The module is aimed at equipping students to successfully present History as prescribed in the NCS and CAPS for History. Students will study the theoretical underpinning of historical writing, content of the syllabus and how to address it, as well as the requirements expected of learners qualifying for the FET-examinations in History. Students are expected to prepare teaching activities according to the requirements of the school syllabus to prepare them for their role as teachers of history. Students present lessons through micro-teaching and apply appropriate assessment and questioning; study the use of cartoons in questioning in this phase; apply cross-curriculation in lesson planning; set a Heritage assignment; plan and prepare for a History excursion and apply previously acquired communication skills in the teaching of History.

University of Pretoria Programme Qualification Mix (PQM) verification project
The higher education sector has undergone an extensive alignment to the Higher Education Qualification Sub-Framework (HEQF) across all institutions in South Africa. In order to comply with the HEQSF, all institutions are legally required to participate in a national initiative led by regulatory bodies such as the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET), the Council on Higher Education (CHE), and the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA). The University of Pretoria is presently engaged in an ongoing effort to align its qualifications and programmes with the HEQSF criteria. Current and prospective students should take note that changes to UP qualification and programme names, may occur as a result of the HEQSF initiative. Students are advised to contact their faculties if they have any questions.
