HED4814 ASSIGNMENT 3 2026
DUE 11 AUGUST 2026

Scenario A Grade 8 learner at a South African public school is struggling academically.
The learner speaks isiZulu at home, but the school uses English as the Language of
Learning and Teaching (LOLT). The learner shows low participation in class, especially
in mathematics and science, and feels disconnected from the teaching style. The school
is overcrowded, and the learner has limited access to learning materials. Task

QUESTION 1: SCENARIO-BASED ANALYSIS OF LEARNER CHALLENGES

1. Cognitive and Emotional Factors
The Grade 8 learner faces big thinking and feeling challenges because of moving from
isiZulu at home to English at school. Piaget’s theory tells us that learners around age 13
to 14 are moving from concrete thinking to abstract thinking (Unit 2, p. 2). But when a
learner does not understand the language of teaching well, this thinking growth is
slowed down. Research shows that 81% of South African Grade 4 learners cannot read
properly, and this problem gets worse as they go to higher grades.
