  • The History of »Feeblemindedness«
    August 1st 2019 THE HISTORY OF »FEEBLEMINDEDNESS« Ritzau Scanpix/Birthe Melchiors A historico-philosophical inquiry into the difficulty of integrating a particularly unnoticed presence of feeblemindedness into the Danish competitive work market. Master’s thesis for MSc in Business Administration and Philosophy Characters / Pages: 270889 / 119 Supervised by Marius Gudmand-Høyer Written by Jonathan Hentze Drescher (79110) and Peter Niklas Birksted (93793) Summary In 1920, Karl Kristian Steincke expressed a concern for the unnoticed presence of Aandssvaghed (feeblemindedness) and its potential negative influence on the Danish competitive work market. This thesis is a historico-philosophical inquiry into the relations between this unnoticed presence of Aandssvaghed and how it became a concern in relation to the Danish competitive work market. The thesis covers the period between 1842 to 1920, from when Aandssvaghed appeared as a medico- pedagogical term between 1842 and 1890, to its conception and formation as something the com- petitive work market should either be protected from or able to include. The inquiry it structured according to four chapters that allow for the conjoint examination of how Aandssvaghed emerged as a concern in relation to a work market on one hand and on the other of how Aandssvaghed through the formation between work market, developmental deficiency and traits of intelligence and self-control. Through the use of problematization and experience analysis, as conceived by Michel Foucault, conceptualized by Marius Gudmand-Høyer and further developed with the work of this thesis in mind, the thesis conducted this conjoint inquiry centered around the notion of the unnoticed presence of Aandssvaghed, and the investigation found the notion to have emerged as an object of concern in relation to a competitive work market due to the inherent double-binding relationship of responsibility to be inherent to the collective experience of Aandssvaghed.

The generally held opinion during the previous century was that highly able students did not need special attention or extra facilities. Consequently, the task of developing educational and other provisions for the gifted in schools was completely neglected. Only within the past couple of decades has it become more widely recognized and accepted that all children need support that is adjusted to their level of ability, whether low or high, in order to develop their potential to the fullest.

  • Hoofstuk 3 Tersaaklike Interne Determinante Vir
    HOOFSTUK 3 TERSAAKLIKE INTERNE DETERMINANTE VIR PRODUKTIEWE ONDERWYSVOORSIENING AAN AKADEMIES BEGAAFDE LEERDERS IN SUID-AFRIKA 3.1 Inleiding Die visie van die Suid-Afrikaanse onderwysstelsel stel dat dit die gesamentlike verantwoordelikheid is van alle Suid-Afrikaners wat ‘n belang het by die stelsel van onderwys en opleiding om ‘n bydrae te lewer tot die vestiging van ‘n regverdige en gelyke onderwysstelsel van hoë gehalte met ‘n kenmerkende kultuur van gedissiplineerde onderrig en leer (SA, 1995). Dus moet daar op ‘n gelyke wyse aan die behoeftes van begaafde leerders voldoen word. Die Witskrif oor Onderwys en Opleiding van Maart 1995 beklemtoon dat gelyke toegang tot basiese onderwys gewaarborg moet word, wat meer as net skoolonderwys insluit (SA, 1995). Dit beteken dat verskillende leergeleenthede voorsien moet word wat die leerders ‘n buigsaamheid bied ten opsigte van hoe en teen watter tempo hulle leer. Bogenoemde word ook in Artikel 4 van die Wet op Nasionale Onder- wysbeleid bevestig (SA, 1996b). Hierdie is ‘n voorbeeld van ‘n interne determinant wat ‘n beduidende invloed op die Suid-Afrikaanse onderwysstelsel uitoefen. Die interne determinante kan in drie groepe verdeel word, naamlik opvoedkundig, histories en wederkerige determinante (Steyn et al., 2002:140-141). Hierdie hoofstuk stel met behulp van ‘n literatuurstudie ondersoek in na die tersaaklike interne determinante wat ‘n rol speel by die produktiewe onderwysvoorsiening aan akademies begaafde leerders. Die ondersoek vorm deel van die fase van beplanningsanalise van die raamwerk vir strategiese onderwysstelselbeplanning (vgl par 1.4.4.2). Vir die doel van hierdie navorsing is daar in die toepassing van die strategiese beplanningsraamwerk net aan die interne determinante van opvoedkundige en historiese aard aandag gegee.
