Abstract:

Thesis (MPA)--Stellenbosch University, 2001.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Government of South Africa introduced the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) as a means of addressing the sub-standard, living conditions many underprivileged and disadvantaged societies were experiencing in the country. That gave community development impetus. The RDP, as a government policy, presupposed that public institutions would be responsible for its implementation. That implied that public officials, inter alia, would have to facilitate community development. This change agent status of public officials also implied that they would have, out of necessity and demand, to acquire or to demonstrate knowledge of project and community development management skills. Management sciences argue that an organisations' effectiveness is, amongst other, the result of interplay between the internal capacity (inputs), outputs (production) and outcomes (impacts). Internal capacity includes, among others, the training of personnel for the achievement of goals. This study, as stated in the research question, seeks to explain the relationship between project management training and effective community development. It seeks to establish whether there are a significant number of public officials who are trained in project management for community development. The study focuses on the Province of the Eastern Cape, especially the Department of Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture, with special reference to cultural officers. The study further presents the Willowvale Case Study to demonstrate in a practical way the relevance of project management skills to the implementation of community development programmes. This case study also serves as base to launch arguments in favour of trained public officials. The research results suggest that public officials, especially cultural officers, lack project management skills. These findings presuppose that the implementation of some community development projects may be flawed, delayed or postponed. The study recommends that the Province of the Eastern Cape consider setting up an interdepartmental body for the purpose of establishing an integrated project and community development training policy, in consultation with relevant tertiary institutions for support and advice.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Suid-Afrikaanse regering het die Heropbou- en Ontwikkelingsprogram (HOP) ingestel as instrument om die substandaard lewensomstandighede wat verskeie minderbevoorregte en agtergestelde gemeenskappe in die land ervaar, aan te spreek. Die HOP, as regeringsbeleid veronderstel dat openbare instellings verantwoordelik is vir die implementering daarvan. Dit impliseer dat openbare amptenare, onder andere, gemeenskapsontwikkeling moet fasiliteer. Hierdie veranderingsagent status van openbare amptenare impliseer dat hulle as 'n noodsaaklikheid vaardighede in projekbestuur en gemeenskapsontwikkeling moet bekom of oor beskik. In die bestuurswetenskappe word geargumenteer dat organisatoriese effektiwiteit onder andere die resultaat is van 'n verwantskap tussen interne kapasiteit, uitsette en uitkomste. Interne kapasiteit fokus onder andere weer op opleiding vir die bereiking van doelwitte. Hierdie studie poog om die verhouding tussen projekbestuursopleiding en effektiewe gemeenskapsontwikkeling te verklaar. Die studie probeer bepaal of 'n saakmakende hoeveelheid openbare amptenare opgelei is in projekbestuur vir gemeenskapsontwikkeling. Die studie fokus op die Provinsie van die Oos-Kaap, spesifiek die Department van Sport, Ontspanning, Kuns en Kultuur, met spesiale verwysing na kultuurbeamptes. 'n Gevalstudie van die Willowvale gemeenskap demonstreer op 'n praktiese wyse die relevansie van projekbestuursvaardighede vir die implimentering van gemeenskapsontwikkelingprogramme. Die gevalstudie verskaf ook 'n basis vir argumente ten gunste van opgeleide openbare amptenare. Die resultate van die studie suggereer dat openbare amptenare, veral kultuurbeamptes projekbestuursvaardighede kortkom. Hierdie bevindinge dui daarop dat die implementering van sekere gemeenskapsontwikkelingsprojekte beperkinge het, vertraag word en selfs gestaak kan word. Die studie beveel aan dat die Provinsie van die Oos-Kaap dit oorweeg om 'n interdepartementele liggaam te vestig. Die doel hiervan moet wees om 'n geïntegreerde Projek- en Gemeenskapsontwikkeling Opleidingsbeleid in konsultasie met relevante tersiêre instellings in te stel.