, Question 1
1.1 Definition of Concepts
African curriculum
The goal of the curriculum reconstruction, according to Le Grange (2006),
ought to be to provide indigenous African knowledge systems their
appropriate place as equally valid means of knowing among the world's
variety of knowledge systems, so that global and local problems can be
solved more effectively. It should look into the sources of knowledge that
determine what is imposed on or recommended for Africa, as well as how
academics are involved in the universalization of the European
experience. It should inquire as to which modes of knowledge scholars
validate and promote, as well as others they dismiss or invalidate, and
why. In short, it has the potential to assist in the construction of new
African-centred development knowledge.
Comparative Education
It is the study of educational systems and issues related to social,
political, economic, cultural, ideological, and other topics in order to
comprehend the forces that underpin similarities and disparities in
education between countries. Comparative education is a social science
study that examines and evaluates distinct education system, such as
those found in different nations. Professionals in this field are focused on
developing evocative terminologies and norms for education around the
world, improving educational institutions, and creating an environment in
which the effectiveness and efficacy of educational programmes and
projects can be evaluated (Bray and Murray, 1995).
Mother-tongue teaching and learning
Mother tongue education, according to the Rutu Foundation (2022), is any
type of learning that uses language or dialects which pupils are most
acquainted with. This is generally the dialect that children use with their
families at home. The'mother tongue' does not seem to be the mother's
native tongue. At home, children can and frequently do understand more
than one or maybe two languages. They might speak one language with
their mother, the other with their father, and yet another with their
grandparents, for example.
