This study examined factors shaping teachers' understanding, experience, and teaching about sexuality and HIV/AIDS in some schools in the Western Cape and Mpumalanga, South Africa. Through the use of in-depth, semi-structured interviews with teachers and participant classroom observations in a select number of primary and secondary schools in the Western Cape and Mpumalanga, the study addressed two pertinent questions relating to (a) the content and form of HIV/AIDS and sexuality discourses in school and, (b) what actually happens in the act of teaching when HIV/ AIDS and sexuality is the focus. It began by asking questions about who the teachers are and what it is about themselves that they bring into the classroom. Questions were raised too, about what happens in classrooms when teachers invoke the body in its physical and sexual form, a body usually absent in the public arena of the classroom. The study worked from the premise that what teachers do in the classroom is not neutral. 2014-10-06T12:12:13Z 2014-10-06T12:12:13Z 2006 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8210 eng application/pdf School of Education Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
