Question 1 (5 marks)
1. Define the following terms with EXAMPLES using your own words.
1.1 Formal language (5)
1.2 Teaching Didactics (5)
1.1 Formal language: A system of symbols, rules, and conventions used to create
well-defined messages. It's like a special code with precise instructions on how to put
things together. Here's an example:
• Formal Language: The grammar rules of a programming language like
Python. In Python, the instruction "print('Hello world!')" follows a specific
order (print function first, then quotation marks with the message, and finally a
closing parenthesis). This way, the computer understands exactly what you
want it to do.
1.2 Teaching Didactics: The art and science of effective teaching. It's like a toolbox
with different strategies teachers can use to help students learn. Here are some
examples of didactics in action:
• Teaching Didactics: Using pictures and diagrams to explain a concept
(visuals). This can help students who learn better by seeing things.
• Teaching Didactics: Having students work together on a project (hands-on
activities). This can help students learn by doing and improve collaboration
skills.
• Teaching Didactics: Providing different learning materials for students with
different needs (differentiated instruction). This recognizes that students learn
at their own pace and in their own way.
