Goals

The goals of the Fulbright-Hays GPA in South Africa are to:

1. Increase linguistic and cultural competency among secondary and post-secondary school educators and administrators involved in Africa Area Studies. Participants will receive substantive thematic and standards-based Zulu language and culture instruction for fifteen hours a week to attain beginner’s level linguistic and cultural competency in the language.
2. Enhance the quality and relevance of Africa area studies instructional materials for middle, high and post-secondary schools. Through lecture seminars, discussions and site visits, participants will assemble knowledge to use in creating instructional modules for dissemination nationwide.
