It takes into account the new structure of the School Curriculum. It is an aspect of both the Educational Reform and Curriculum implementation. It attempts to meet the requirements of the Reform. One other thing which is significant in the syllabus is the provision of carefully planned and sequenced topics, sub-topics, outcomes and content. The subject- matter covering knowledge, skills and values is blended in an integrated approach. The strongest point about this syllabus is that learning experiences start from KNOWN to UNKNOWN. The learner, therefore, is first well introduced to THINGS around him/her. In this way the learner interacts with, and experiences both the immediate and distant communities and environments, all of which centre around local, regional, Africa and global context. These specific outcomes provide the bases for achieving the aims of basic knowledge, skills, methods and strategies such as collecting data, organisation of materials and interpretation. Above all, it aims at inculcating values such as social interaction, decision making. To achieve all these, teaching/learning processes will require practicals, dramatisations, projects and field visits. The syllabus focuses on the ability to acquire knowledge, skills and values needed to develop positive and desirable attitudes; the potential to tackle challenges posed by political, cultural, social and economic needs and factors. In this way, the syllabus contributes to the TOTAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE INDIVIDUAL, THE COMMUNITY AND SOCIETY BOTH IN THE IMMEDIATE AND DISTANT FUTURE.

It does not denote a political school of thought, a philosophy, a doctrine or a form of organisation. It only refers to this new learning area on human relationships and behaviour. It is an inter-disciplinary programme with a contemporary orientation incorporating some aspects of Civic Education, Geography and History that were previously taught as separate subjects in the former curriculum. Education in Zambia as well as elsewhere is deemed to be the vehicle through which a morally, democratic learner should be developed. Thus, Integrated Social Science is expected to be the mirror through which the Zambian society should see itself in its quest and dedication to promote and perpetuate its social skills, beliefs, values and traditions. Some educators believe that some subjects such as mathematics, natural sciences and languages are more important and intellectually challenging than others like History and Geography. While no one can deny the fact that scientific and technological advances are crucial to human survival, one cannot also deny the fact that many of these advances can threaten human survival by scientists without social skills and conscience. They are likely to utilise instruments of science and technology advances to exploit and suppress other human beings rather than their betterment. To avoid such human self-exploitation or destruction, Integrated Social Science has to be taught, because it is one principal means to prepare any learner to accept one’s social roles and become responsible adults. It assists learners to develop positive values and respect for human life. The syllabus further takes into account national educational goals and the structure of the various disciplines that contribute to the subject “Integrated Social Science”. For instance, one of the main National Goals is the “achievement of an all-round development of the learner through self-reliance of an individual”. It is for this reason that the specific outcomes of the syllabus aim mostly at equipping the learner with productive skills. The syllabus emphasises the various approaches adopted in learning such disciplines in an integrated manner. The subject matter is arranged in a spiral manner, that is, dealing with the same topic, moving from the simple to the complex, while at the higher grades the study extends in breadth and depth. The syllabus takes into account factors of space, time perspective, political and socio-economic changes. 6 GENERAL OUTCOMES Integrated Social Science aims at developing a learner physically, socially, culturally, and economically who will become functional in society and responsible at the end of the learning cycle. The study area also provides opportunities for the development of knowledge, skills, values and attitudes that are necessary to face the challenges and dictates of adult life and dynamic society. The following are the general outcomes of the syllabus: Develop an understanding of the economic, political, civic, cultural, geographical and historical factors which influence social development; Create an understanding of democratic principles and beliefs such as human rights; Develop an understanding of the importance of sustainable development; Create an awareness of the interaction of human beings with social, economic and biophysical environment; Create an awareness of the consequences of Western European colonisation; Develop an understanding of political, economic and social developments which have taken place in Zambia before and after independence; Develop moral responsibility for the preservation, conservation and improvement of the natural and cultural resources that Zambia is endowed with; Develop an understanding of the determinants of population growth in Zambia; Equip learners with the necessary understanding of contemporary issues such as HIV/AIDS, substance abuse, child labour and abuse, corruption, water and sanitation, human rights and good governance; Develop the knowledge that man is a geological being and part of the earth’s ecosystem. 7 METHODOLOGY Recommended methodologies are learner-centred. They include group work, role play, case studies, and demonstration, debate and action projects. 8 SCHEMING As a reminder, a scheme of work is here defined as a series of related activities designed by the teacher to attain specific outcome or outcomes. Scheming is aimed at changing the behaviour of the learner through the attainment of specific outcome or outcomes. A scheme of work is also a plan to achieve specific outcomes through content and learning activities related to a topic or sub-topic. The scheme of work should consist of the following: Topic; Sub-topic; Key concepts and main ideas; Specific ideas drawn from main ideas; Aims for teaching of that topic/sub-topic; Initial learning activities; Development activities using aids; Evaluation activities; Summarising activities. 9 LESSON PLAN A lesson plan is a general or specific outline of what a teacher intends to do to help learners to learn. It should specify teaching/learning activities which will facilitate learning. A lesson plan must be arranged in such a way that effective instructions are clear and learners are exposed to meaningful learning experiences. It should include the following: A list of key concepts and main ideas; A statement of specific ideas derived from main ideas; A statement of specific outcomes; Teaching activities – what the teacher will do to facilitate learning; Learning activities – what the learner will do in order to learn; A list of resources/aids to be used to facilitate learning; Evaluation activities based on the stated specific outcomes (what the teacher wants to do to demonstrate that learning has taken place); Lesson evaluation 10 TIME ALLOCATION It is recommended that five (05) periods of forty (40) minutes each should be allocated to the teaching of Integrated Social Science. 11 GRADE 8 8.1 THEME: Political development GENERAL OUTCOME: Create an appreciation of political development and governance in Zambia since 1964 CONTENT TOPIC SUB-TOPIC SPECIFIC OUTCOMES KNOWLEDGE SKILLS VALUES Political Civic Education 8.1.1 Explain the meaning of civic Study of political, social, cultural Identification Knowledge Development education and economic issues of Zambia Zambia’s path to 8.1.2 Describe Zambia’s path to BSA Company rule, welfare Research Appreciation independence independence societies, trade unions, federation, Unity political parties Symbols of 8.1.3 Describe symbols of national Flag Critical Patriotism National identity Coat of arms thinking Solidarity Identity 8.1.4 Demonstrate the value of National anthem Unity national symbols Peace Governance Systems of 8.1.5 Identify systems of governance Systems: bad and good Critical Justice Governance 8.1.6 Describe the characteristics of Good; consultation, rule of law, thinking Accountability good and bad governance citizen participation in decision Identification Transparency making, accountability, Analysis transparency Bad; no consultation, non participation in decision making, absence of rule of law, 8.1.7 Identify institutions that Institutions: anti-corruption promote good governance commission, auditor generals office, the media, civil society organisation Constitution 8.1.8 State types of constitutions Written and unwritten constitutions Identification Appreciation 8.1.9 Explain the importance of a Promotes orderliness, guarantees Critical Awareness Constitution individual rights, thinking Patriotism Citizenship 8.1.11 State qualifications of Zambian By: birth, naturalisation, descent, Identification Patriotism citizenship Responsibility 8.1.12 Describe qualities of a good Loyalty, honest, patriotic, respect for Integrity 12 CONTENT TOPIC SUB-TOPIC SPECIFIC OUTCOMES KNOWLEDGE SKILLS VALUES citizen human rights, Respect 8.1.13 State rights and duties of a Rights; health, life, voting, Awareness Zambian citizen education, food, shelter Duties; pay tax, obey laws, report crime.
