Thesis (MEdPsych (Educational Psychology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2009.<br>According to the latest available statistics, 9 million people in South Africa
are illiterate. A large number of these people did not attend school. This can
be attributed to a number of factors, amongst others no entry to any form of
schooling, economic realities and a expectation of low quality of life
It is especially after 1994 that Adult Basic Education and Training was
scrutinized in order to address the backlogs. A more closer investigation
has shown that the adult education centres at a convenient sample of 3
secondary schools in the Western Cape (N = 18) are merely an extension
of mainstream education, without taking into account the notion of the
Andragogy (The Teaching of Adults).
This study aims to determine guidelines to assist the educator of adults on
the path to empowerment, in order to help to ensure the above scientific accountability

Study project (M.Med.) -- University of Stellenbosch, 2001.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The main purpose in doing forensic post mortems is to supply information to the
judicial system. Medical personnel involved in doing post mortems seldom get
feedback regarding efficiency. Numerous allegations have been made regarding
the work of district surgeons in terms of forensic post mortems, often suggesting
that the work is substandard.
In South Africa district surgeons do post mortems mostly in the rural areas, and
training centre personnel do forensic post mortems in urban areas. Training
centre personnel include specialized forensic pathologists, registrars and medical
officers working in the Departments of Forensic Medicine, affiliated to
universities. The South African Police Service mostly manages government
mortuaries. The South African forensic medico-legal system is unique, and does
not correspond in with the four main systems used worldwide.
Research was done by sending 200 questionnaires to a representative group
from the legal fraternity of the Western Cape (including judges / magistrates,
state prosecutors, private lawyers) and also the South African Police Service
investigating officers. The judiciary, as the users of the information generated
through forensic post mortems, are therefore in a suitable position to determine
the efficacy of forensic post mortem. The questionnaire was structured to
determine the general perception, as well as comments, regarding 9 different
aspects involved with doing forensic post mortems. These include the
thoroughness and completeness of reports, standard of academic knowledge,
efficacy of verbal testimony in court, length of time in releasing the report, general
attitude, efficacy of sketches and diagrams, efficacy of photography, sufficient
taking of toxicology samples and sufficient utilization of special laboratory
investigations. The last question was an open question to allow for general
comments and anecdotes.
For each aspect it was also determined whether there was a difference in efficacy
noted between the two groups. The effect of this, if any, on the judicial criminal
justice system was also assessed.
A different questionnaire was sent out to all forensic pathologists in the Western
Cape. The standard of work of the district surgeons was hereby assessed.
General comment regarding academic knowledge, and findings at post mortem
made by district surgeons was assessed. The pathologists were also questioned
regarding the general attitude of district surgeons, and imput were asked
regarding continued medical education programs. An area for general comment
was also supplied.
The main findings were as follows:
a. The legal fraternity in the Western Cape is generally satisfied with the
efficiency of forensic post mortems, except the use of laboratory
investigations and also the length of time to release reports.
b. The legal fraternity could determine a difference in the efficiency of post
mortems done by district surgeons and training centre personnel.
Training centre personnel were generally regarded as more effective.
c. The difference between the two groups, due to ineffective district surgeon
post mortems, had a negative effect on the criminal justice system.
The following recommendations were made:
a. Training centre personnel: Serious consideration should be given to
appointing qualified forensic pathologists in the rural areas. Training
centre personnel should also be more involved in training the district
surgeons.
b. District surgeons: The training, re-training and continued medical
education of district surgeons in the Western Cape should be prioritized.
The service conditions should also be reviewed.
c. Administrative: Audit of post mortem reports. The efficiency regarding
court appearances should be audited through the Department of Justice.
Administrative power will be necessary to oversee the above-mentioned
recommendations.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die hoofdoel met die doen van geregtelike post mortems is om inligting te
verskaf aan die regsproses. Medici gemoeid met geregtelike post mortems kry
baie seide terugvoer oor die effektiwiteit van werk gelewer in die hof. Daar is ook
herhaaldelik suggesties gemaak dat die werk van die distriksgeneeshere met
betrekking tot geregtelike post mortems soms suboptimaal is.
Regsmediese post mortemdienste in Suid Afrika word verskaf deur distriksgeneeshere
in die platteland, en deur personeel verbonde aan opleidingshospitale
in die stede. Die opleidingssentra-personeel sluit in gespesialiseerde
forensiese patoloe, kliniese assistente en mediese beamptes werksaam in 'n
Departement van Geregtelike Geneeskunde verbonde aan 'n universiteit. Staats-
Iykshuise word bestuur en beheer deur die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens. Daar
bestaan geen soortgelyke model vir die voorsiening van regsmediese dienste in
die res van die wereld nie.
Navorsing is gedoen deur vraelyste uit te stuur aan 200 verteenwoordigende
regslui (wat insluit regters/landdroste, staatsaanklaers, privaat regslui) en aan
Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens-ondersoekbeamptes in die Wes Kaap. Die reg, as
verbruikers van regsmediese dienste is gekies om 'n opinie uit te spreek oor die
doeltreffendheid van forensiese post mortems. Die vraelyste is gestruktureer
om die algemene tevredenheid en opinies en kommentaar te bekom oor nege
verskillende aangeleenthede rakend die forensiese post mortem, nl. deeglikheid
en volledigheid van verslae, standaard van akademiese kennis, effektiwiteit van
verbale getuienisaflegging in die hof, tydsverloop vir lewering van verslae,
houding en gesindheid van medici, doeltreffendheid van sketse en diagram me,
effektiewe gebruik van fotografie, effektiewe gebruik van toksikologiese
ondersoeke, effektiewe gebruik van spesiale ondersoeke, asook 'n algemene oop
vraag vir kommentaar oor probleemareas.
Daar word vervolgens vir elke aangeleentheid bepaal of daar 'n verskil in
effektiwiteit opgelet word tussen twee mediese subgroepe, en indien wei watter
groep meer effektief funksioneer. Verder sal nagegaan word of die regsproses
geaffekteer word deur enige van bogenoemde bevindinge.
'n Verskillende vraelys is uitgestuur aan aile geregtelike patoloe in die Wes-Kaap.
Hiermee word die standaard van die werk van distriksgeneeshere beoordeel.
Kommentaar is gevra oor akademiese kennis met betrekking tot geregtelike post
mortems en oor bevindinge gemaak deur distriksgeneeshere by post mortems.
Daar word ook gevra oor die algemene houding van distriksgeneeshere, asook
vir voorstelle vir voortgesette onderrigsprogramme. 'n Oop vraag is gestel vir
kommentaar oor probleemareas.
Uit die response is die volgende gevolgtrekkings gemaak:
a. Die regslui in die Wes-Kaap is oor die algemeen tevrede met die diens
gelewer met betrekking tot geregtelike post mortems, met uitsondering
van die effektiwiteit van laboratoriumondersoeke, en ook oor die tydsverloop
tussen die doen van post mortem en die vrystel van die verslae.
b. Die regslui kon 'n verskil bepaal in die graad van effektiwiteit van post
mortems gedoen deur distriksgeneeshere en opleidingssentra-personeel.
Opleidingssentra-personeel is deur die meerderheid van respondente
identifiseer as meer effektief.
c. Die verskil tussen die twee groepe, a.g.v. oneffektiewe distriksgeneesheer
post mortems, het 'n negatiewe effek op die regsproses.
Aanbevelings is gemaak om die sisteem te verbeter:
a. Opleidingssentra-personeel: Die uitplasing van gekwalifiseerde forensiese
patoloe in die platteland moet oorweeg word. Opleidingssentrapersoneel
kan ook meer betrokke wees by opleiding van distriksgeneeshere.
b. Distriksgeneeshere: Aandag moet gegee word aan die opleiding,
heropleiding en voortgesette geneeskundige onderrig van distriksgeneeshere
in die Wes-Kaap. Die werksomstandighede waaronder hulle
diens lewer moet ook aangespreek word.
C. Administratief: Ouditering van post mortem verslae. Ouditering van
effektiwiteit van hofverskynings, in assosiasie met die Departement van
Justisie. Admininistratiewe wilskrag sal ook essensieel wees by
implementering van bogenoemde voorstelle.

Denna studie är ämnad att undersöka vad som får ett spel att upplevas som rättvist och strävar efter designriktlinjer som leder till rättvisa spel. Studien utgår från en filosofisk bakgrund och försöker att finna samband med diskussionen om rättvisa i spel som existerar, men fokuserar specifikt på interaktion mellan spelaren och spelmekaniken.För studien har ett digitalt kortspel utvecklats enligt designriktlinjer baserade på egalitarianism och meritbaserade förtjänstprinciper. Olika spelmoment har designats för att skapa en kontrast som kan användas för att jämföra resultaten av att följa de olika designriktlinjerna.Spelet spelades av tio testpersoner som fick spela igenom alla spelmomenten och sedan svara på intervjufrågor om spelupplevelsen. Resultaten antydde att det finns olika uppfattningar om vad rättvisa innebär även i spel, men att meritbaserade belöningssystem ansågs mer underhållande än egalitarianistiskt rättvisa system och att uppfattad rättvisa skiljer sig i tävlingar mot människor och datorer.

