Question 1
Shulman (2005:504) described classroom teaching as “perhaps the most complex, most challenging and
most demanding and frightening activity our species has ever invented” Do you agree or disagree with
this statement?
List five reasons and give practical examples to illustrate your answer on each statement.
I agree with this statement.
Disruptive learners - Some learners might not be interested in schooling and start disturbing other
learners and the school as a whole.

learners unoccupied.
Poor school management - This will have a negative impact of the behaviour of the learners which makes
it difficult to control the school and classrooms if there is chaos.
