fostering links between educational theory and practice of teaching; Developing student teachers ability to set relevant expectations for learners through a range of
teaching strategies appropriate to their age and ability;
Developing the ability to select and use appropriate teaching resources; Making student teachers aware of the complex nature of teaching and learning processes in the school
and its environments; and
Mentoring and assessing student teachers according to the requirements of their respective teachereducation programs.
Assessment of Work-integrated Learning
WIL shall be assessed mainly through classroom observation and document analysis; these activities are the
core elements of the WIL process. The importance of assessment is not only to ascertain if a student
teacher meets the required standards of the profession, but also to assist the student teacher to realise the
standards through supportive, informative and constructive input. Consequently, observation shall not be
undertaken for grading purposes only, however, post-observation conferencing shall be undertaken at all
times to explore the student teachers strengths and lapsesin teaching.

Classroom Observation
Given a wide range of areas of observation, a student teacher in action in class gives one first-hand
information and experience on the extent of development of various competencies expected of a teacher.The general thrust in observing a taught lesson is guided among others by the following considerations:
What relationships exist between the teacher and learners? Are learners learning anything worthwhile? Are the best pedagogic practices adopted and practised in teaching? How does the teacher continuously position her/himself in the teaching situation? Is the student teachers conduct consistent with the philosophy and purpose of Work-integrated
Learning?
The meaning of student teachers
As the designation student teachersuggests, these are unqualified prospective teachers undergoing pre-
service education. They work in schools under the guidance and supervision of qualified and experienced
teachers. While on WIL, student teachers are nonetheless registered and bona fidestudents of the NMMU.
The host schools play a complex custodial, supervisory and mentoring role, with students themselves
accountable to the university and their respective host schools in particular, and the teaching profession in
general.

NB:
Work-integrated learning will start on 11 February and end on 31 October 2014. Students will be at schools for four days a week according to the 2014 school calendar during Term
1, and will be at schools for fourdays a week according the 2014 school calendar for Terms 2 to 4.
2. Expectations
School-based experience is an opportunity for students to explore and learn from the experience of being
in a school as a teacher (always remembering that they are at the beginning of their teaching careers and
are still learning what it means to become a teacher). It is their entry point into the teaching fraternity and
the community of practice of FET.
We suggest that as far as possible students should be exposed to a whole range of experiences, and be
given opportunities to develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values required of a passionate and
critically engaged teacher. This is an apprenticeship experience for them. We hope that our students will
also be able to contribute something towards your school and, as such, schools can expect certainbehaviours and actions from our students.

To assist schools in providing a rich and safe environment in which students can gain these competencies
we have compiled a few guidelines to assist you in meeting the students expectations a s well as gaining as
much as you can from our students.
3. Reporting Lines
As in any school, the principal (or his/her designated deputies and HoDs) are the ultimate authority. In this
regard students are responsible to the school principal. This means that they must observe all aspects of
school policy and conduct themselves in a professional manner at all times. They fall within the policies
and rules governing any teacher at the schools, and the SACE Code of Conduct. So what does this mean?
Students must be punctual for school and class and extra-mural activities, they must dress according to the norms for staff at the school, and they must be thoroughly prepared for all activities in which they are expected to take part.
4. B. Ed. Course Requirements
4.1 Attendance
Students must attend their school on the designated days. As far as possible, students should be fully
involved in the functioning of the school for 15 hours a week. We see this as including, but not limited to:
attending assemblies, teaching classes, observing lessons, supervising classes and extra mural activities.The 15 hours of work per week should be regarded as part of the B Ed programme and students must not
be remunerated for this. Whilst at school, students should have time to do some university work.
It does sometimes happen that schools might want (need) the student to perform additional duties and
when negotiating this with students please ensure that the students do not compromise their academic
responsibilities and the attendance requirements of the B. Ed. programme. We suggest that you consider
remunerating the students for any long term additional responsibilities that you negotiate with them.
4.2 Students and school activities
Students should be available to assist with the schools extra-mural (e.g. after care, sport, music, etc.)
programme during the school-based teaching periods. Students are expected to do at least one summer
sport and one winter sport and or cultural activities. It should be borne in mind that many students have to
work in order to pay for their university course, and several of them are involved in sports coaching
arrangements with various schools, as well as other activities.
4.3 Students and School Policy
Students could sometimes be called upon to give teaching or administrative assistance to teachers on an ad
hocbasis, but not to take over the work of teachers who are away from school for several days at a time.
Please guard against the student becoming the full-time teacher, in other words taking the place of absentstaff or filling vacant posts on a long term (more than two days) basis. This is both unfair to the student and
to the learners.

