Thesis:
AN EXAMINATION OF PRACTICES AND EXPERIENCES OF TEACHER EDUCATORS IN THE SUPERVISION OF A NATIONAL
EARLY CHILDHOOD HOME BASED PROGRAMME

The study examined practices and experiences of teacher educators in the supervision of a National Early Childhood
Development Home Based Teacher Education Programme (NECDHBTEP). The Contextual Supervision (CS) was used
as the theoretical framework. The study found out that the home context, to some extent, influenced supervision of the
NECDHBTEP. It was established that teacher educators faced multiple challenges when supervising student teachers on the
Early Childhood Development (ECD) Home Based Programme. It had been recommended that primary teachers’ colleges
develop a specific supervision instrument for the effective home based ECD supervision of the (0-3 years category).

Thesis:
GIRLS HERE AND BOYS THERE: PARTICIPATORY VISUAL METHODOLOGY AS PEDAGOGY TO FACILITATE GENDER
SENSITIVE PRACTICES WITH PRE-SERVICE FOUNDATION PHASE TEACHERS

Foundation Phase classrooms are not impervious to unequal gender practices and despite policies that promote gender
equitable practices in schools and in society in general, most South African schools still engage in gendered practices
that perpetuate inequality and gender-based violence. This study makes a significant contribution to understanding how
participatory visual methodology can be used as an appropriate pedagogy within a Foundation Phase teacher education
programme. It presents the participants with a means of engaging with the issue of gender, while simultaneously gaining skills
required to be a critical and relevant teacher in the context of gender inequality and actualising gender sensitive practices.
