Grade 12 Tourism Study Guide Booklet: Culture and Heritage 1. INTRODUCTION The declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic by the World Health Organisation led to the disruption of effective teaching and learning in many schools in South Africa. The majority of learners across grades spent less time in class due to the phased-in approach as well as, rotational / alternative timetables that were implemented across provinces. Consequently, most schools were not able to complete all the relevant content prescribed in Grades 10-12 in accordance with the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements for Tourism. Part of the mitigation and intervention against the impact of COVID-19 in the current Recovery Plans in Grades 10-12, the Department of Basic Education (DBE) worked in collaboration with Subject Specialists from various Provincial Education Departments (PEDs) to develop this Self- Study Guide Booklet. This Self Study Guide Booklet includes and covers topics, skills and concepts for ‘Culture and Heritage’, prescribed in the Teaching plans for this topic in Grade 12. Content in this booklet is critical towards laying a strong foundation to better understand and improve the understanding of this topic. The main aim of this booklet is to: • Close existing content gaps in this topic • Improve and strengthen a full understanding of the content prescribed for this topic • Improve the performance in this topic in Grade 12. 3

Sites which are important to the people that live in that specific Provincial heritage sites province. National heritage sites Sites that are of cultural and natural importance to the country. What is culture? Culture is the way of life of a specific group of people. It can be seen in ways of behaving, beliefs, values, and custom followed. Culture is passed on from one generation to the next. Culture is not static but always changing as each generation contributes its experience of the world and discards things that are no longer useful to them. Culture is not something you are born with. It is earned from family, school, religious teachings, media and the government of the country. Advertisements, magazines and movies are also very powerful in shaping culture. [Spot On Tourism Grade 10. ISBN 978-0-796-23670-8] HERITAGE Cultural values of a nation are inherited, preserved and sustained for future generations to come. Heritage can either be cultural or natural. CULTURAL DIVERSITY South Africa is known as a “Rainbow Nation” because of cultural diversity that all come together to make one country. Cultural diversity is noticeable in different styles of cultures depicted by different buildings. Handicrafts made can also be easily associated to specific cultural groups.

Rituals are a unifying factor. • Some of these sites must be protected so that as a country we don’t repeat the same mistakes again e.g. The Hector Peterson Museum. • These sites can also be visited for educational purposes. • Visiting these sites will create an awareness of what we need to do as a nation.

Grade 12 Tourism Study Guide Booklet: Culture and Heritage What is a heritage site? • Heritage sites are either local, provincial, or national heritage sites. • Places with exceptional qualities can be identified by SAHRA (or a member of the public) because the place has special local, provincial, or national significance (value). • An appointed group of people will visit the site, speak to the local community, and then evaluate the value of the site. • It is then decided if the site has provincial or national significance. • The site is placed on the register - national or provincial. • These places will be marked with a badge or a plaque. The plaque shows that the place / site has provincial or national value.

Grade 12 Tourism Study Guide Booklet: Culture and Heritage 4. GENERAL EXAMINATION TIPS How to prepare/study for the Tourism examination. In preparing for your final exams work through as many past examination papers as you can. Remember, your success in the final exam will depend on how much extra time you put into preparing. 1. Have all your materials ready before you begin studying – pencils, pens, highlighters, paper, etc. 2. Be positive. Study time must become a habit - keep reminding yourself why you are studying. 3. Self-discipline is key. Be strict with yourself. 4. Draw up a study timetable. Include enough sleep and break times. During break times take a walk outside. 5. Break up your learning sections into manageable parts. Trying to learn too much at one time will only result in a tired, unfocused, and anxious brain. 6. Keep your study sessions short but effective and reward yourself with short, constructive breaks. 7. Teach your concepts to anyone who will listen. It might feel strange at first, but it is worth reading your revision notes aloud. 8. When you make notes remember your brain learns well with colours when you underline, highlight, circle key words. 9. You can also use Mnemonics – words, or short sentences to help you remember. 10. Be confident with the learning areas you know well and focus your brain energy on the sections that you find more difficult to take in. 11. Repetition is the key to retaining information you must learn. Keep going – don’t give up! 12. Sleeping at least 8 hours every night, eating properly, and drinking plenty of water are all important things you need to do for your brain. Studying for exams is like strenuous exercise, so you must be physically prepared. 13. Use the correct terminology and subject language as you are preparing, that way you are used to them by the time you are writing exam (e.g. correct names for icons) 14. Compile a glossary in your notebook for all the sections of the work. 15. Practise writing paragraph type questions using complete sentences when working through past examination papers. 16. Engage with resources like the ones used in the examination papers while you are studying. For example: study the picture and ask yourself questions like: what is the topic of the picture? (look at the heading). What is the resource telling me? Does it show a positive or negative impact? 17. It is important that you practise how to present your answers in a logic way that show logical reasoning. That is when you write down how your thoughts led you to an answer. 18. How to study definitions: Break the word or words up into understandable parts e.g. inter (between) national (nations/ countries) thus international means between different countries. 72