Thesis (MEd)--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: “… education must seek to help pupils become morally just individuals” (Waghid,
2004b:535).
South Africa, as a fairly young democracy, faces many challenges. Education of its
youth into adults that can fulfil their obligations in a democratic society is but one of
these challenges. A democracy can only be successful when a country’s citizens
internalise basic values such as mutual respect and responsibility. Newspapers and
news reports unfortunately tell of increasing moral decay amongst the youth of South
Africa.
In this research, various models of value education are critically evaluated in order to
determine the best model for establishing values in the youth. Character education is
discussed as a balanced and comprehensive approach to value education, and critical
comments on the Manifesto on Values, Education and Democracy attempt to show its
relevance for value education in practice. The increase in social problems such as
poverty, single-parent families and AIDS orphans, leads to an increase in “at-riskchildren”
in South Africa. This study therefore also investigates possible ways in
which teachers can contribute to instilling positive values in at-risk learners.
The establishment, development and internalisation of values are a long and intricate
process in which schools, parents and society are all important stakeholders. This
research shows the importance of cooperation between all role players to instil values
in South Africa’s young people and that the process of value education slowly but
surely shows results.
Key concepts: values, value education, character education, youth at risk<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: “Democratic citizenship requires that people cultivate mutual respect, warmth,
friendship, trust, self-respect, dignity, generosity and compassion towards each other”
(Waghid, 2004b:536).
Suid-Afrika kom, as betreklik jong demokrasie, voor talle groot uitdagings te staan.
Die opvoeding van die jeug tot volwassenes wat hulle plek in ’n demokratiese
samelewing kan volstaan, is een van die uitdagings. ’n Demokrasie kan egter net
slaag as basiese waardes soos respek en verantwoordelikheid by landsburgers
geïnternaliseer is. Dagblaaie en nuusberigte skets ongelukkig ’n somber prentjie van
morele verval onder die Suid-Afrikaanse jeug.
In hierdie navorsing word verskillende modelle van waardeopvoeding krities
geëvalueer, om te ondersoek watter model die beste resultate behoort te lewer in die
vestiging van waardes by die jongmense van Suid-Afrika. Karakteropvoeding word
bespreek as ’n gebalanseerde en omvattende benadering tot waardeopvoeding en die
manifes oor waardes, opvoeding en demokrasie word krities bespreek om aan te toon
in watter mate dit relevant is vir waardeopvoeding in die skoolpraktyk. Die toename
van sosiale probleme soos armoede, enkelouer-gesinne en VIGS-wesies lei daartoe
dat ’n toenemende aantal Suid-Afrikaanse kinders as risiko-leerders bekend staan.
Daarom word in hierdie studie ook ondersoek ingestel na moontlike maniere waarop
opvoeders positiewe waardes by risiko-leerders kan vestig.
Die vestiging, ontwikkeling en internalisering van waardes is ’n langsame en
ingewikkelde proses waarin die skool, ouers en die gemeenskap belangrike rolspelers
is. Hierdie studie toon dat samewerking tussen die rolspelers baie belangrik is by die
vestiging van waardes by Suid-Afrikaanse jongmense, en dat die proses van
waardeopvoeding stadig maar seker resultate lewer.
Trefwoorde: waardes, waardeopvoeding, karakteropvoeding, risiko-leerders

Thesis (M.Mus)--University of Stellenbosch, 2006.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: For many decades music has been recognised as a medium for therapy. The reasons put forward include the ability of music to inspire people, to motivate, to integrate and to promote relaxation. A strong link exists between human beings and music and this can unite people from different cultures. Music is readily available everywhere. People can attend music concerts or be part of a choir or orchestra. Music is even available in homes at the press of a button.
Music therapy is a fairly new concept in which music and psychology are combined. For many years people have used music for healing. It is because music has produced such positive results in problem cases that it is being used in therapy sessions to contribute to the healing process. Although many people have an understanding of what music therapy entails, there are also those with no idea of what it entails.
This thesis is an in-depth investigation into music therapy and the possible functional outcomes thereof. The focus is on the music therapist, characteristics that the music therapist should possess, how and why music is used as medium in the therapy process, different methods of therapy and the influence thereof on problems.
The position of music therapy in the Western Cape was investigated. To arrive at a reliable conclusion in this regard, people who work with music therapy have been involved. Interviews were held with qualified and non-qualified persons who practice some form of music therapy in the Western Cape. Information from these interviews is interpreted, conveyed and recommendations are made as to the advancement of music therapy in the Western Cape.
The purpose of the investigation is to publish information regarding music therapy and the meaning thereof. The larger public must be made aware of the complementary role music therapy can play in the healing process. Eventually music therapy should take its place in health care in the Western Cape, together with other branches of the medical profession such as psychology and career therapy.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Vir dekades word musiek al as ’n medium vir terapie erken. Die redes wat hiervoor aangevoer word, is dat musiek beskik oor die vermoë om mense te inspireer, te motiveer, te integreer en om ontspanning te bevorder. Daar bestaan ’n wesenlike verband tussen die mens en musiek en as gevolg hiervan kan musiek mense van verskillende kulture byeenbring. Musiek is oral en vrylik beskikbaar. Mense kan musiekkonserte bywoon, óf deel van ’n koor óf orkes uitmaak. Musiek is selfs deur die druk van ’n knoppie in wonings beskikbaar.
Musiekterapie is ’n relatiewe nuwe begrip waartydens musiek en sielkunde gekombineer word. Vir baie jare al word musiek gebruik om te help om mense gesond te maak. Juis omdat musiek sulke positiewe resultate in probleemgevalle getoon het, word dit tydens terapiesessies gebruik om tot die genesingsproses by te dra. Alhoewel baie mense ’n begrip het van wat musiekterapie is, is daar ook diegene wat geen benul het waaroor dit gaan nie.
Hierdie tesis is ’n indringende ondersoek na musiekterapie en die moontlike funksionele uitkomste daarvan. Daar word gefokus op die musiekterapeut, eienskappe wat die musiekterapeut behoort te hê, hóé en waarom musiek as medium in die terapieproses gebruik word, verskillende terapiemetodes en hoe dit probleme beïnvloed.
Die stand van musiekterapie in die Wes-Kaap is ondersoek. Om tot ’n betroubare gevolgtrekking hieroor te kom, is persone wat gereeld met musiekterapie werk, betrek. Daar is onderhoude met gekwalifiseerde asook niegekwalifiseerde persone wat die een of ander vorm van musiekterapie in die Wes-Kaap beoefen, gevoer. Inligting bekom uit hierdie onderhoude word geïnterpreteer, oorgedra en aanbevelings oor die bevordering van musiekterapie in die Wes-Kaap word gemaak. Die doel van die ondersoek is om inligting aangaande musiekterapie sowel die betekenis daarvan bekend te maak. Die breë publiek moet bewus gemaak word van die aanvullende rol wat musiekterapie in die genesende proses kan speel. Uiteindelik behoort musiekterapie, saam met ander vertakkings van die mediese beroep soos byvoorbeeld sielkunde en beroepsterapie, sy plek in die gesondheidsorg van die Wes-Kaap in te neem.

Full textAbstract:
Thamnochortus insignis (Albertinia thatching reed) is a restio specie which is endemic in the narrow (20 km wide) coastal dune veld, from the Gouritz River in the east to the Breede River in the west (120 km). The area within this belt, where this reed is the dominant restio, covers 65 500 hectares. The culms of the reed is harvested as a natural product from the veld and used as thatch on roofs of houses. The traditional use has been as roofing material in Cape Dutch architecture. At this time, thatch roofs are regarded as a luxury commodity and are used in prestigious residential areas and also eco-friendly housing developments. The first section of the research project was based on a Delphi technique questionnaire completed first by 37 and secondly by 10 stakeholders in the industry. This group of growers, contract harvesters, crop agents and thatchers represented 80 percent percent of the estimated 2005 harvest and 87 percent of the estimated farm gate crop value. The thatching reed industry is the main agricultural enterprise situated in the coastal dune veld of the Southern Cape, i.e. 55 percent of total Gross Product Value generated by the survey respondents. The second section is based on an analysis of experimental harvest plots (50 m2), selected at random (4 replications per site) in the 2 x 3 different production systems, i.e. traditional harvest from natural veld, harvest from veld which had been subjected to mechanical injury ("sleep") and harvest from established orchard-type lands. Harvest data was collected at each site in terms of the following components, i.e. number of harvestable tussocks, circumference of tussocks and number of reed bundles (minimum circumference 210 mm, minimum length 1,2 m). The gross income per site was calculated on the basis of R1,80 per bundle (2006-price level). Economic analysis (Gross Margin above selected costs) indicates that plant density (reed tussocks/ha) is a critical factor, in order to offset the establishment cost of R2 100/ha in established lands, which is not incurred in the other two production systems. Economic returns from the first planted lands (2 100 and 2 900 plants/ha) averaged R7 666/ha against R8 781/ha for the mechanical-injury plants. However, at a density of 5 000 plants/ha, the projected Gross Margin increases to R15 765/ha. The use of mechanicalinjury and natural vegetation production systems both interfere with biodiversity and raise major concerns with regard to sustainability of the sensitive coastal dune fynbos. ANOVA-analysis of the data indicates a highly significant difference (p = 0,01) for all sites and production systems. Statistical analysis of averages indicates that mechanical injury treatment results in a significant increase in the number of tussocks, when compared to established and natural veld, respectively. The variance in the circumference of tussocks was greatest in natural veld (55 to 71 percent) and mechanical injury (54 to 61 percent). Tussocks harvested from established plantings reflected the least level of variance (28 to 38 percent). The larger reed tussocks in the established lands produced more bundles of marketable reed (8 200/ha) than the mechanical-injury (7 625/ha) and natural veld (3 450/ha) respectively. Establishment of T. insignis plantlets in an "orchard" system at spacings of 2 m x 1 m on previous winter cereal lands or old pastures, is shown to meet all the requirements within a sustainable production system, i.e. viability, productivity, environmental-friendly, risk management and social acceptance. Furthermore, the quality of the yield was in line with the proposed grading standard for thatching reed, i.e. minimum circumference 210 mm, minimum length 1,2 m and less than 6,5 percent grey culm content.

