Teaching practice is an integral component of teacher training. It provides student teachers with experiences in the actual teaching and learning environment. This qualitative case study explored student teachers’ teaching practice experiences in selected primary schools in the Tshwane South District. Eight student teachers were purposively selected from four public primary schools in the Tshwane South District. This study was guided by self-determination theory of the interpretivist perspective. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and document analysis. Collected data was transcribed and arranged into codes and themes using the thematic data analysis method. The study established that regardless of the positive experiences of many student teachers, some experienced challenges such as late delivery of study material, delayed placement confirmation letters by the Teaching Practice Office, finding placement schools and support from module lecturers. It was also revealed that at school level, of the eight student teachers, six were welcomed and felt motivated, while the other two did not feel welcomed and were despondent. Some student teachers were also challenged by a lack of class management skills in overcrowded classrooms, completing teaching lessons on time, daily attendance register signatures by mentor teachers and supervisors’ support. Based on the findings, it is recommended that the university ensure that services such as study material delivery, attending to student queries and allocating supervisors are done on time. It is concluded that a committee that oversees the placement of student teachers between universities and schools should be established at each school.
Tlhahlo ya borutisi ke karolo ye bohlokwa ya tlhahlo ya baithuti ba go ithutela borutisi. E fa baithuti ba go ithutela borutisi maitemogelo a tikologo ya mmannete ya go ruta le go ithuta. Nyakisiso ye ya khwalithethifi e nyakisisitse maitemogelo a tlhahlo ya borutisi a baithuti ba go ithutela borutisi ka dikolong tsa praemari tse di kgethilwego ka Seleteng sa Borwa sa Tshwane. Baithuti ba seswai ba go ithutela borutisi ba kgethilwe ka maikemisetso go tswa dikolong tse nne tsa praemari tsa mmuso ka Seleteng sa Borwa sa Tshwane. Nyakisiso ye e be e hlahlwa ke teori ya go ikemela ya pono ya bohlathollo. Datha e kgobokeditswe ka dipoledisano tseo di sego tsa rulaganywa gabotse le tshekatsheko ya ditokomane. Datha ye e kgobokeditswego e ile ya ngwalwa le go rulaganywa ka dikhoutu le dikgwekgwe ka go somisa mokgwa wa tshekatsheko ya datha ya merero. Nyakisiso e hweditse gore ka ntle le maitemogelo a mabotse a baithuti ba bantsi ba go ithutela borutisi, ba bangwe ba itemogetse ditlhohlo tsa go swana le kabo ya morago ga nako ya didiriswa tsa thuto, mangwalo a tiisetso ya tiegiso ya go bewa ga baithuti tlhahlong ke Kantoro ya Tlhahlo ya Borutisi, go hwetsa dikolo tsa go bea baithuti tlhahlong le thekgo go tswa go bafahlosi ba dimotsulo. Go utolotswe gape gore maemong a sekolo, go baithuti ba seswai ba go ithutela borutisi, ba tshela ba bona ba amogetswe ebile ba ikwele ba na le tlhohleletso, mola ba bangwe ba babedi ba ikwele ba sa amogelwa ebile ba itlhobogile. Baithuti ba bangwe ba go ithutela borutisi gape ba ile ba itemogela tlhohlo ya go hloka mabokgoni a taolo ya diphaposi ka diphaposing tsa borutelo tseo di tletsego kudu, go fetsa dithuto tsa go ruta ka nako, go saena ga diretsistara letsatsi le letsatsi ke barutisi ba e lego baeletsi le thekgo ya baokamedi. Go ya ka dikutullo, go sisinywa gore yunibesithi e kgonthise gore ditirelo tsa go swana le kabo ya matheriale wa thuto, go sogana le dipotsiso tsa baithuti le go aba baokamedi di dirwa ka nako. Go phethwa ka gore komiti yeo e hlokomelago go bewa ga baithuti tlhahlong gare ga diyunibesithi le dikolo e swanetse go hlongwa sekolong se sengwe le se sengwe.
