Abstract

This dissertation presents the qualitative action research study of five lecturers who reflected on their teaching of the Physical Science modules using the Moodle learning management platform at a South African university. The study adopted a critical methodological paradigm. This study Physical Science modules using the Moodle learning management platform (LMP) at a South African university. As a result, reflective activity, one-on-one semi-structured interviews, and

artefacts were utilised for data generation in order to ensure the process of triangulation during the

-probability sampling methods, including purposive and needed lecturers with whom I was familiar and who were also accessible. The study used guided analysis to analyse generated data through the use of inductive and deductive reasoning/processes to conceive nine themes. Issues of dependability, confirmability, credibility, and transferability were ensured in this study in order to ensure trustworthiness. Further to this, ethical issues were also considered such as consent letters, anonymity, withdrawals, beneficence and others. Furthermore, the study was guided by three research question namely reflections on the use of Moodle in teaching Physical Science modules?; 2. How do lecturers reflect on the use of Moodle in the teaching of Physical Science modules?; and 3. Why reflect in particular ways on the use of Moodle when teaching Physical Science modules? As a result, the following research objectives were informing research questions respectively as follows: the Physical Science to teach Physical Science Moodle when teaching the Physical Science module. Consequently, the research question guided

the study to review the relevant literature on curriculum signals/principles based on three levels of

reflections, namely, informal, formal, and non-formal levels of reflections. As a result, this study vi adopted Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK), and it was then contextualised into Reflections, Resources, Procedures, And Module Signal theory (RRPAMS), which then yielded to the discovery of the new theory termed as Theory of Equilateral Moodle curricula which emerged from this study.

The major findings indicated that lecturers were driven by all levels of reflection such as informal,

formal, and non-formal reflection when teaching science modules using the Moodle learning management platform. The study confirmed that lecturers were highly operating at the level of informal reflection rather than that of formal and non-forma reflection. This was due to the fact that there was no online learning policy guiding teaching of modules on Moodle LMP in place given by the university. As a result, this lead to unbalanced curriculum signals (content, time,

character, platform, activities, justice, permission, resources, and assessment) and this had a

negative impact on the university throughput, such as produced graduates per annum. The studyquotesdbs_dbs3.pdfusesText_6
