1.0 Introduction

1.1 Background InformationGeography is a subject offered at Advance level Secondary Education in Tanzania. The subject promotes the understanding of the earth’s physical, cultural, quantitative and economic components at national, regional and global contexts.

Future graduates of this subject shall be expected to serve the community as geologists, planners, economists, environmentalists, miners, land surveyors and fishermen/women. They shall also, serve as foresters, researchers, demographers, water technician/engineers, meteorologists, agriculturalists and field extension officers.

Geographers are required to provide opportunities to the community for solving natural and human made disasters and catastrophies.

The subject too promotes an understanding of the living and non-living part of the earth, climate, hydrosphere and their inter-relationships.

The teaching of the subject takes the human being as central in these relationships. Therefore, the pre-occupation of the subject is to minimize the human impact on the environment. The learners of the subject are thus expected to be conversant with what actions to take with the same intentions of sustainably co-existing with the environment.

2.0 Rationale for the Review.The Geography curriculum review has been dictated by two major factors; Global changes which include technological, social and economic have also influenced education at curriculum and subject level to be adjusted. For example, there has risen the need to accommodate cross-cutting issues which include globalization; ICT; Gender; environment and others. The second factor that dictated the review of this subject is the early 2008 national research outcomes. A couple of recommendations were made. Some of these recommendations necessitated the need to reduce the content by way of dropping some topics from the syllabus, making further synchronization of the Ordinary Level Syllabus with this level in order to address issues of curriculum overload, irrelevance and out datedness.

Such changes include the shift of regional integration topic to be accommodated in the General Studies Subject and collapse of the topic on environmental issues. The topic is now integrated in all other topics especial on focal studies or contexts. Other minor improvements include changing of titles. Water pollution and Conservation now reads Water Management; four topics have been created in the topic of Population and Development Soil conservation now reads Soil Management; In the study of water, a topic on Wet lands has been added.

3.0 Aims of Education in TanzaniaThe general aims of education in Tanzania are to:

7.0 Organization of Subject SyllabusThe Advanced Level Geography Syllabus has been organized into two parts. Part one presents the preliminary information which include an introduction, subject description, rationale for review of subject syllabus, the objectives of Education in Tanzania, aims and objectives of Secondary Education, General competencies for subject and general objectives for the subject. The syllabus content basing on level competencies, level objectives, content, matrix, topics, sub-topics, specific objectives, teaching and learning strategies, teaching and learning resources, assessment and number of allocated time are also components of part one . Part two forms the academic description to be covered in form V and form VI. The details of these components are presented below.

7.1 Class CompetenciesSpecific competences, referred to as level competences that have been stated before form five and form six content matrix respectively. It is expected that once a sub-topic has been taught and learnt, the student when assessed or observed, should show specific learning outcomes or abilities referred to as competences. This syllabus has five major competences to demonstrate for form V and VI respectively.

7.2 Class ObjectivesThe objectives reflected here are referred to as level objectives. Specific objectives are derived from these objectives. These items are important because these are the instructional areas from which teaching/learning strategies and impromptu assessment indicated in the left column of the syllabus are drawn.

7.3 Content MatrixThe content matrix is a format that entails six items namely topic/sub-topics; specific objectives; teaching learning strategies; teaching learning resources, assessment and number of periods.

7.3.1 Topics/Sub-topicsThese are areas which represent the content to be covered at the specific level. These items are presented in the first column of each page of the syllabus. The A-Level Syllabus has total of twelve topics to be covered. Each topic is divided to several sub-topics.

7.3.2 Specific ObjectivesSpecific objectives have been stated into simple form in order to enable the teaching of each sub topic. These come after the topic/subtopic column. Specific objectives connote actions a student should be able to do. There are not less than two specific objectives per subtopic. Most of the outcome based instruction is assessed basing on these objectives.

7.3.3 Teaching and Learning StrategiesThe teaching and learning strategies are presented in a single column. These are both methods and techniques which are supposed to be used by either the teacher or students in order to achieve after teaching and learning of a specific objective. The techniques which are used form a link thus referred to as strategies. The actions proposed are of higher level skills and demand students’ active participation. The teacher is not confined to the proposed strategies if the environment is not conducive. Teachers are allowed to use other participatory strategies according to the demand of the topic and situation.

7.3.4 Teaching/Learning ResourcesThe teaching/learning resources are enabling aids which facilitate the teaching and learning processes. Any teaching/learning resources have been indicated in the strategy resource for illustration of how they are supposed to be used.

The common resources suggested include textual, web based resource, library resource; models; subject kits; weather stations, experts; the environment and other actual things from nature. The teacher is advised to use contextualized teaching/learning resources. It is emphasized all texts should be both in ordinary script and Braille.

7.3.5 AssessmentEach respective specific objective has been provided with a clear statement which aims at guiding the teacher in assessing if each student has grasped and thereafter achieved intentions which are stipulated by specific objectives. Assessment area is indicated in the sixth column of the content matrix.

7.3.6 Number of PeriodsAn ideal instructional time has been shown on the seventh column of the content matrix. Instructional time show a total number of periods set per topic. The time has been carefully calculated to enable the teaching as well as carrying on assessment in form of monthly tests; midterm, terminal as well as annual examination.

There are 40 weeks devoted for teaching and learning practices. There are 194 days for teaching Geography with 400 periods per each class. The number of each period per week is 10 and each period has a total number of 40 minutes.

8.0 Instructional TimeEach topic in the syllabus has been allocated a number of periods which are considered adequate for its teaching.

9.0 Assessment in the subjectThe table below shows the type of assessment and the accompanied assessment measures to be used. The assessment measures listed in the table contributes to continuous and final assessments of the student achievement. The frequency for each assessment measure has been indicated with the weight in %. You are therefore strongly advised to apply a wide selection of assessment measures in order to develop students’ ability for the mastery of the subject matter during the teaching learning process.