Thesis (MCUR)--University of Stellenbosch, 2004.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study attempts to provide a historic background of the clinical nurse
practitioner. Areas of potential conflict, malpractice, future research, service
delivery, tuition and support are revealed. The current role and function and
the work environment of the clinical nurse practitioner functioning on primary
health care level in the Metropole Region of the Western Cape were
examined as major themes.
Triangulation is applied as methodology. Structured questionnaires were
completed by 60 clinical nurse practitioners that completed their training
during the period 1994 to 2002. Pre-compiled checklists were completed at 8
different primary health care institutions. Qualitative data were obtained by
comments on the questionnaires, field notes, as well as structured and
unstructured interviews conducted with clinical nurse practitioners.
Needs identified include outcomes based theoretical and clinical methods of
tuition, additional training in pharmacology and chronic care, transcultural
nursing and the development of criteria for recognition of prior learning and
experience. Disparities were identified on service level pertaining to the
difference between service delivery and service needs, daily checking of
emergency equipment and the establishing of partnerships on service level to
improve service delivery. Utilisation, post-levels and remuneration need
attention.
The development of courses in pharmacology for the Western Cape is
identified as a priority as well as in service training, the possibility of a year of
internship and the expedite of the amalgamation of fragmented services.
Clinical nurse practitioners in managerial positions need to become more
involved in promotion, motivation, development, audit and marketing of the
clinical nurse practitioner and the establishment of a forum for clinical nurse
practitioners.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie poog om ʼn historiese agtergrond te skets van die kliniese
verpleegpraktisyn. Areas is blootgelê vir potensiële konflik en wanpraktyke,
sowel as areas vir toekomstige navorsing, dienslewering, onderrig en
ondersteuning. Twee hooftemas, naamlik die huidige rol en funksie, asook
die werkomgewing van die kliniese verpleegpraktisyn in die Metropoolstreek
van die Wes-Kaap, is ondersoek.
Triangulasie is as navorsingsmetodiek aangewend. Gestruktureerde vraelyste
is deur 60 kliniese verpleegpraktisyns wat hul kursus gedurende die
tydperk 1994 tot 2002 voltooi het, ingevul. Voorafopgestelde kontrolelyste
is by 8 verskillende primêre gesondheidsorginstansies aangewend.
Kwalitatiewe data is verkry deur middel van kommentaar op die vraelyste,
veldnotas, sowel as gestruktureerde en ongestruktureerde onderhoudsvoering
met kliniese verpleegpraktisyns.
Uitkomsgebaseerde teoretiese en kliniese wyses van onderrig, aanvullende
farmakologie, chroniese sorg, transkulturele verpleging, taalvaardigheid,
asook die ontwikkeling van kriteria vir akkreditasie vir voorafleer en ondervinding
blyk onderrigbehoeftes te wees. Leemtes op diensvlak sluit die
verskil tussen diensverskaffing en diensbehoeftes, daaglikse kontrolering
van noodtoerusting en vennootskappe ter diensverbetering in. Aanwending,
posbenamings en vergoeding benodig aandag.
Die ontwikkeling van aanvullende farmakologiekursusse vir die Wes-Kaap
is as prioriteit geïdentifiseer asook indiensopleiding, die moontlikheid van ʼn
verpligte internskapjaar en die bespoediging van amalgamasie van gefragmenteerde
dienste. Kliniese verpleegpraktisyns in bestuursposisies behoort
meer betrokke te raak by die bevordering, motivering, ontwikkeling,
oudit en bemarking van die kliniese verpleegpraktisyn asook by die daarstel
van ʼn forum vir kliniese verpleegkundiges.

The historical development of occupational social work international as well as the
historical development of occupational social work in the South African context was
discussed.

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In the research project reported below, the researcher investigates the shortterm effect.
of a life skills program, Free to Grow, on the self-concept and locus of control of juvenile
offenders in the Allandale-prison, by means of the following questionnaires: the Greeff
Self-concept Questionnaire, the Nowicki-Strickland Locus of Control Scale for Children
and the Desired-Undesired Eve.nts Locus of Control Scale. The life skills program is
based on experiential learning principles and focusses on self-development and the
acquisition of a wide spectrum of social skills. The 21 subjects participating in the
project were divided into two groups: The experimental group consisting of 11 subjects
participated in the program over a two week-period for altogether 32 hours, while the
remaining 10 subjects formed the control group. The most important findings of the
study were that the program participants' self-concept showed no statiscally meaningful
improvement, but their locus of control as measured by the Nowicki Strickland Locus
of Control Scale for children, made a statistically meaningful internal shift. The study
concludes with important recommendations for follow-up studies.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In die onderstaande studie is die korttermyneffek van 'n lewensvaardigheidsprogram,

die Nowicki-Strickland Lokus van Kontrole Skaal vir Kinders en die
Wenslike en Onwenslike Gebeurtenisse Lokus van Kontrole Skaal. Die program is
gebaseer op eksperensiële leerbeginsels en fokus op selfontwikkeling en die aanleer
van 'n wye spektrum van sosiale vaardighede. Die 21 subjekte wat aan die projek
deelgeneem het, is in twee groepe verdeel: Die eksperimentele groep bestaande uit 11
subjekte het oor 'n periode van twee weke vir altesaam 32 uur die program deurloop,
terwyl die oorblywende 10 subjekte die kontrolegroep gevorm het. Die belangrikste
bevindings van die studie was dat die programdeelnemers se selfkonsep nie statisties
betekenisvol verbeter het nie, maar dat hulle lokus van kontrole, soos gemeet deur die
Nowicki-Strickland Lokus van Kontrole Skaal vir Kinders, wel statisties beduidend meer
intern geword het na afloop van die program. Die studie word afgesluit met belangrike
aanbevelings vir opvolgstudies.

Curriculum 2005 was originally implemented in grade 1 in 1998. In 2002 it was implemented in grade 9. Similar problems and questions, which arose during the initial implementation, arose again during the implementation in grade 9. Implementation gave rise to many questions and uncertainties. Only in October 2001 was it finally decided to implement the curriculum for grade 9 in 2002. The result was that publishers, the national as well as provincial education departments as well as schools were not ready for the implementation in January 2002. This treatise aims to determine the amount of support offered to educators and the degree of uncertainty still being experienced by them. Information regarding these unnecertainties and problems has been obtained from educators by means of questionnaires, circulated to 38 schools in the Northern Cape Province, offering Natural Science. This sampling of schools is representative of schools offering Natural Science in the region. Data regarding the uncertainties from educators have been obtained from the SOC (Stages of Concern) questionnaires of Hall, George and Rutherford. The rest of the questionnaire concerned the biographical information regarding the educators as well as the support that educators have received during the implementation of the learning area. It emerged from the questionnaire that educators understand the importance of a new Natural Science curriculum for SA. They are however sceptical regarding the hasty manner in which the learning area was implemented; the fact that no textbooks or educational teaching aids were available prior to implementation was of concern. Educators are similarly concerned about the inadequate training prior to implementation and lack of support during implementation. Educators are also concerned about the administrative liability that the new curriculum will bring about.

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD<br>Hierdie tesis was onderneem as 'n empiriese studie wat fokus op kurrikulumimplementering in 'n afgesonderde geografiese streek in post-apartheid Suid-Afrika, bekend as die Overberg. Die identiteitsbasis waarvolgens onderwysers Kurrikulum 2005 ontvang en implementeer, dien as die sentrale fokus vir 'n onderneming van hierdie studie. My sleutelbevindinge het ek geneem op die basis van empiries- interpretatiewe tegnieke, wat insluit observasies en semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude. Hiervolgens het ek bevind dat die persoonlike, ontologiese, kontekstuele, opleiding, professionele en pedagogiese invloede, 'n impak gehad het op die samestelling van identiteitsbasis van
onderwysers in die Overbergstreek. Dié onderwysers het Kurrikulum 2005 ontvang en geïmplementeer in die lig van hul vorige identiteite. Ek het die empiriese resultate van dié studie vergelyk met die konseptuele raamwerk van my literatuur studies. Dié resultate het aangedui dat daar 'n gaping tussen 'n kurrikulumformulering en 'n kurrikulum-implementering bestaan. Dié gaping verwys na die behoefte om die 'stemme' van onderwysers op die vlak van 'n kurrikulumbeleidformulering, aan te hoor en te verreken. Die studie benut dus kwalitatiewe en
interpretiewe metodes, sodat die institusionele gedrag en stem-identiteite van onderwysers verstaan kan word. Die studie stel voor dat die impak van die onderwyser se sosio-kulturele konteks soos ingebed in hul biografieë, primêr is die vorming van hul professionele identiteitsbasis. Relevant tot dié studie, is hoe onderwysers op Kurrikulum 2005 respondeer op die basis van hul identiteite.

Thesis (MScAgric)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Lucerne is the most important pasture and fodder crop in the winter rainfall area of
South Africa. Various pests are known to cause damage to this crop. The use of the
sweep net for monitoring pests is a cheap, easy and quick technique. If the sweep net
is suitable for the lucerne pests in South Africa, potential pest status can be
determined easily and quickly and the necessary precautionary measures taken to
prevent crop losses. From a managerial point of view, it is also important to know
the composition of the insect community in order to follow practices in which the
number of beneficial insects can be increased and the injurious insects decreased.
Therefore a study was done to quantify the use of the sweep net as a survey
technique for monitoring pests on established lucerne stands. Insect diversity was
also determined to obtain information on the insect families and guilds on lucerne.
The redlegged earth mite, due to its importance as a pest, and the Anystis mite,
important as a predator, were also included.
The sweep net proved to be suitable for the sampling of the main lucerne pests. If a
29 cm diameter sweep net is swiped once per pace for six long paces, twelve
systematically chosen sampling units are recommended for the lucerne earth flea and
aphids. It is not necessary to differentiate amongst the three aphid species, or
between the winged and unwinged aphids. Actual counts should be used instead of
absence-presence data. Instead of counting all the insects in a sample, sub-samples
can be taken. Operational characteristic curves can be used to determine the risk
involved in the decision not to intervene, for example by spraying or grazing.
Recommendations for monitoring and the accuracy of control decisions for the
redlegged earth mite, Sitona weevil and lucerne butterfly can only be made after
threshold values have been determined.
The pea aphid, bluegreen aphid and lucerne earth flea showed peaks in their
population levels during spring. Peak numbers of the spotted alfalfa aphid occurred
during late summer and autumn. The Sitona weevil and lucerne butterfly numbers
reached peak levels during late spring and early summer. For all pests population levels were dramatically reduced after grazing or cutting of the plantings. Therefore,
these cultivation practices provided good control.
The herbivores made up more than 85% of the insect community in lucerne. The
largest herbivorous families, in terms of the number of individuals per family, were
the Aphididae and Sminthuridae. These two families contain the main lucerne pests,
the pea aphid, bluegreen aphid, spotted alfalfa aphid and the lucerne earth flea. The
largest predatory family was the Anystidae, represented by the Anystis mite, the
most important predator of the red legged earth mite and lucerne earth flea. Another
well represented predatory family was the Coccinellidae, containing natural enemies
of the aphids. The dryland plantings had a higher percentage of predators than the
irrigated lucerne.
The most important parasitaids were those in the superfamily Chalcidoidea and in
the family Braconidae. The main detritivores were springtails in the suborder
Arthropleona, insects in the families Mycetophilidae on irrigated lucerne, and
Mycetophagidae on dryland lucerne. The most abundant visitors were in the families
Chironomidae, Drosophilidae and Tephritidae. The dryland plantings had a lower
percentage of visitors than the irrigated plantings.
The number of insect families, as well as the number of individuals per family, was
lower at the dryland plantings than at the irrigated plantings. The vast majority of
insect families found on lucerne were collected during the one-year sampling period.
A lower diversity was found where grazing was more severe, and there was a
negative relationship between diversity and evenness.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Lusern is die belangrikste wei- en voergewas 10 die winterreëngebied van Suid-
Afrika. Hierdie gewas word deur 'n verskeidenheid plae aangeval. Die gebruik van
die swaainet vir die monitering van plae is 'n goedkoop, maklike en vinnige tegniek.
lndien die swaainet geskik is vir die betrokke plae in Suid-Afrika, kan potensiële
plaagstatus van die plae dus maklik en vinnig bepaal word en die nodige
voorsorgmaatreëls getref word om verliese te voorkom. Vanuit 'n bestuursoogpunt
is dit ook belangrik om te weet wat die samestelling van die insekgemeenskap is
sodat praktyke gevolg kan word waardeur die getal voordelige insekte verhoog en
nadelige insekte verlaag word. Gevolglik is 'n studie uitgevoer om die gebruik van
die swaainet te kwantifiseer as 'n monsternemingsmetode vir die monitering van plae
op gevestigde lusernstande. Insekdiversiteit is ook bepaal ten einde inligting te
bekom oor die insekfamilies en -gildes op lusern. Die lusernerdvlooi en
swartsandmyt, vanweë hul belang as plae, en die Anystis-roofmyt, vanweë sy belang
as predator, is ook ingesluit.
Die swaainet blyk geskik te wees vir die monitering van die. vernaamste lusernplae.
Wanneer 'n 29 cm deursnee swaainet vir ses lang treë een keer per tree geswaai
word, word 12 sistematies gekose steekproefnemingseenhede vir die lusernerdvlooi
en plantluise aanbeveel. Daar hoef nie onderskeid tussen die plantluisspesies en
tussen gevleuelde en ongevleuelde plantluise getref te word nie. Daar moet gebruik
gemaak word van werklike insektellings en nie van aanwesigheid-afwesigheid data
nie. In plaas van om al die insekte in 'n monster te tel, kan submonsters geneem
word. Operasionele karakteristieke kurwes kan gebruik word om die risiko verbonde
aan die besluit om nie op te tree, deur byvoorbeeld te spuit of bewei nie, te bepaal.
Vir die swartsandmyt, Sitona-snuitkewer en lusernskoenlapper moet drempelwaardes
eers vasgestel word voordat aanbevelings vir monitering en die akkuraatheid van
besluite rakende beheer, gegee kan word.
Vir die ertjieluis, blougroenluis en lusernerdvlooi het die bevolkingsvlakke 'n piek in
die lente bereik. Die gevlekte lusernluis se piekgetalle was hoofsaaklik in die laat
somer en herfs. Die Sitona-snuitkewer en lusernskoenlapper het piekgetalle gehad in die laat lente en vroeë somer. Vir al die plae het bevolkingspieke drasties afgeneem
nadat die aanplantings bewei of gesny is. Hierdie verbouingspraktyke blyk dus goeie
beheer te verskaf.
Die herbivore op lusern het meer as 85% van die insekgemeenskap beslaan. Die
grootste herbivoorfamilies, in terme van aantal individue per familie, was die
Aphididae en Sminthuridae. Hierdie twee families bevat die vernaamste lusernplae,
naamlik die ertjieluis, blougroenluis, gevlekte lusernluis en lusernerdvlooi. Die
grootste predatoriese familie was die Anystidae, wat verteenwoordig is deur die
Anystis-roofmyt. 'n belangrike predator van die swartsandmyt en lusernerdvlooi.
Nog 'n predatoriese familie wat goed verteenwoordig was, was die Coccinellidae,
natuurlike vyande van plantluise. Die droëland aanplantings het 'n hoër persentasie
predatore gehad as die besproeide lusern.
Die belangrikste parasitoïede aanwesig was dié in die superfamilie Chalcidoidea en
familie Braconidae. Die vernaamste detritivore was erdvlooie in die suborde
Arthropleona, insekte in die families Mycetophilidae by besproeide lusern, en
Mycetophagidae by droëland lusern. Die volopste besoekers was lede van die
families Chironomidae, Drosophilidae en Tephritidae. Die droëland aanplantings het
'n laer persentasie besoekers gehad as die besproeide lusern.
Die aantal insekfamilies, asook die aantal individue per familie, was laer by die
droëland aanplantings as by die besproeide aanplantings. Die oorgrote meerderheid
insekfamilies wat op lusern voorkom, is gedurende die een jaar opnameperiode
waargeneem. 'n Laer insekdiversiteit is gevind waar beweiding strawwer was, en
daar was 'n negatiewe verband tussen diversiteit en gelykmatigheid.

Thesis (M Sport Sc (Sport Science))--Stellenbosch University, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Adolescence is the period between childhood and adulthood. This phase starts between
the ages of 11 and 13 years and ends between 17 and 21 years. Adolescence was seen as
a phase of development, growth and excellent health in the past, but that is not the case
in the 21st century. The health of adolescent are being influenced by technology such as
computers and televisions, crime, poor eating habits, the absence of Physical Education
at schools, urbanization, overpopulation and less available space for children to play.
These aspects lead to a sedentary lifestyle which may impact their health in the form of
hypokinetic diseases.
The primary aim of this study was to determine the lifestyle patterns of adolescents in
selected Western Cape high schools. The secondary aims of this study were to
determine the lifestyle patterns of different ethnic groups; those of boys and girls; and to
compare these lifestyle patterns with those of adolescents 10 years ago. In this study,
two questionnaires were used for data collection: a questionnaire for the adolescents;
and one for the Life Orientation teachers.
The high schools (N=30) were randomly selected to partake in the study. Out of each
school learners (N=60) were also randomly selected to partake in the study. The 60
learners consisted of [n=15] boys and [n=15] girls in Grade 9 and [n=15] boys and
[n=15] girls in Grade 11 between the ages of 15 and 17 years. One Life Orientation
teacher was also randomly selected from each school.
Data from the two questionnaires were coded in computer format and statistically
analysed with the computer program Stasoft Statistica Version 10.
From the results of the study it can be concluded that neither White nor Coloured
adolescents found school sport important nor they did not partake in sporting activities
on a regular basis. Adolescent boys, on the other hand, were found to be much more
active than adolescent girls. Adolescent girls preferred sedentary activities like listening
to music and reading books. Both White and Coloured adolescents, and boys and girls,
found their health to be excellent despite the fact that research showed the opposite to
be true. White adolescents also found socialising more important than Coloured
adolescents. Coloured adolescent on the other hand found household chores more
important. Boys and Coloured adolescents attended self defence classes on a regular
basis. This study is a follow-up study on one conducted by Van Deventer in 1999. It serves as
a basis for further research and it is recommended that a new study should be conducted
every 10 years to determine changes in the lifestyle patterns of adolescents so that it can
be addressed.
Further research is recommended because of the low feedback of Life Orientation
teachers to determine and address the status of Life Orientation presently in schools, the
attitudes of teachers and learners toward Life Orientation, Education and training of
Life Orientation teachers, apparatus and facilities needs and time allocation towards the
movement component in Life Orientation.
Further research is also recommended because of the insufficient feedback received
from Black learners. It is also important to determine their lifestyle patterns so that
recommendations in this regard can be made.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Adolessensie is die periode tussen die kinderjare en volwassenheid. Die fase begin
tussen die ouderdomme van 11 en 13 jaar en eindig tussen 17 en 21 jaar. Adolessensie
is vroeër as 'n fase van groei, ontwikkeling en goeie gesondheid beskou maar dit is nie
meer die geval nie. Adolessente se gesondheid word huidig deur beskikbare tegnologie
soos televisie en rekenaars, vervoer, misdaad, verstedeliking, minder sportgronde as
gevolg van oorbevolking, gebrekkige Liggaamlike Opvoeding by skole en ongesonde
eetgewoontes belemmer. Dit kan tot sedentêre leefstylpatrone aanleiding gee wat
hipokinetiese siektes kan meebring.
Die hoofdoel van die studie was om die leefstylpatrone van adolessente in geselekteerde
hoërskole van die Wes-Kaapse Onderwysdepartement te bepaal. Daar was ook op die
volgende subprobleme gefokus: die vergelyking van die leefstylpatrone van
verskillende etniese groepe, die vergelyking van die leefstylpatrone van seuns en
meisies en die vergelyking van die leefstylpatrone van huidige adolessente met dié van
10 jaar gelede. Twee vraelyste was vir die insameling van die data gebruik. Een wat
leerders en die ander die Lewensoriëntering-onderwyser voltooi het.
Die hoërskole (N=30) was ewekansig geselekteer. Uit elke hoërskool was leerders
(N=60) ewekansig: uit Graad 9 [n=15] seuns en [n=15] meisies en uit Graad 11 [n=15]
seuns en [n=15] meisies tussen die ouderdomme van 15 en 17 geselekteer. Een
Lewensoriëntering-onderwyser per skool was ook ewekansig geselekteer.
Die data wat vanaf die vraelyste verkry was, is in rekenaarformaat gekodeer en statisties
verwerk. Stasoft Statistica Weergawe 10 is vir verdere dataverwerking gebruik.
Daar is tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat beide Wit en Bruin adolessente sport as
onbelangrik geag het en ongereeld daaraan deelneem het. Adolessente seuns het sport
belangriker geag en ook meer gereeld as adolessente meisies daaraan deelgeneem.
Adolessente meisies het sedentêre aktiwiteite, soos om te lees en na musiek te luister,
belangriker as adolessente seuns geag. Wit en Bruin adolessente, en die seuns en
meisies, het hul gesondheid goed geag al bewys navorsing die teendeel. Wit adolessente
het meer as Bruin adolessente gesosialiseer, terwyl Bruin adolessente huishoudelike
take belangriker as Wit adolessente geag het. Adolessente seuns en Bruin adolessente
het gereeld selfverdedigingsklasse bygewoon. Die onderhawige studie is 'n opvolgstudie wat deur Van Deventer in 1999 uitgevoer is
en dien as rigtingwyser vir verdere navorsing. 'n Opvolgstudie elke 10 jaar is ideaal
sodat die veranderinge in leefstylpatrone onder adolessente gemonitor en aangespreek
kan word.
Verdere navorsing word as gevolg van die lae terugvoersyfer van Lewensoriënteringonderwysers
aanbeveel sodat die volgende aangespreek kan word: die status wat
Lewensoriëntering huidig geniet; die gesindheid van onderwysers en leerders teenoor
Lewensoriëntering; onderwyseropleiding; apparaat en fasiliteit behoeftes; en die
tydstoekenning vir die bewegingskomponent van Lewensoriëntering.
Verdere navorsing word as gevolg van die lae terugvoersyfer van Swart adolessente
aanbeveel sodat hul leefstylpatrone ook bepaal en aanbevelings daarvolgens gemaak
kan word.

Thesis (MMus (Music))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Kersfeesorkeste is ‟n Christelike tradisie binne die Kleurling-gemeenskap van die Wes-Kaap wat dissipline en goeie waardes by lede van hierdie gemeenskap inboesem en musiek in voorheen benadeelde en minderbevoorregte sektore van die samelewing bevorder. Die geskiedenis en agtergrond van die Kersfeesorkeste is soortgelyk aan dié van die Kaapse Klopse en die Maleierkore, wat veral prominent na vore kom tydens die Kersfees- en Nuwejaarsfeestelikhede in die Kaap. Alhoewel hierdie drie groepe ‟n nou verbintenis tot mekaar het en dikwels deur die publiek saamgroepeer word, funksioneer hulle onafhanklik van mekaar en is daar beduidende verskille in kultuur, repertoire, kleredrag, organisatoriese struktuur en samestelling.
Hierdie studie fokus op die Perseverance Kersfeesorkes en ondersoek dié orkes in sy vele fasette binne die raamwerk van wat in die musiekwetenskap deesdae “gemeenskapsmusiek” genoem word. Die kenmerke van die begrip “gemeenskapsmusiek”, soos dit in die laaste 15 jaar in ander lande geformuleer is, word aan die hand van die Perseverance Kersfeesorkes getoets om uit te vind of die Perseverance Kersfeesorkes as ‟n voorbeeld van gemeenskapsmusiek beskou kan word en, omgekeerd, of die begrip “gemeenskapsmusiek” aan die hand van hierdie geval in alle opsigte gepas is of dalk aangepas moet word.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Christmas Bands are a Christian tradition within the Coloured community of the Western Cape that instils discipline and values amongst members of this community and promotes music within previously disadvantaged and under-privileged sectors of society. The history and background of the Christmas Bands is similar to that of the Cape Minstrels and Malay Choirs, who are very prominent during the Christmas and New Year festivities in the Cape. Although these three groups have a close connection they function independently of each other. There are significant differences amongst these groups in respect of culture, repertoire, uniform, organisational structure and composition.
This study focuses on the Perseverance Christmas Band and examines this band in all its different facets within the framework of what, in current musicological terminology, is called “community music”. The characteristics of the concept of community music, as they have been formulated in other countries over the last 15 years, are tested against the Perseverance Christmas Band to determine whether the Perseverance Christmas Band should be understood as a example of community music and, vice versa, whether the concept of community music itself is valid when measured against the Perseverance Christmas Band or whether it needs adjustment or expansion.

Hierdie studie was gemotiveer deur 'n toenemende bewuswording dat afknouery in
Suid-Afrikaanse hoer- en laerskole emstige afrnetings aangeneem het - soos blyk uit
die daaglikse verslaggewing in die media. Die doel van die studie is om die aard en

asook om die bestaande maatreels te evalueer wat in die skool geYmplementeer word
om die effek van die verskynsel te voorkom en in toom te hou.
In die literatuurstudie het ek daarop gekonsentreer om 'n historiese agtergrond van die
fenomeen deur te gee, asook om die mening van kundiges op die gebied oor wat
afknouery behels, die oorsake en gevolge daarvan en moontlike maniere om die

eerste in alle ems in Noorwee en Swede 'n aanvang geneem en is later uitgebrei na
antler lande. In Suid-Afrika is die fenomeen tans relatief min nagevors. Oor die

An equally valid question today should be whether theSwedish Armed Forces are sufficiently nationally / internally interoperable, between their branchesof service, to be able to conduct independent operations based on the joint warfare theory.The lack of ability to joint warfare in the armed forces in general and the Swedish Armed Forcesspecially constitutes the essay´s fundamental problem. By using Codners and Sjöbloms custominteroperability theory, the Swedish Armed Forces documents were analyzed to highlight anyweaknesses related to joint warfare and national interoperability between Ground and Air Forces.The survey shows weaknesses linked to the custom theory and Swedish Armed Forces governingdocuments. The ability of a national interoperability is limited between Ground and Air Forcestoday, mostly because of weaknesses in the Swedish Armed Forces strategic concept which doesnot describe the importance of joint warfare at all levels sufficiently. This leads to deficienciesreflected in doctrines, regulations, technology, techniques and exercises. Lack of common documents,techniques, methods and exercises in turn affects armed services understanding of theirdifferent backgrounds and unique perspectives. The result will therefore be low national interoperabilityamong the armed services.

