The study arose as a result of the dawn of the democracy, in South Africa in 1994 which necessitated innovations in the education sector. An educational approach known as the Outcomes Based Education (OBE) was introduced in 1998. As such many changes were eventually made in the History classroom (Schoeman & Manyane, 2002). History in a school curriculum is often understandably used by the government education authorities to present and promote a particular world view. History curriculum documents in South Africa have long been under fire for being content-heavy. The new Further Education and Training History Subject Statement has dealt with these challenges and produced manageable subject content (Bertram, 2006).enEducation and state -- South Africa -- Eastern CapeCurriculum evaluation -- South Africa -- Eastern CapeCurriculum planning -- South Africa -- Eastern CapeHistory -- Study and teaching -- South Africa -- Eastern CapeEducation, Secondary -- South Africa -- Eastern CapeThesis
