Lecturer Ada James-Almano has created and interactive online environment for her 3rd Third year Afrikaans students (TMA303). This online space promotes effective communication and lesson planning.

 

Lecturer ‘models the behaviour’: Creation of Lesson Plans

 

The lecturer shared the module guide, as well as the national and provincial language policies.

Furthermore, the lecturer modelled the behaviour by sharing lesson plan templates which students could review and use to structure their own lesson plans (i.e. for a specific Afrikaans topic).


Structured learning material


The lecturer makes use of the Course Resources eTool to structure the learning material, including documents (Word, Pdf files); and PowerPoint presentations.

**Students are able to view the resources without incurring any data costs provided they connect using the Open VPN.






Assessments


The lecturer has created Individual assignments for students via the Assignments eTool. These assignments are ‘inline and attachments’ type assessments. This enables students to write their answers in the textbox; or they are able to complete their assignments offline and attach their completed assignments.


Communication


The lecturer makes continuous use of the Announcements eTool to communicate with her students. The lecturer posts communications and details regarding lectures, exams and assessment that are due. Announcements notifications are linked to the students email accounts which ensures more immediate access via their mobile devices.