Thesis (MEd)--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The reseach in this study focusses on how teachers express the forming of a role-identity amid historically disadvantage circumstances. The lense used to highlight and understand the underlying relationship between role-identity and school culture, is school context. The focus is on the biography and professional training of respondents in order to determine how teachers mediate their professional roles.
We must understand teachers within the boundaries of a socio-cultural context, their biography and professional training. These factors, which contribute to the forming of role-identity, can negatively affect the receiving and implementation of policy. The assumption made by this study, is that there is a gap between transformation policies and school culture, which has an influence on the role of the teacher. A better understanding of teacher circumstances can inspire a multi-dimensional approach to teaching. The result was that my thesis tried to generate empirical evidence to understand teachers in under-privilege schools more fully.
Teachers develop their self-identity within the framework of experience and expectations about themselves and their teaching. The professional identity of teachers consists of being skilled in subject area, level of training, preparedness and formal qualifications. Respondents construct their one-dimensional professional identity within an under-privilege context. The school climate hinders the simultaneous execution of the three roles that I refer to in this study. Some of the hindrance factors are the manner in which the school accepts the lack of learning area knowledge, racism and the abuse of contact time. Poor management and lack of community control, tolerates the shortcomings and one-dimensional approach of teachers.
The study makes use of a theoretical framework, supported by literature. I used qualitative indepth-investigation for the collection of data. I used semi-structured interviews as an instrument to answer the research question and to achieve the proposed outcomes.
I achieved my main finding by using empirical-interpretive techniques. The finding was that personal socialisation and professional training, together with contextual factors influence the foundation of teacher identity. The base identity is the foundation upon which teachers formulate their role-identity.
My research shows how the respondents position themselves in relation to the prescribed teacher roles. Their identity forming takes places within the context of under-privilege circumstances, moral diffusion and transformation in education. I describe the construction of their conceptual space of role-identity. I furthermore present analyses of how the respondents form their role-identity. I base the most important finding of this study on one-dimensionality. Each of the selected teachers expresses their professional mediation of their roles within the context of a specific exposed school culture. The study shows the complex variations of this one-dimensionality amongst the four teachers.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die navorsing in hierdie studie konsentreer op hoe onderwysers gestalte gee aan hulle identiteitsvorming te midde van histories benadeelde omstandighede. Skoolkonteks is die lens wat gebruik word om die onderliggende verwantskap tussen rol-identiteit en skoolkultuur te verstaan. Die fokus is op respondente se biografië en professionele opleiding ten einde vas te stel hoe hulle die voorgeskrewe onderwyserrolle medieër.
Onderwysers moet verstaan word binne die grense van 'n sosio-kulturele konteks, hulle biografiese verhale en professionele opleiding. Hierdie faktore is bydraende aspekte wat 'n invloed het tydens die vorming van rol-identiteit, sowel as tydens die ontvang en implementering van beleide. Die aanname wat deur hierdie studie gemaak word, is dat daar 'n gaping tussen hervormingsbeleide en skoolkultuur bestaan wat die rol-identiteit van die onderwyser beїnvloed. 'n Beter begrip van onderwyser-omstandighede, kan 'n multi-dimensionele benadering tot onderwys inspireer. Gevolglik het my tesis gepoog om empiriese bewyse te genereer wat kan bydrae tot 'n vollediger begrip van onderwysers in minder-bevoorregte skole.
Onderwysers ontwikkel 'n self-identiteit binne die raamwerk van ervarings en verwagtinge oor hulleself en hulle onderrig. Die professionele identiteit van die onderwyser bestaan uit vaardigheid op vakgebied, vlak van opleiding, voorbereiding en formele kwalifikasie. Binne die minder-bevoorregte konteks waarin hierdie respondente onderrig, konstrueer hulle 'n een-dimensionele professionele identiteit. Die skoolklimaat belemmer die gelyktydige uitvoering van veral die drie rolle waarna ek in hierdie studie verwys. Sommige van die belemmerende faktore waarna verwys word, is die skool se gelate aanvaarding van gebrek aan leerarea kennis, rasisme en die misbruik van onderrigtyd. Gebrekkige bestuur en gemeenskapsbeheer vergemaklik verder die onderwyser se tekortkominge en een-dimensionele benadering.
My studie word onderskraag deur 'n teoretiese raamwerk wat met behulp van literatuurwerke saamgestel is. Die proses van data-insameling is met die hulp van 'n kwalitatiewe indiepte-ondersoek gedoen. Die semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude wat gevoer was, het gedien as instrument ter beantwoording van die navorsingsvraag ten einde die beoogde doelstellings te bereik. My kern bevindinge het ek verkry vanuit empiriese-interpretatiewe tegnieke. Hiervolgens is bevind dat persoonlike sosialisering en professionele opleiding tesame met kontekstuele faktore, 'n invloed het op die samestelling van die identiteitsbasis van die onderwyser. Hierdie identiteitsbasis vorm die grondslag waarop onderwysers hulle rol-identiteit formuleer.
My navorsing wys hoe die onderwysers in my studie hulleself posisioneer in verhouding tot hulle voorgeskrewe onderwyserrolle. Hulle identiteitsvorming geskied binne die konteks van minder-bevoorregte omstandighede, morele diffusie en onderwys transformasie. Ek beskryf hierdie konstruksie as hulle konseptuele ruimte van rol-identiteitsvorming. Verder bied hierdie studie 'n analise van hoe respondente hulle rol-identiteit vorm. Die vernaamste bevinding van hierdie studie is dat die geselekteerde onderwysers elk op 'n een-dimensionele basis uiting gee aan 'n professionele medieëring van hulle rolle binne hierdie skool se kultuur. Die studie wys die komplekse variasies van een-dimensionaliteit onder die vier onderwysers.

Thesis (MCur)--Stellenbosch University, 2003<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: It appears that registered midwives prefer not to cut episiotomies which results in an
increase in perineal tears. This may be the case as a result of current controversies
regarding episiotomies, lack of suturing skills due to insufficient training and
evaluation, or the fact that the necessity of an episiotomy are not recognised
timeously. In light of this the incidence of perineal trauma during deliveries in public
healthcare institutions in the Western Cape was evaluated from a nursing
perspective. The midwife can playa significant role in the prevention of unnecessary
perineal trauma by applying particular precautions in practice.
Triangulation was used as the research method. Seven public healthcare institutions
in the Western Cape were included in this study. Nurses completed 45
questionnaires while 33 deliveries and 25 cases of suturing of perineal wounds were
evaluated according to a pre-compiled checklist. Semi-structured interviews were
conducted with registered midwives and medical practitioners involved in the training
of nursing students.
According to findings it appears that nurses do not recognise the risk factors to be
contributory causes of perineal tears. Furthermore, it appeared that 46% of
registered midwives did not feel competent enough to suture perineal wounds.
Disparities were identified pertaining to the training of student nurses as well as the
continuous training and evaluation of registered midwives regarding the suturing of
perineal wounds.
It is recommended that a uniform policy should be formulated concerning guidelines
for the cut and suturing of episiotomies and lacerations. Furthermore, a uniform
classification system regarding perineal trauma should be formulated as well as a
uniform system to evaluate the competency of midwives.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Dit blyk dat geregistreerde vroedvroue nie graag 'n episiotomie knip nie, met 'n
gevolglike toename in perineale skeure. Dit is moontlik as gevolg van die huidige
kontroversie betreffende episiotomies, óf hegtingsvaardighede wat nie voldoende is nie
te wyte aan gebrekkige opleiding en evaluering, óf die noodsaaklikheid van 'n
episiotomie word nie betyds ingesien nie. In die lig hiervan is die voorkoms van
perineale trauma tydens verlossings in openbare gesondheidsinstellings in die Wes-
Kaap vanuit 'n verpleegkundige perspektief geëvalueer. Die vroedvrou kan 'n
beduidende rol speel in die voorkoming van onnodige perineale trauma deur die
toepassing van sekere maatreëls in haar praktykvoering.
Triangulasie is as navorsingsmetode gebruik. Sewe openbare gesondheidsinstellings in
die Wes-Kaap is in hierdie studie ingesluit. Vyf-en-veertig vraelyste is deur
verpleegkundiges voltooi terwyl 33 bevallings en 25 hegtings van perineale wonde
volgens 'n voorafopgestelde kontrolelys geëvalueer is. Semi-gestruktureerde
onderhoude is gevoer met geregistreerde vroedvroue en geneeshere wat by die
opleiding van verpleegstudente betrokke is.
Volgens die bevindings blyk dit dat verpleegkundiges nie die risikofaktore as
aanleidende oorsake van perineale skeure herken nie. Hulle verkies ook om nie
episiotomies te knip nie en sal eerder 'n perineale skeur heg. Dit het verder geblyk dat
46% van die geregistreerde vroedvroue nie bevoeg gevoel het om perineale wonde te
heg nie.
Leemtes is geïdentifiseer ten opsigte van die opleiding van studentverpleegkundiges
asook voortgesette opleiding en evaluering van geregistreerde vroedvroue ten opsigte
van hegtingstegnieke.
Aanbevelings sluit in dat 'n eenvormige beleid geformuleer moet word ten opsigte van
die riglyne vir die knip en hegtings van episiotomies en skeure, 'n eenvorminge
klassifikasiesisteem van perineale trauma asook 'n stelsel van evaluering van
geregistreerde vroedvroue se bevoegdheid.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Before 1930 the marketing of most agricultural products took place in a market
environment. The agricultural marketing boards were establish in 1930, for example the
Wheat Board and Maize Board. The Maize Board was establish in 1931 as a advisory
board for the Government on marketing of maize. The need for a Maize Board was due to
the shortfalls in marketing of maize. The most important shortfalls were the lack of
marketing information and a mechanism to manage price risks, as well as price
fluctuations.
On the 2 October 1996 an Act on the Marketing of Agricultural Products Act 47 of 1996
was published in the Government Gazette. With this act the deregulation of the
Agricultural Marketing Boards started. The cause of this was that agricultural products
were back in a market environment. The act have specific aims, namely the increasing of
market involvement for all roleplayers, the promotion of the efficiency of the marketing of
agricultural products, the optimizing of export turnover for agricultural products and the
strengthening of the viability of the agricultural sector.
Naisbitt and Aburdene (1990:96) documented the folowing as one of the international
trends (Megatrends): "The world is undergoing a profound shift from economies run by
governments to economies run by markets".
The efficiency of a market economy is illustrated in China: Only four percent of the arable
land of China is cultivated by small farmers. The rest of the arable land is governmentowned
farms. The Chinese government is slowly doing away with these government farms.
The small farmers, their workers and their dependents make up 800 million people. They
produced a third of the meat and milk and half of China's potatoes (Naisbitt & Aburdene,
1990:104).
The producers in the Western Cape are not use to the situation as it was before 1930. The
free market is an unknown territory for them. All the roleplayers in the market need to
develop skills to train the producers on risk involved with this market environment. The
author hope to help the process on the way with this thesis.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die bemarking van die meeste landbouprodukte het tot ongeveer 1930 in 'n
markomgewing plaasgevind. Vanaf 1930 is landboubemarkingsrade ingestel, waarvan die
Mielieraad en Koringraad enkeles is. Die Mielieraad is in 1931 gestig, aanvanklik as 'n
adviesraad vir die Regering omtrent die bemarking van mielies. Die behoefte aan die
Mielieadviesraad het ontstaan vanweë gebreke in die mark. Die vernaamste gebreke was
onder andere gebrekkige markinligting, die afwesigheid van meganismes om prysrisiko
mee te bestuur en prysskommelinge wat buite verhouding was. Die gevolg van die instelling
van die Mielie-adviesraad was die omvorming daarvan na die Mielieraad in 1945. Die
Mielieraad was beklee met statutêre bemarkingsbevoegdhede.
Op 2 Oktober 1996 is die Wet op Bemarking van Landbouprodukte Wet 47 van 1996 in die
Staatskoerant gepubliseer. Hierdie wet maak voorsiening vir die deregulering van die
Landboubemarkingsrade. Die gevolg hiervan is dat die bemarking van Landbouprodukte
weer in 'n markomgewing geplaas word soos voor 1930. Die wet het bepaalde oogmerke,
naamlik die vergroting van marktoegang vir alle markdeelnemers, die bevordering van die
doeltreffendheid van die bemarking van landbouprodukte, die optimalisering van
uitvoerverdienste vir landbouprodukte en die versterking van die lewensvatbaarheid van
die landbousektor.
Die bevryding van die bemarking van landbouprodukte plaas die Suid-Afrikaanse
landboubedryf midde-in 'n markomgewing. Naisbitt en Aburdene (1990:96) dokumenteer
juis bogenoemde as een van die internasionale neigings ("Megatrends") wanneer hul skryf:
"The world is undergoing a profound shift from economies run by governments to
economies run by markets ".
Die doelmatigheid van 'n markekonomie word geïllustreer deur China as 'n voorbeeld te
gebruik: Slegs vier persent van die bewerkbare oppervlakte van China word bewerk as
kleinboere. Die res van die bewerkbare grond word deur staatsbeheerde boerderye bewerk.
Die Chinese regering is toenemend besig om weg te doen met staatsbeheerde boerdery. Die
kleinboere, hulle werkers en hulle afhanklikes verteenwoordig 800 miljoen mense. Hulle
produseer 'n derde van China se vleis en melk en die helfte van die aartappels verbruik, dit
op slegs vier persent van die bewerkbare oppervlakte (Naisbitt & Aburdene, 1990:104).
Produsente in die Wes-Kaap wat aan die omstandighede soos voor 1930 gewoond was, is
dun gesaai. Daar is dus boere wat onbekend is aan 'n vrye markomgewing. 'n Groot
opvoedingstaak rus op die skouers van rolspelers in die mark om produsente so op te lei en
die regte leiding te gee, dat hul voorberei kan wees op al die risiko's wat saam met
deregulering gekom het. Die skrywer hoop om met hierdie werkstuk 'n klein bydrae te
lewer om hierdie proses aan te help.

Thesis (MTech (Agriculture))--Cape Technikon, 1998.<br>The drymatter - and animal production of nine lucerne cultivars were evaluated under dryland
conditions with SA Mutton Merino sheep at Outeniqua Experimental Farm (George).
The nine lucerne cultivars that were chosen for this experiment, were already evaluated in cutting
trials for their drymatter production. They consist of one winterdormant cultivar (Alfagraze), two
semi-winterdormant cultivars (WL 320 and Meteor), five intermediate-winterdormant cultivars (SA
Standard, Standard Tygerhoek, Aurora, Diamond and WL Southern Special) and one winteractive
cultivar (Cuf 101).
The mild climate of this area resulted mainly in a difference in drymatter production between the
most winterdormant cultivar (Alfagraze) and winteractive cultivar (Cuf 101). The only difference in the rate of production of winterdormant types appear in winter and spring. The
production rate of the winterdormant and semi-winterdormant cultivars was lower in the winter than
that of the intermediate winterdormant (WL Southern Special) and the winteractive cultivar (Cuf
101). The drymatter production of the semi-winterdormant cultivar (WL 320) was higher than that
of the winteractive cultivar (Cuf 101) in spring.
There is a seasonal difference in the drymatter production of lucerne cultivars from the same
winterdormancy class. Some of the more winterdormant cultivars also achieve a comparable and
even higher dry matter production than that of the more winteractive cultivars. This tendancy is
prominant between the semi-winterdormant cultivars (WL 320 and Meteor). WL 320 has a higher
dry matter production than Meteor. It also has a higher or equal production rate, dependant on the
seasons, than the winteractive cultivar (Cuf 101). A similar tendancy appears in the intermediatewinterdormant
cultivar (WL Southern Special). The seasonal drymatter production and production
rate of this cultivar are the same as that of Cuf 101. The appearance of annual grasses and weeds had a seasonal influence on the availability of dry
matter and animal production. The grass production increases over the years resulting in up to 20%
increase of the green matter during winter and spring. The grazing capacity of the winterdormant
cultivar (Alfagraze) has increased during this seasonal grass production.
The lucerne cultivar with the highest drymatter production rate and the highest seasonal dry matter
production, also had the highest grazing capacity. The yearly and seasonal grazing capacity of WL 320, Aurora, WL Southern Special and Cuf 101 was generally higher than most of the other
cultivars. This was also the most important reason for the high live mass increase with these
cultivars.

Thesis (MPA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Land is a precious resource that forms the basis of our security, pride and history. The
ownership and use of land have always played an important role in the shaping of all political,
economic and social processes in South Africa. Therefore it is a very sensitive issue for all
South Africans. Colonialism and the Apartheid policy deprived the majority of South
Africans of the right to own land or took away their land, and this contributed to the large
degree of prevailing poverty, especially of the rural black population.
One of the primary purposes of the first democratic government, elected in 1994, was to
introduce land reform that would return 30% of all agricultural land to the previously
deprived population.
The purpose of this study is to research the government policy, and prevailing theories, on
land reform, and the impact of this policy on the socio-economic development of the Cradock
and Somerset East districts of the Eastern Cape. The current power behind the new land
policy is the land reform programme, which consists of redistribution, security of tenure and
land restitution. Land reform means, among other things, the redistribution of land with the
main objectives of achieving socio-economic development and reducing poverty.
From the research it transpired that land reform is a complex issue with widely divergent
opinions. The Government itself changed its policy since 1994, and the World Bank has also
change its policy. Of the burning issues are: must land reform mainly deal with land
restitution, or rather with socio-economic development; is commercial farming on large farms
better for land restitution, or small scale farming on small farms; is the capitalistic viewpoint
driven by the market mechanism the best, or a more socialistic approach; is communal
ownership of land better than individual ownership; should only applicants with farming
experience be considered or also people with no experience? All these issues have
proponents, mostly it seams as if compromises between these viewpoints would yield the best
results.
From the case studies, as well as the literature and interviews, it transpired that support
services for emerging farmers are of prime importance. Mentors that assist emerging farmers
could make a positive contribution. Existing commercial farmers should also be involved as
advisers. It also seemed as if it was very difficult for large groups of unrelated beneficiaries to
successfully work on one farm. The success of the policy does not only depend on the mere access to land, as the quality of
life and potential job opportunities can only be increased by the provision of support services,
infrastructure and other development programmes, which result from land reform. This
requires a cooperative partnership between national, provincial and local governments.
The socio-economic analysis revealed that there are large scale poverty and unemployment in
the districts of Cradock and Somerset East. Although the rural population is on the decline,
there still are large rural black and coloured populations that may benefit from land
restitution. However, because of the dry climate and poor soil quality, it is unlikely that many
of these households could be helped by means of land restitution to escape from poverty.
Opinions of experts on the degree to which land reform contributed towards socio-economic
development, are divided. It seems that projects where upcoming farmers are assisted by a
mentor, or where a small number of beneficiaries, related to each other, are farming together,
have a greater chance of succeeding.
However, for the land reform programme to meet its objectives, it is important to formulate an
adequate land policy to ensure peace, reconciliation and national stability. Without these
aspects, economic growth and secure livelihoods cannot be ensured. Effective land
programmes can contribute directly to increased production and the reduction of poverty, but
only if implemented correctly. Land forms the corner stone of development, but cannot be
used or maintained as the only way to decrease or eliminate poverty.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Grond is 'n kosbare hulpbron wat nie net die basis van welvaart vorm nie, maar ook van
sekuriteit, trots en geskiedenis. Die eienaarskap en gebruik van grond het nog altyd 'n
belangrike rol gespeel in die politieke, ekonomiese en sosiale prosesse van 'n land. Gevolglik
is dit ook 'n sensitiewe kwessie vir alle Suid-Afrikaners. Kolonisasie en die Apartheidsbeleid
het die meerderheid Suid-Afrikaners ontneem van die reg om grond te besit of hul grond
afgeneem, wat bygedra het tot die grootskaalse armoede van veral die landelike swart
bevolking.
Een van die belangrike doeleindes van die eerste demokratiese regering wat in 1994 verkies
is, was om grondhervorming in te stel wat 30% van alle landbougrond weer aan die voorheen
benadeelde sektor van die bevolking sou teruggee.
Die doel van die werkstuk is om die beleid van die regering, en die teorieë, oor
grondhervorming na te gaan en om die potensiële impak van dié beleid op sosio-ekonomiese
ontwikkeling van die Cradock en Somerset-Oos distrikte van die Oos-Kaap te bepaal. Die
dryfkrag agter die nuwe grondbeleid is die grondhervormingsprogram, wat bestaan uit
herverdeling, sekerheid van eienaarskap en restitusie van grond. Grondhervorming behels
onder andere die herverspreiding van grond met die hoofdoel om sosio-ekonomiese
ontwikkeling te bevorder en armoede te verminder.
Uit die navorsing het dit geblyk dat grondhervorming 'n ingewikkelde kwessie is waaroor
verskeie sterk uiteenlopend standpunte gehuldig word. Selfs die Regering het sy beleid
verander sedert 1994, en die Wêreldbank het ook sy beleid verander. Van die brandpunte is:
moet grondhervorming hoofsaaklik gaan oor die herverdeling van grond of oor sosioekonomiese
opheffing; is kommersiële boerdery op groot plase die beste vir herverdeling of
kleinskaal boerdery op klein plase; is die kapitalistiese siening met die markmeganisme as
dryfveer die beste, of moet 'n meer sosialistiese benadering gevolg word; is kommunale besit
van grond die beste of individuele eienaarskap; moet slegs aansoekers met ondervinding in
landbou van grond voorsien word, of ook mense met geen ondervinding nie? Al dié
standpunte het voor- en teenstanders, en heelwaarskynlik sal 'n middeweg meestal die beste
resultate lewer. Uit die drie gevallestudies, sowel as die literatuur en onderhoude, het dit geblyk dat
ondersteuningsdienste vir opkomende boere van kardinale belang is. Mentors, wat hulp aan
opkomende boere verleen en hulle help met besigheidsplanne kan 'n positiewe bydrae maak.
Hierin behoort bestaande kommersiële boere ook 'n rol speel. Dit het ook geblyk dat dit
moeilik is vir groot groepe onverwante begunstigdes om suksesvol op een plaas saam te werk.
Die sukses van hierdie elemente van grondhervorming is afhanklik van meer as blote toegang
tot grond - die kwaliteit van lewe en moontlikheid van werksgeleenthede kan slegs verbeter
word deur die lewering van ondersteuningsdienste, infrastruktuur en ander
ontwikkelingsprogramme, wat voortspruit uit grondhervorming. Dit vereis 'n opbouende
vennootskap tussen nasionale-, provinsiale- en plaaslike regerings.
Volgens die sosio-ekonomiese analises blyk dit dat daar groot armoede en werkloosheid in
die Somerset-Oos en Cradock distrikte is. Alhoewel die landelike bevolking daal, is daar nog
steeds 'n groot swart en bruin landelike bevolking wat kan baat by grondhervorming. Weens
die droë klimaat en swak grondgehalte van dié gebied is dit onwaarskynlik dat baie van dié
gesinne met grond herverdeling gehelp sal kan word om uit armoede te ontsnap.
Daar was verdeelde opinie by betrokkenes oor die mate waartoe grondhervorming reeds
bygedra het tot die bevordering van sosio-ekonomiese ontwikkeling. Dit blyk dat projekte
waar 'n mentor opkomende boere bystaan, of waar daar 'n klein aantal lede is wat verwant is
aan mekaar, 'n groter kans op sukses het.
Effektiewe grondprogramme kan moontlik direk bydra tot verhoging in produksie en die
uitwissing van armoede - mits dit korrek toegepas word. Grond vorm die hoeksteen tot
ontwikkeling, maar kan nie die enigste manier wees om armoede te probeer verlig nie.

