This study describes the process of Design and Testing of An Interactive Approach
based on improving the Effective Teaching of Kiswahili Reading Skills for Standard
One in Government Primary Schools. Specific objectives of the study were to;
investigate students' ability in reading Kiswahili language letters, words and
sentences; design and develop exemplary Kiswahili teachers guide and materials for
improving reading skills to pupils; evaluate the pedagogical skills used by teachers
in teaching reading skills and assess the reading ability of the pupils who have
learned through the designed lessons and materials compared to other pupils. The
study aimed at seeking a possible solution to the reading problem where a large
number of children are not able to read it fluently even though the language is
widely spoken across the country.
The study adopted a developmental research approach in which a quasi experimental
design was adopted, where pre-/post-intervention test were used in two schools. The
intervention school contained 52 pupils and 48 pupils in the control school. Both
quantitative and qualitative data were collected during study. The new approach to
teach reading focuses on getting learners learning to read.
Findings from the study indicated that there was alarming problem of children who
cannot read and write, teachers used the traditional approach in teaching reading in
lower grades which could not help them to assist their students to have skills in
reading and writing so as to improve their reading abilities. Also teachers and
students were found to be more interested in learning by the new tested approach
than the traditional approach. Therefore, the materials seemed to be useful in
schools. |
