1. Welcome
Welcome to IsiZulu First Additional Language 102. This module is designed to
introduce students to the study of isiZulu grammar, history and culture.
However, you will be expected to make an effort to vigorously engage in the
teaching and learning activities and attend lectures and presentations designed
to facilitate this module in order to benefit as much as you can. You are going
to be introduced to cultural and historical aspects of the IsiZulu First Additional
Language as well. The purpose of this study guide is to assist you through the
structure of the course, its contents and outcomes. In addition, the study guide
will provide you with the learning outcomes, assessment strategies and
assessment criteria.

Leaning outcomes are statements that describe significant and essentials

learning that students are expected to achieved, and can reliably demonstrate
at the end of a course or programme. In other words, learning outcomes
identify what the student will know and be able to do by the end of a course or
programme.

Assessment criteria
Once the outcomes of assessment have been determined it is necessary to
describe the criteria that will be used to judge whether the desired level of
performance have been achieved. Learning objectives consist of three parts:
• the student action;
• the content;
• the standard required to meet the objectives.

Assessment criteria relates to the third part of the objective, the standard of
performance. Criteria are developed by analysing the learning outcomes and
identifying the specific characteristics that contribute to the overall assignment.
These are the standards by which learning is judged.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL STUDENTS

This module was revised on: July 2023
Revised by: Dr. F.N. Gumede
 REGARDING PLAGIARISM

Please take note that the Durban University of Technology has a zero tolerance
approach to any form of plagiarism and therefore anyone found transgressing the
University’s plagiarism rule will be required to appear before the Student Disciplinary
Tribunal.
You are therefore urged to acquaint yourself fully with the rule in the Rule Book for
Students which was handed to you upon registration. Plagiarism arises when a
student submits any work for assessment that contains the thoughts, writings,
creativity, invention, etc. of another person which the student fails to acknowledge and
therefore passes off as their own work. For example, copying directly from any text,
including the internet, without using quotation marks and proper referencing, or
presenting someone else’s ideas using your own words but without proper referencing.
If you are in any doubt about the meaning of plagiarism, please ask for clarity from any
one of your lecturers.
The academic integrity of the Durban University of Technology relies on the worthiness
and honesty of its staff, students and graduates and consequently of the qualifications
it awards. You are therefore urged to embody this approach to the work you submit
for assessment.