Students must observe all aspects of school policy and conduct themselves in a professional manner at all
times. Dress code is in accordance with the schools requirements and the appearance of students should
be neat and professional at all times. Students are responsible to the principal of the school and as such
must follow all school policies and rules as if they were a staff member.
In order to pass his/her WiL module, the student must meet the attendance as well as academic
requirementsfailure to meet either may lead to the student repeating WIL the following year.
Students ought not to take for granted the availability of duplicating and photocopying facilities or the use
of other equipment, and should remember that they are guestsof the school. They should therefore take
care not to abuse any privileges offered by the school.
Should students be required, or opt, to accompany a class on an excursion of one or more days, they must
include a record of the relevant activities and reflect on the value of the excursion. If students do notparticipate in an excursion involving their class group, they should be accommodated in another class for
the duration of the excursion.
5. WiL Assessment
5.1 Lecturer Assessment
Lecturers from NMMU will visit students at their schools for the purposes of both formative and summative
assessment. During such visits, it is the responsibility of the student to provide the lecturer with the
necessary Assessment Form. This form is available from Ms Delene Botha on South Campus, Ms MelonyOliphant in George, as well as in this guide. The WIL coordinator may visit the school from time to time to
strengthen the partnership with the school.
5.2 Mentor Teacher Assessment
Mentor Teachers are required to give a percentage mark for the lessons they evaluate, as this mark is
needed for assessment purposes. Mentor Teachers assessments and comments will be taken into
consideration when the students final mark is determined. It is the individual students responsibility to
place the original lesson report of each mentor teacher assessment in their WIL file. Should a student
neglect to do this, it could negatively influence the students progress. The student will provide the teacher
with the Assessment Form. This form is available from Ms Delene Botha on South Campus, Ms Melony
Oliphant in George, as well as in this guide.
6. WiL Portfolio
Students must keep a portfolio (preferably an A4 lever-arch file) for WIL. Alternatively, students are
encouraged to maintain an e-Portfolio, should their circumstances permit and in consultation with the
method lecturer. This will serve as a record of activities and observations both inside and outside the
classroom. It is of the utmost importance to keep this portfolio up to date from the very beginning of each
block session. The completed portfolio is to be handed in / submitted on line on a pre-determined date setby the WIL coordinator.

The following information should be included in the journal and must be sequenced as below:
Situational analysis. This includes the schools locality, the kind of community it serves, l earnerenrolment, division into class grades, the structure of the teaching staff, the physical infrastructure
of the school and the facilities it offers. Any other relevant or interesting features about the school,
its history, its projects and activities should also be included. This must be completed before the
first lecturer assessment.
Attendance register A neat copy of all lessons taught for both assessment and non-assessment purposes. This
comprises:
o A detailed lesson plan for each formally assessed lesson, including worksheets or otherresources used in the lesson, and
o A less detailed plan for all non-assessed lessons. Self-reflectionson assessed as well as non-assessed lessons. Points of focus could be, inter alia,
o the extent to which planned outcomes were achieved,o whether appropriate strategies were employed,o what factors facilitated or impeded learning activities, ando whether anything new or unexpected arose in the course of the lesson.
The above plays an important role in expressing the developmental process that should occur in school-
based teaching experience. In other words, the journal should not merely record the number and variety of
lessons given, but also create a picture of the students experience as a whole.
It should be borne in mind that appraising ones own efforts is an important professional developmental
activity, and that reflecting upon the various aspects of ones performance can enhance ones
understanding of the teaching and learning processes and interactions in the classroom.
Once the journals have been handed in, the students must attend school until 31 October 2014. If this is
not adhered to, the student will be allocated an FC (studies not yet completed) as a mark.
The Faculty of Education wishes all B.Ed. students and their respective schools a
worthwhile and enjoyable association, and trusts that the students will avail themselves of every
opportunity to grow professionally and realise their individual potential.

Evaluations and due dates
Total mark:
NMMU lecturers evaluations only (x4) 60%
School educator/mentor (x8) 40%
Non-evaluated lessons:
Minimum additional lessons (non-evaluated) to be taught:
1 lesson per day (44 per semester22 per method specialisation) A register should be signed (see Appendix F) Abridged lesson plansof these lessons should be provided in your portfolio (sample outline given
APPENDIX C)
Evaluations and due dates:
Each student has to arrange for four (4) Lecturer (NMMU Mentor) lesson evaluations (one per term) during
the year. A minimum of one assessed lesson per major per semester should be assessed. No lecturer will
visit a student more than once during the term for summative assessment purposes, but may visit the
student more regularly for formative assessment purposes. Lesson evaluations should be done in the
required terms and will be checked for the date of evaluation. It is important to plan ahead and make
arrangements with the individual mentors in good time. If the student fails to meet this criterion without
prior arrangement, he/she will receive zero for the lesson and he/she may then have to repeat the module.
These evaluations will be spread throughout the year, as shown below:
