Abstract:

Globally there is a serious need to equip children and young people with knowledge, attitudes, skills and values to assist them in making healthy lifestyle choices. Life skills education is possibly among the most important answers to the problems and challenges many young people are faced with. Life skills programs are being developed to address the alarming increase in high risk health behaviours among adolescents. According to international research, Health promotion is a critical life skill to acquire, since health impacts on almost every facet of a person and their society. The South Afri

Abstract:

The mining, agricultural and energy sectors, along with the Department of Water Affairs (DWA) are critical role players in managing South Africa’s water resources. Water resources are under increasing pressure due to continuous population growth and economic development. It is critical to adopt a management policy that can lead to sustainable water supply. The National Water Act, 1998, (Act 36 of 1998), Section 56(1) instructs the Minister of Water Affairs to establish a Pricing Strategy for charges for any water use described in Section 21 of the Act. In light of this the Department implement

Abstract:

This thesis presents and tests a novel hypothesis that attempts to predict the relative humidity (RH) dependent survival of airborne respiratory viruses in protein-enriched saline aerosols. The hypothesis proposed that virus-laden respiratory aerosols exist in either an effloresced (solid) or deliquesced (liquid) state, depending on the ambient air RH and that the survival of viruses embedded in such aerosols changes with that state. Experiments confirmed as predicted, that rhinovirus and influenza virus exhibited a V-shaped surviving fraction dependence on RH. Implications concerning the surv

Abstract:

This study examined exceptional student educators’ (ESE) personal practical theories (PPTs) and how they impact complex decision-making when it comes to students with disabilities and their families. A case study methodology was selected to explore how four ESE teachers and leaders developed their PPTs as well as how they planned, interacted, and reflected upon decisions made during one workweek. The guiding questions of this study were: what are the PPTs of ESE leaders and teachers, what factors influence the development of PPTs, and how do PPTs impact special educators’ work with students wi

Abstract:

Current literature regarding quality health services frequently identifies interprofessional collaboration (IPC) as essential to patient-centred care, sustainable health systems, and a productive workforce. The IPC literature tends to focus on interprofessionalism and collaboration and pays little attention to the concept of practice, which is thought to be a represented world of objects and processes that have pre-given characteristics practitioners can know cognitively and apply or manage correctly. Many strategies intended to support IPC simplify and codify the complex, contested, and unpre

Abstract:

The latter part of the 20th century has witnessed significant advances in the scientific understanding of the link between a person's genes and their response to medication. The term 'pharmacogenetics' was first used to describe clinical observations of inherited difference in response to medicines in the 1950s. Research in this field has gained momentum in recent years fuelled by the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2001.

Abstract:

Water utilities can experience problems from bubble formation during conventional treatment, including impaired particle settling, filter air binding, and measurement as false turbidity in filter effluent. Coagulation processes can cause supersaturation and bubble formation by converting bicarbonate alkalinity to carbon dioxide by acidification. A model was developed to predict the extent of bubble formation during coagulation which proved accurate, using an apparatus designed to physically measure the actual volume of bubble formation.

This study explores different perceptions of security and investigates if recognition of climate change as a security issue has implications for countries’ armed forces. I use a securitization framework to understand how discursive positions are created, and by making the framework more dynamic I investigate how similar security matters are represented in different ways. I argue that securitization of climate change in national contexts changes the armed forces’ strategies to bring about security and that their activities are affected by the underlying logics of the discursive arguments.

Reasons, for Williams, are hypothetical. I argue that he takes this view of practical reason because of a prior answer to the question “How should I live?”.

However, there has been little research into the role of primary healthcare providers regarding childhood bullying and the effectiveness of different approaches to screening and management.

This thesis aims to provide a coherent account of free will and practical grounds to prefer it. Its goal is to develop a pragmatic understanding of agency by which to hold individuals morally accountable. The paper begins with a critique of P.F.

Subsequently, it proceeds to a defense of incompatibilism that traces an argument through the existing literature. From this position, it claims that neither Strawson nor traditional compatibilists can provide an account of

Abstract:

As stagnant water contacts copper pipe and lead solder (simulated soldered joints), a corrosion cell is formed between the metals in solder (Pb, Sn) and copper. If the resulting galvanic current exceeds about 2 µA/cm², a highly corrosive microenvironment can form at the solder surface, with pH <2.5 and chloride concentrations 11 times higher than bulk water levels. Waters with relatively high chloride tend to sustain high galvanic currents, preventing passivation of the solder surface and contributing to lead contamination of potable water.

The failure of ‘blueprint’ development interventions to deliver substantive improvements in poverty reduction has been well recognised over the last twenty years.

As a theoretical framework and as a set of principles for guiding intervention, sustainable livelihoods thinking has implications for development management.