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2002.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The shortage of skilled and high-level managerial human resources are jeopardising economic development and productivity growth in South Africa. It is a critical responsibility of senior management to identify the core competencies of the enterprise and to ensure that the competencies required by managers, specialists and the workforce in general are adequate and appropriate. As more organisations recognise the efficacy of projects and move towards a project-based approach, the demand for project managers has outstripped supply and there is a growing international interest in the selection, training and certification of project managers. The work done in projects has taken on a strategic flavour, and the role of project manager is consequently being redefined as a strategic, professional role. With the tremendous growth and expenditure in this field, training professionals and organizations can no longer ignore their basic responsibility to evaluate programmes and measure the results of such programmes. The aim of this study is to measure the extent of training needs assessment currently applied, the criteria used in the selection of programmes and participants, the extent of evaluation of programmes and other contributions by the organisations. An intensive literature study was undertaken to investigate the current research into training needs assessments, participant and program selection and organisational contributions to training. An additional survey was undertaken in order to assess the use of such programmes by organisations. The following perceptions were examined and found to be a true reflection of the project management training strategies currently applied in South Africa. Few organisations have formal training need assessment policies in place. Programmes are often selected by the participants and seldom evaluated. Participants often do not get the opportunity to implement the skills they have gained. Learning and individual development is not necessarily linked to the organisational development strategy.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ekonomiese ontwikkeling en groei in produktiwiteit in Suid Afrika word in gevaar gestel deur die tekort aan kundige en hoogstaande bestuursvlak menslike hulpbronne. Die kritiese verantwoordelikheid van die identifisering van kern vaardighede by die onderneming en die versekering van voldoende en toepaslike vaardighede by bestuurders, spesialiste en die werksmag in die algemeen berus by die senior bestuur. Toenemende hoeveelheid organisasies herken die suksesvolle werksaamheid van projekte en beweeg na 'n projek gebasseerde benadering. Derhalwe oorskry die aanvraag na projekbestuurders die aanbod en is daar groeiende internasionale belangstelling in die keuring, opleiding en sertifisering van projekbestuurders. Projekte word meer strategies benader en gevolglik vervul die projekbestuurder 'n toenemende strategiese en professionele funksie. As gevolg van die toenemende groei en besteding in hierdie gebied, mag opleidingskundiges en organisasies nie langer hul verantwoordelikheid teenoor die evaluering van die programme en die gevolglike uitkomste vermy nie. Die doel van hierdie studie was om ondersoek in te stel na die omvang van die bepaling van opleidingsbehoeftes asook die evaluering van opleidingsprogramme, die maatstawe in gebruik vir die selektering van programme en deelnemende kandidate en die mate van bydraes gelewer deur die organisasies. 'n Uitgebreide literatuursoektog is onderneem om die omvang van navorsing in hierdie areas te bepaal. Sekere aannames is ondersoek en bevind om ware weergawes te wees van die huidige ontwikkeling programme in projekbestuur in Suid Afrika. Weinig organisasies het formele beleidsrigtings ten opsigte van opleiding behoeftebepaling. Programme word dikwels deur die kandidate geselekteer en word selde ge-evalueer. Kandidate word selde die geleentheid gegun om nuutgewonde kennis toe te pas en te implementeer. Opleiding en individuele ontwikkeling is nie noodwendig gekoppel aan die ontwikkelings strategie van die organisasie nie.

