ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In the study presented, two English curriculum documents were analysed, one from South Africa and the other from Lesotho. The analysis was focused on English first additional language curriculum documents for what is known as Grade 12 in South Africa and Form E in Lesotho. The two curricula are both informed by Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), with the concept of communicative competence, which is the ability to use the linguistic system effectively and appropriately, at its core. The two curricula are distinguished from each other as being locally developed (South Africa) and internationally developed (Lesotho) curriculum documents. Research contributions on the role that English plays in today‟s language learning and teaching context introduce the study . An overview is provided of the CLT appr oach and the essentials and difficulties perceived in CLT introduction in Africa and particularly Southern Africa. Jacobs and Farrell‟s (2003) evaluative framework for CLT is proposed as an indication of the extent to which CLT is evident in curricula. Ag ainst this background, the question arises of how CLT is realised in English first additional language curriculum documents for Grade 12 in South Africa and for Form E in Lesotho . In answering the question, a qualitative content analysis method that sets in interpretivist paradigm is employed for analysis of the curricula, and coding is applied using the evaluative framework proposed by Jacobs and Farrell (2003). The analysis attempts to evaluate the two English first additional language curriculum documents (curricula plans ). First, an exploration of the structures of the two curriculum documents was done. Second, the evaluation of the curricula against Jacobs and Farrell‟s (2003 :10 ) “ eight changes in language teaching and learning ” followed. Third, the comparison of the two curricula was carried out. Evaluation and comparison processes were carried out for the purpose of determining which of the two curricula best realises CLT. Reflecting on what is needed in the choice of English first additional language curricula, the conclusion is reached that (a) curricula need to be explicit in describing texts for language teaching, (b) they need to include oral and listening proficiency, and (c) a locally developed curriculum realises the CLT elements better than an internationally developed curriculum document. This means that learners‟ needs are be tter accommodated when local context and situations are in use. With this, learners bring their learning experiences as close as possible to their own real-life situations and thereby contribute towards language development.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie analiseer twee kurrikulumdokumente vir die onderrig van Engels: een Suid-Afrikaans en die ander van Lesotho. Die analise fokus op Engels as eerste addisionele taal kurrikula vir wat as Graad 12 bekend staan in Suid-Afrika en as Vorm E in Lesotho. Beide kurrikula is in die Kommunikatiewe Taalonderrigtradisie ontwikkel; ʼn tradisie wat vereis dat die taalstruktuur effektief in realistiese situasies gebruik word. Die twee kurrikula word onderskei deur die feit dat die Suid-Afrikaanse een plaaslik ontwikkel is en die Lesotho onderwyssisteem gebruik ʼn internasionaal - ontwikkelde kurrikulum, die Cambridge Overseas English Certificate. Die studie word ingelei deur ʼn bespreking oor die r ol wat Engels speel in die huidige leer- en onderrigkonteks. ʼn Oorsig word gegee van Kommunikatiewe Taalonderrig (KTO), gevolg deur ʼn bespreking van die elemente en probleme wat ervaar word met KTO in Afrika en in Suider- Afrika in die besonder. ʼn Raamwerk, voorgestel deur Jacobs en Farrell (2003) vir die evaluering van KTO, word voorgestel as ʼn aanduiding van die mate waartoe kurrikula die beginsels en praktyke van KTO insluit. Die probleem wat hierdie studie bestudeer is die mate waartoe KTO manifesteer in die Graad 12 Engels Eerste Addisionele Taal kurrikulum in Suid-Afrika en in die Vorm E kurrikulum, die Cambridge Overseas English Certificate, in Lesotho. Die navorsingsbenadering is interpretatief en kwalitatiewe inhoudsanalise word gebruik om die kurrikula te analiseer. Deur die raamwerk van Jacobs en Farrell (2003) te gebruik, word dit moontlik om die twee kurrikulum dokumente te analiseer en te vergelyk . As ʼn eerste stap word die struktuur van beide dokumente bespreek, gevolg deur ʼn evaluering van elke kurrikulum in terme van die agt veranderings in onderrig en leer wat veronderstel is om KTO te karakteriseer (Jacobs en Farrell 2003:10). Hierdie twee stappe is nodig om die finale vergelyking van die twee kurrikula te kan doen sodat die mate waartoe hulle KTO manifesteer, aangedui kan word. Hierdie analise kom tot die gevolgtrekking dat die Engels eerste addisionele taalkurrikulum in Lesotho (a) duideliker riglyne moet verskaf vir die aard van tekste wat vir Engels taalonderrig gebruik kan word, (b) dat hierdie kurrikulum mondelinge- en luistervaardighede moet insluit en (c) dat die plaaslik-ontwerpte, Suid-Afrikaanse kurrikulum beter rekenskap gee van KTO as die Cambridge Overseas English Certificate, die internasionaal-ontwikkelde dokument wat in Lesotho gebruik word. As gevolg van die vergelyking met die Jacobs en Farrell raamwerk, blyk dit dat leerders se behoeftes beter ondervang kan word wanneer plaaslike kontekste en situasies gebruik word omdat leerders op hulle eie leerervarings kan staatmaak om hulle taalvermoë te ontwikkel.

