, Question 1 1.1 State whether the following statements are true or false: 1.1.1
Inaccessible and unsafe buildings, in many instances, present learners with
auditory impairments from having access to the learning centres. 1.1.2 An African
perspective of “ubuntu” involves an individual’s ability to treat others with
sensitivity, respect and dignity. 1.1.3 The Salamanca Statement (UNESCO 1994)
assumes that the academic curriculum and instruction should be flexible and
relevant so that a less accessible environment can be created. 1.1.4 Differentiation
of inclusive teaching strategies involves making modifications in the learning
environment, learning content and teaching methodologies as well as assessment.
1.1.5 Formative assessment is done at the beginning of the year, to establish a point
from which future measurements and predictions can be calculated. 1.1.6
Summative assessment is a continuous assessment process, often informal in
nature, designed to monitor and support learning progress. 1.1.7 Inclusion is about
creating equal opportunities for some learners to progress, in spite of their diverse
needs. 1.1.8 Inclusion in education is a basic human right and the foundation for a
more just and diverse society. 1.1.9 The SIAS defines barriers to learning as
“difficulties that arise within the education system as a whole”. 1.1.10 Negative and
discriminating attitudes are visible through labelling, which occurs when learners
with learning difficulties are placed in special schools. 1x10 = (10)
Sure, I'll state whether each of the statements is true or false:
1.1.1 True. Inaccessible and unsafe buildings can prevent learners with auditory
impairments from having access to learning centers.
1.1.2 True. An African perspective of "ubuntu" emphasizes treating others with sensitivity,
respect, and dignity.
1.1.3 False. The Salamanca Statement (UNESCO 1994) actually emphasizes that the
academic curriculum and instruction should be flexible and relevant to create a more
inclusive environment, not a less accessible one.
1.1.4 True. Differentiation of inclusive teaching strategies involves modifying the learning
environment, content, methodologies, and assessment to cater to the diverse needs of
learners.
1.1.5 False. Formative assessment is ongoing and continuous, providing feedback to
improve learning throughout the learning process. It is not done solely at the beginning of
the year.
1.1.6 False. Summative assessment is a formal evaluation conducted at the end of a
learning period to assess overall achievement. It is not continuous or informal in nature.
1.1.7 False. Inclusion is about creating equal opportunities for all learners to progress,
regardless of their diverse needs, not just some learners.
1.1.8 True. Inclusion in education is considered a basic human right and is essential for
building a more just and diverse society.