Abstract:

Background: Facilitated Communication Training (FCT) is a controversial approach to supporting people with severe communication difficulties. It is one method of supporting Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC). It has the potential for enabling people with severe language impairments to access communication aids. The local education authority had experience of enabling a non-verbal young person with cerebral palsy who uses FCT to access mainstream education and were open to exploring whether other young people could benefit from this support. Aims: To explore ways of introducing FCT within the local authority in order to enhance the communication of young people who had been identified as not having had access to the means of reaching their communication potential. Method: An action research approach resulted in the implementation of a pilot project. AAC/FCT was introduced to a group of seven pupils and the adults who support them through a training and support programme. A case study methodology was used to analyse the outcomes for pupils and adults. Results: Action research was found to support the introduction of FCT. Some pupils showed significant gains through access to AAC/FCT. The majority of adults reported changes in their knowledge, use and attitudes towards AAC/FCT. Many attributed this to an increased belief in pupils' potential. Conclusions: Action research is an effective process in supporting change. There is a theoretical basis for explaining why FCT supports some pupils. The discourse used to describe FCT could be further supported by using theories that take account of context (mediated learning and activity theory) and could contribute to changing the negative historical and socio-cultural discourse associated with FCT. An effective training and ongoing support programme lead to changes in adults' practise.

Abstract:

A survey of graduates who participated in Project TEAM (School Psychology, Social Work, and Speech/Language Pathology) and Project PREP (Interdisciplinary Early Childhood Education) is presented. Graduates completed coursework, seminars and practica that emphasized knowledge and skills related to working with children in the birth through 5 age group and their families. The survey determined in which competencies graduates indicated they were best and least prepared by the program and which competencies were most and least applicable to their present careers. The survey also determined what teaming models the graduates are currently using and would prefer to use in their careers. Results indicated a general trend towards the interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary teaming models as those that graduates would prefer to use. The survey also looked at the process of the programs (i.e., participating in seminars with various disciplines, participating in the practica as a team, taking courses with other disciplines, etc.) to determine whether or not participants benefited from the program's overall organization. Results indicated that graduates agreed with the program process.

Abstract:

Despite the increasing popularity of research on intercultural preparation and its effectiveness, research on training for inpatriates has not been developed with the same level of rigour as research on training for expatriates. Furthermore, research on intercultural training hardly ever includes the aspect of preparing for the corporate culture of a company. For expatriates coming from headquarters’ national culture and equipped with a good knowledge of headquarters’ corporate culture, it might be sufficient to address only the national culture of the location abroad. But can the same be said for inpatriates coming from a foreign subsidiary? Therefore the qualitative research of my thesis was aimed at finding out if intercultural training programmes that address only the national culture of the host country are sufficient to prepare inpatriates for working at headquarters. A case study using a German multinational company has been conducted in order to find out what kind of problems and irritations inpatriates at the company’s headquarters perceive at work. In order to determine whether the findings are related to the national or the corporate culture, Hall’s and Hofstede’s approaches to culture were used. The interview analysis produced the following conclusion: Although the researched company promotes standardised worldwide corporate guidelines, there are many differences between headquarters and subsidiaries regarding the interpretation and realisation of these guidelines. These differences cause irritation, confusion and problems for the inpatriates. Therefore an effective intercultural preparation for inpatriates should be tailor-made and take into account the aspect of corporate culture, as well as the specific roles and functions of inpatriates.

Abstract:

Thoracic loads (i.e., a heavy backpack) commonly used in occupational and recreational settings significantly challenge human physiological systems and increase the work of breathing, which may promote respiratory muscle fatigue and negatively impacts whole body performance during physical tasks. Accordingly this thesis: (Chapter number: II) designed a laboratory based protocol that closely reflects occupational demands and (III) assessed the effect that load carriage (LC) has upon physiological and respiratory muscle function. Consequently the thesis addressed (IV) acute, (V) chronic and (VI) functional inspiratory muscle loading strategies to assess the limitations and trainability of the respiratory muscles to load carriage performance. The novel laboratory protocol, performed wearing a 25 kg backpack load, combined submaximal load carriage (LC; 60 min treadmill march at 6.5 km·h-1) and self-paced time trial exercise (LCTT; 2.4 km) to better reflect the physiological demands of occupational performance (between trials mean difference -0.34 ± 0.89 min, coefficient of variation 10.5%). Following LC, maximal inspiratory muscle pressure (PImax) and maximal expiratory muscle pressure (P¬Emax) were reduced by 11% and 13% respectively (P<0.05), and further by 5% and 6%, respectively (P< 0.05), after LCTT. Acute inspiratory loading (2 × 30 forced inspiratory efforts 40% PImax) following an active warm-up (10 min lactate turnpoint) failed to improve LCTT despite a transient increase in PImax of ~7% (P<0.05). Chronic inspiratory loading (6 wk, 50% PImax, 30 breaths twice daily) increased PImax (31%, p<0.05) reduced HR and perceptual responses post-LC, and improved LCTT (8%, P< 0.05) with no change in a placebo control. Combining IMT with functional core muscle exercises improved PImax and LCTT by 7% and 4% respectively (P< 0.05), which was greater than traditional IMT alone. Acute, chronic and functional inspiratory muscle loading strategies did not protect against respiratory muscle or locomotor muscle fatigue during LC and LCTT.