Full text, Ferda M.S. Department of Educational Sciences Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Cennet Engin DEMiR January 2010, 110 pages This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Ankara University Preparatory School program through the perspectives of instructors and students. To this end, the CIPP (context, input, process, and product) evaluation model developed by Stufflebeam (1971) was utilized. 406 students attending the preparatory school in the 2008-2009 academic year and 12 instructors teaching in the program participated in the study. The data were gathered through a self-reported student questionnaire and an interview schedule which was designed for the instructors. Besides, in order to obtain more detailed information about the preparatory school, written documents were examined. While the data based on the questionnaire were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics, content analysis was carried out to analyze the qualitative data. Multivariate Analysis of Variances with Pillai&rsquo
s Trace test was employed to investigate whether the significant differences among dependent variables across independent variables existed. Results of the study indicated that the program at Ankara University Preparatory School partially served for its purpose. The findings revealed that some improvements in the physical conditions, content, materials and assessment dimensions of the program were required to make the program more effective.

Full textTämä pro gradu esittelee Englannin asemaa globaalina kielenä ja sitä, kuinka se otetaan huomioon englannin opetuksessa Suomessa. Kieliä opetellaan, jotta niitä voisi käyttää ja tästä johtuen kielenkäyttäjän tarpeet ovat kielenopiskelun lähtökohta. Tämän takia myös käytettävyyden tulisi olla kielen muotoa tärkeämpää. Perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelman perusteissa 2014 korostuvat kulttuurinen monimuotoisuus ja englannin rooli maailman laajuisen viestinnän kielenä ja siinä tunnistetaan englannin maailman laajuinen asema ja erilaiset variantit. Nämä asiat täytyy siis ottaa myös englannin opetuksessa huomioon. Tämän pro gradun teoreettinen tausta käsittelee täten opetussuunnitelmaa 2014, englannin asemaa globaalina kielenä ja lisäksi postmetodia pedagogiikkaa, jonka voi nähdä hyödyllisenä välineenä opetussuunnitelman globaalia englantia koskevien tavoitteiden ja sisältöjen toteuttamisessa. Pro gradun tutkimusosio on toteutettu sähköisen kyselylomakkeen avulla. Kyselylomakkeeseen vastasi suomalaisia englannin opettajia. Kyselylomakkeen tarkoitus on vastata tutkimuskysymyksiin, joita ovat miten englannin opettajat toteuttavat edellä mainittuja opetussuunnitelman tavoitteita ja sisältöjä, mikä vaikuttaa niiden toteuttamiseen ja kuinka tärkeinä opettajat pitävät niitä? Vastaukset analysoidaan laadullisella aineistolähtöisellä sisällönanalyysillä. Analyysin tarkoitus on luokitella vastaukset, jotta niistä löydetään yhteneväisyyksiä, joiden perusteella voi tehdä johtopäätöksiä. Tutkimuksen keskeiset tulokset ovat: on tärkeää ottaa englannin globaali asema huomioon englannin opetuksessa koska se edistää monimuotoisuutta ja tasa-arvoa ja koska se korostuu myös opetussuunnitelmassa, joka on suomalaisen perusopetuksen lähtökohta. Lisäksi, suomalaiset englannin opettajat ovat yleisellä tasolla tietoisia englannin globaalista asemasta ja he ymmärtävät siihen liittyvä terminologiaa mutta käytännössä heidän näkökulmansa on melko anglo- ja Pohjois-Amerikka keskinen. Edellä mainittuja opetussuunnitelman tavoitteita ja sisältöjä opettajat pitävät tärkeinä, mutta ajanpuutteesta johtuen he joutuvat usein priorisoimaan opetuksen sisältöjä ja jättämään ne pois opetuksesta. Ajan puutteen takia opettajat myös tukeutuvat paljon valmiisiin oppimateriaaleihin tavoitteita ja sisältöjä toteuttaessaan. Lopulta keskeisin tulos ja johtopäätös on, että resurssien, joista suurimpana aika, puutteesta johtuen opetussuunnitelman globaalia englantia koskevia tavoitteita ja sisältöjä ei toteuteta kattavasti suomalaisessa englannin opetuksessa
