Sydafrikas och Sveriges läroplan i ett bedömningssystem : En jämförelse om de olika sätten att bedöma barn på - ett dilemma
Sammanfattning: This is a comparative study based on text analysis of South Africa's and Sweden's curriculum. The purpose of the study is to get an understanding and awareness of the meaning and content of the curricula concerning child assessment. Its focus is to find out about similarities and differences of the assessment and evaluation processes. My research questions are: • What do South Africa's and Sweden's curricula for learning outcomes the children are assessed on? • How is South Africa's and Sweden's assessment of children described individually and evaluation in the curriculum? • What similarities and differences are there in South Africa's and Sweden's curriculum on the assessment of children individually and evaluation on the preschool? The methods I use are qualitative text analysis and comparative analysis. I analyze and compare words and contents. My findings are that the assessment is about a way to see the children's development and learning. By having a conscious way of looking at children's interest and not to assess and judge individually which can lead to harming them. Instead, assess and judge as to benefiting the child to get support and can develop her/himself and her/his learning. Pedagogical documentation is used from the Swedish curriculum to see the children's interest and development. In South Africa notebook is used for documentation. The South African curriculum has more content with tips on development opportunities. If we compare the Swedish curriculum, there are learning outcomes where the goals are not as specified as the South African curriculum. This means that the Swedish curriculum has space for interpretation. In this study, we can gain an understanding of assessment in preschool and gain clarity of the dilemma that exists.