Abstract:

This qualitative study explores the facilitators, barriers, benefits, and limitations of the mentoring relationship between recently graduated nurse mentees and their mentors. These nurses participated in a seven-week New Nurse Internship Mentoring Program in an urban hospital. The study sample consisted of twenty inexperienced and nineteen experienced registered nurses who represented diverse racial, cultural, and clinical nursing specialties. Focus group and open-ended personal interviews were used to gather data. Findings were reported by open coding, domain and thematic analyses. Major findings of the study were related to four research questions accompanied by important information regarding the mentoring experience in general. Four research questions which guided the study included: (1) What are the facilitators of the mentoring relationship? (2) What are the barriers to the mentoring relationship? (3) What are the benefits of the mentoring relationship? and (4) What are the limitations of the mentoring relationship? Findings suggested the relationships were viewed as good to excellent. The transition from student nurse to graduate nurse was seen as both difficult and smooth. Mentoring was defined in relation to mentor characteristics. positive mentor traits were identified as patient, supportive and knowledgeable. Facilitators to mentoring were identified as factors which were helpful including mentor and mentee personality characteristics and institutional factors. Barriers to mentoring were identified based on debilitating factors, personality conflicts, scheduling conflicts, mentor dislike for the job and mentor lack of knowledge. Means to overcoming barriers included matching team schedules I rewarding the mentor and increasing mentor training. Benefits were defined as advantages to the mentor, mentee, institution and profession. Respondents were reluctant to identify limitations. Findings verified that a nurse mentoring relationship is an important factor in assisting the transition of graduates into the nursing profession. Findings offer implications for nursing education and professionals responsible for providing a work environment supportive to developing clinically competent nurses.<br>Ph. D.

Full text

Abstract:

Training Packages form the basis upon which practitioners in the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector in Australia develop their pedagogical processes. As workplaces adapt their practices to compete globally, demand for skilled and knowledgeable workers places pressure on institutional training providers such as TAFE to develop training programs that support the acquisition of higher order thinking skills in graduates. Using a competence based framework as a backdrop, the research centres on the notion of the place of Project Based Learning in a Training Package context. The research proposes that learning through projects is an effective means of integrating Training Package outcomes with an instructional model that engages learners in independent, flexible and reflective learning. The research was conducted retrospectively from a case study of an AQF Level 6 Textile, Clothing and Footwear Training Package Program at RMIT University TAFE. An Action Research approach underpins the investigation, resulting in the profiling of teaching, learning and assessment as areas in need of further examination. These defining themes are explored in the context of the Project Based Learning model developed at RMIT, with consideration given to the potential for broader application. The discussion concludes with a theoretical review of the new understandings of pedagogy. The study aims to establish that a constructive alignment exists between the behaviourist approach of Training Packages and the more constructivist theories behind Project Based Learning; rendering it a suitable instructional model that meets the needs of 21st century learners.

