Perspectieven op onderwijs in de moedertaal

Abstract

This research provides insights of the different perspectives in policies of Mother Tongue Education (MTE) of national and international organizations in Uganda. This research is analyzed by two types of research: MTE policy documents of various organizations working in MTE and a literature overview. The four perspectives in this research were found in the literature resources and by using the model of the theory of change. A formal perspective mostly means developing curriculum, school materials and to invest in teachers. An informal perspective focus on a student- based approach and a community- based approach. This study shows that most national and international organizations have an formal perspective in how to provide MTE, except for one organization which has an informal perspective. It can be concluded when organizations focus more on an informal perspective in providing MTE, MTE is likely to be more successful.
