Cummins (2007, 2008) explains that a minimum of five to seven years is needed for English additional language learners to catch up academically, that is, to acquire the language proficiency needed in English to succeed at the tertiary level. • The acknowledgement from English-speaking stu- dents that the intervention strategy was an inno- vative idea, together with the additional language speaking students who suggested that it should be done for their languages as well, is a strong indica- tion that there is a need for transformative language support for students whose first language is not English. keywords: africa; afrikaans; assignments; education; english; language; learning; south; students; support; translations; university cache: gjte-35408.pdf plain text: gjte-35408.txt item: #36 of 46 id: gjte-36656 author: Ndiku, Judah Mualuko; Nasongo, Joseph W.; Odero, Monica title: The Role of Ethics Education in the Fight Against Corruption date: 2024 words: 7562 flesch: 52 summary: This position paper examined the place of ethics education in secondary school education in curbing corruption in Africa.