Abstract:

The purpose of the present thesis was to carry out an evaluation of the Project Management training course at IMS Health Canada (Intercontinental Medical Statistics). The evaluation methodology was based on Kirkpatrick's Four-Level Evaluation model (1975). It involved measuring participants' reactions to the training course (Level I), learning gains from the training (Level II) and behavior change, regarding the degree to which participants applied what they learned to their job performance (Level III). Evaluation data were gathered from all past participants in the training using a survey form, interviews, and a focus group, as well as through interviews with their supervisors and the training instructor. Participants, supervisors and the training instructor found the training to be very basic in nature. It provided participants with a necessary project management methodology and terminology, which assisted them in defining, and to a lesser extent, planning projects. Data revealed that the Project Management course should include future instruction on how to implement IMS-type projects and use a Project Management (PM) software, in order to enable participants to carry out projects and manage project contingencies effectively

Abstract:

Bibliography: leaves 58-65.<br>South African mental health services are in a crisis. Rural areas are particularly neglected. While shortage of resources is readily acknowledged, there have been various suggestions mooted to address these inadequacies. These solutions include: decentralisation, promotion of primary mental health care, encouraging community participation and involvement of indigenous helpers. Psychological consultation and training is a valuable way of implementing most of these suggestions as it is estimated that many mental health disorders are not diagnosed or treated because front-line workers do not have the knowledge or skill to do so. Although consultation and training is accepted as a useful way of working, it is not without problems. Certain factors make it more or less possible to implement. These factors are discussed. Particular attention is paid to the topic of hierarchical relations inherent in intra-and interprofessional contexts. It is believed that these relations may interfere with the creation of equitable consultant-consultee partnerships, and therefore hinder the consultation and training process. The present research evaluates factors which facilitate or hinder the consultation and training programme at the Mamre Community Health Project. This project is a non-government organisation aiming to improve of the health of the community of Mamre, a small rural town on the west coast of the Western Cape. Target consultees, including nursing sisters, social workers and paraprofessionals, were interviewed using a semi-structured interview schedule. The aim was to elicit experiences and opinions of consultation and training. Psychological consultants who had worked at the Mamre Community Health Project were also interviewed using a semi-structured interview schedule to elicit their experiences of consultation. Athematic analysis highlights factors which facilitate and factors which inhibit the process. Results are discussed in the light of the literature review, and recommendations are made regarding the future practice of consultation and training.

Abstract:

The present study examines aspects of assessment and study skills at primary level through the production and evaluation of a set of project-based materials for 8 to 11 year olds. The materials, entitled The Prismaston File, were prepared for use in the Curriculum Provision in Small Primary Schools (PRISMS) Project, and represent an attempt to expand the curriculum coverage and range of assessment techniques available to primary teachers. In addition there was a need to extend study skills research into the primary age range and to provide a direct link between study behaviour and performance, thus avoiding past dependence on self-report methodology and examination results. The Prismaston File attempted to achieve these aims by adopting an integrating theme for a variety of multiple choice exercises and structured tasks and by permitting the study process to take place in normal classroom conditions. Acceptable levels of reliability and concurrent validity were achieved. Data was collected from 418 lower and 544 upper junior school children in nine LEAs. Study behaviour was examined through children's tabulated records of their use of resources, friend and teacher help. Over half of the children were able to make these records appropriately, and the results showed that the vast majority of these could use the materials independently, especially in the upper age range. Classroom observation supported this interpretation but revealed some difficulties amongst the younger age group in assimilating unanticipated information. Factor analysis of the multiple choice data revealed a wider range of factors than could be accounted for by tested achievement in basic skills alone. Four factors emerged from the analyses of both the upper and lower junior versions and were explained primarily in terms of study contexts. These factors represented different aspects of graphicacy and literacy, as well as different levels of task engagement. These results are discussed in terms of the importance of assessing children's performance in a wide range of topics, modes and curriculum areas, and of linking process and product by means of observation and children's own records. It is suggested that teacher-made project-based assessment linked to attainment targets can provide a vehicle for National Curriculum assessment in the primary classroom.
