Abstract

In this article I focus on an initiative to determine how a group of 7 purposefully recruited Grade 10 in-service life orientation teachers in the Dr Kenneth Kaunda district of the North West province conceptualise socio-environmental issues and aim to determine whether their teaching-learning practices are aligned with the expectations of the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement. A qualitative research design was used to generate data through semi-structured interviews. The data were analysed thematically. A critical finding was that a need exists to include a situated knowledge approach to real-life socio-environmental issues for the purpose of humanising life orientation for learners. With this article, I wish to contribute to a particular discourse with regard to real-life socio-environmental issues through humanising life orientation pedagogies through environmental education. The potential merits of such a transformative approach, which is grounded in a critical pedagogical paradigm, are discussed as well.

通过环境教育实现以人为本的生命教育

在本文中，我将重点关注一项倡议，以确定一组7人有目的地在西北省肯尼斯·卡翁达博士地区招募10年级在职生活指导教师如何概念化社会环境问题，并旨在确定他们的教与学实践是否符合课程和评估政策声明的期望。采用质性研究设计，通过半结构化访谈生成数据。对数据进行了专题分析。一个重要的发现是，有必要将一种情境知识方法纳入现实生活中的社会环境问题，以便为学习者提供人性化的生活取向。在这篇文章中，我希望通过环境教育将生命导向教学法人性化，从而为现实生活中的社会环境问题提供一种特殊的论述。这种基于批判性教学范式的变革方法的潜在优点也进行了讨论。

期刊介绍： The South African Journal of Education (SAJE) publishes original research articles reporting on research that fulfils the criteria of a generally accepted research paradigm; review articles, intended for the professional scientist and which critically evaluate the research done in a specific field in education; book reviews, i.e. concise evaluations of books that have recently appeared; and letters in which criticism is given of articles that appeared in this Journal. Indicate the relevance of the study for education research where the education system is characterised by transformation, and/or an emerging economy/development state, and/or scarce resources. Research articles of localised content, i.e. of interest only to specific areas or specialists and which would not appeal to the broader readership of the Journal, should preferably not be submitted for consideration by the Editorial Committee. Ethical considerations: A brief narrative account/description of ethical issues/aspects should be included in articles that report on empirical findings.
