Uchambuzi wa Maandiko ya Mwalimu Yatokanayo na Mtaala Juu ya Ufundishaji wa Somo la Kiswahili Nchini Tanzania
[Curricula for Teaching Kiswahili in Tanzania]
In: UtafitiIkisiri
Makala hii inachambua baadhi ya maandiko muhimu yatokanayo na mtaala kwa kutoa ufafanuzi wa kina juu ya dhana na vipengele mahususi vya maandiko hayo ambavyo mwalimu wa somo la Kiswahili hupaswa kuvizingatia katika uwasilishaji wa somo lake. Lengo la uchambuzi huu ni kuonesha athari za kutotumia vizuri maandiko hayo na umuhimu wake kwa walimu katika kufundishia somo la Kiswahili. Ufafanuzi umejumuisha maandiko ya aina tatu nayo ni muhtasari, azimio la kazi na andalio la somo. Uchambuzi huu unatokana na kuwepo kwa matumizi ya maandiko hayo isiyosahihi, walimu kutokutumia maandiko hayo kwa kigezo cha uhaba wa upatikanaji na ukosekanaji wa ufahamu wa matumizi ya maandiko hayo. Kutokana na sababu hizo na kwa kuwa lugha ya Kiswahili kimawanda asili ya matumizi yake ni Tanzania, ni muhimu kuwepo kwa andiko hili ili kumwezesha mwalimu wa somo la Kiswahili kutumia maandiko hayo kwa ufanisi na kuhimiza uandaaji wa maandiko hayo kwa idadi inayotosheleza ili kupunguza uhaba. Data za kuwezesha uandishi wa makala hii zimepatikana kwa njia ya mapitio ya maandiko na matini mbalimbali na kutafsiri rejea zilizoandikwa kwa lugha za kigeni hasa Kiingereza. Imebainika kupitia makala hii kuwa kuna athari zinazotokana na kutotumia maandiko hayo kwa walimu jambo ambalo limesababisha maandiko haya kutotumika ipasavyo.
Abstract
There are striking contradictions among education experts concerning basic principles and techniques of Kiswhaili language instruction in Tanzania. These contradicitons are illuminated here through an extensive analysis of syllabi, work schemes, and lesson plans that are in use nationally. The key teaching components of language instruction receiving in-depth attention here include: competency assessment techniques, set texts and topics, course objectives, teaching staff competency, standardized classroom activities and learning techniques. Apart from the prevailing inconsistencies in teaching methodology, Kiswahili teachers have an insufficient amount of material written and produced in Kiswahili about teaching Kiswahili and the language-learning process overall. The bulk of materials constituting the data collected for this study were written originally in English. Part of this project involved translating foreign materials into Kiswahili to respond pro-actively to this teacher-training deficit. Since Tananzia is the largest geographic region where Kiswahili is the lingua franca, it seems incontestably advantageous to reduce such inconsistencies, and to promote tools that will improve the training and quality of teaching and learning of Kiswahili. Towards this end, Kiswahili stakeholders should engage in research that expands the stock of existing curricula-related documents. Further, advocates should develop ways to promote Kiswahili as the mode of instruction for education in general.