Study project (Mnutr) -- University of Stellenbosch, 2005.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Quality nursing care is characterised by clinical decisions based on critical and analytical
thinking. The assessment, planning and implementation information which is used as basis
for decision making must be recorded in the patient's record/file. The questlon is rai_sed
whetherthe patient's record does indeed reflect critical and analytical thinking.
The focus on the midwife's practices during professional conduct hearings which relate to
intrapartum service delivery, led to the specific choice of population, namely intrapartum
services delivery in Levell hospitals in the Western Cape.
A non-experimental study whereby qualitative and quantitative data were collected, was
performed in six (6) Levell hospitals. Check lists were compiled to evaluate the structure
and facilities in which midwifery practice is executed. The records of 128 patients were
analysed to specifically investigate the nature and extent of critical and analytical decisionmaking
by midwives, and the extent to which the midwife really applies reflective
practices.
The results showed that record-keeping is not done optimally; that the partogram, which
- - ----
is a comprehensive evaluation of the progress of_lab_2~1isJ not used and that the records
did not indicate that the midwife applies critical and analytical thinking and acts
accordingly. Recommendationsare that the proposals for the improvement of intrapartum
service delivery, as made by Odendal (2004: ii-iv) and the Department of Health (2000:
42), are to receive immediate attention. It appears as if protocols and guidelines for
emergency action and general safe practices do exist, but are not enforced. Continued inservice
training receive priority attention.

Die vraag ontstaan egter of die pasient se rekord wei kritiese en analitiese denke

intrapartumsorgdienslewering verband hou, het tot die spesifieke keuse van die populasie,

is in ses (6) vlak 1- hospitale uitgevoer. Kontrolelyste is opgestel om die struktuur en
fasiliteite waarbinne vroedvroupraktyke plaasvind, te evalueer. Die rekords van 128
pasiente is ontleed om spesifiek ondersoek in te stel na die aard en omvang van kritiese
en analitiese besluitneming deur die vroedvrou, en tot watter mate die vroedvrou wei
weldeurdagte praktyke toepas.
Die resultate toon dat rekordhouding nie optimaal gedoen word nie; dat die partogram
wat 'n omvattende evaluering van die kraamverloop is, nie gebruik word nie, en dat daar
uit die rekords nie 'n aanduiding gevind kan word dat vroedvroue wei krities en analities
dink en optree nie. Aanbevelings is dat die voorstelle ter verbetering van
intrapartumsorgdienslewering 5005 gemaak deur Odendal (2004: iii-v) en die Departement
van Gesondheid (2000: 42), indringend aandag moet geniet. Dit wil voorkom asof
protokolle en riglyne vir noodoptrede en algemene veilige praktykvoering wei bestaan,
maar nie toegepas word nie. Voortgesette indiensopleiding moet as 'n prioritieit
aangespreek word.

Thesis (MCur)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: No clear description exists in S.A. of the role and functions of a forensic psychiatric nurse. The
researcher conducted a research project based on more than 20 years of practice experience to
define and describe the role and functions of the forensic nurse practitioner.
A non-experimental descriptive study was done. Questionnaires and checklists were compiled to
determine the perceptions of forensic psychiatric patients/clients (n =24) and nursing staff
(n = 15) .The nursing activities in a selected forensic psychiatric unit was evaluated through nonparticipative
observation.
Results indicated that:
• Patients experienced their environment as isolated and has a need for better support by the
nursing staff;
• Nursing staff indicated their need for more specific training in forensic psychiatric nursing;
and
• A need exists for specific protocols and procedures to guide his/her practice.
The recommendations are made that:
• A special training program for forensic psychiatric nursing needs to be planned and
implemented; and
• Procedures and guidelines must be established to guide the practice of the nurse
practitioner.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Daar bestaan in S.A. geen duidelike omskrywing van die rol en funksies van die forensiese
psigiatriese verpleegkundige nie. Die navorser het gegrond op meer as 20 jaar praktykervaring 'n
navorsingsprojek gedoen om die rol en funksies van die verpleegpraktisyn te definieer en te
omskryf.
'n Nie-eksperimentele, beskrywende studie is gedoen. Vraelyste en kontrolelyste is opgestel om
die persepsies van forensiese psigiatriese pasiënte/kliënte (n=24) en verpleegpersoneel (n=15) te
bepaal.
Die verpleegaktiwiteite in 'n geselekteerde forensiese psigiatriese eenheid is deur nie-deelnemende
observasie geëvalueer.
Resultate het daarop gedui dat:
• Pasiënte hulle omgewing as geïsoleerd ervaar en het 'n behoefte aan beter
ondersteuning deur die verpleegpersoneel;
• Verpleegpersoneel het aangedui dat hulle 'n behoefte het aan spesifieke opleiding in
forensiese psigiatriese verpJeging;en
• Daar 'n behoefte is aan spesifieke protokolle en prosedures om sy/haar praktyk te rig .
Die aanbevelings word gemaak dat:
• 'n Spesiale opleidingsprogram vir forensiese psigiatriese verpleging beplan en
geïmplementeer word; en
• Prosedures en riglyne daargestel moet word om die praktyk van die verpleegpraktisyn
te rig.

Pupils experience a great deal of stress in our modern society.
The level of stress among our high school pupils is alarming.
The principal, as the chief executive of the school, has an
obligation to manage stress in schools.
Without the guidance of someone with the necessary training,
pupils tend to resort to defence mechanisms which is a negative
way of handling stress. The principal who has acquired
knowledge of stress management skills, will be able to guide
such pupils in overcoming stress. Thus managing stress and not
allowing stress to manage them.
In this study, five defence mechanisms and its symptoms have
been discussed briefly as a negative means of handling stress.
On the other hand, ten stress management skills have been
discussed more extensively.
An empirical research has been conducted. The aim was to
determine the level of stress currently experienced by high
school pupils. Secondly, the aim was to determine how
principals relate to pupils who experience stress and the
methods they use to help such pupils.
The empirical research pointed out some problem areas:
* The vast majority of principals are not qualified to
relate to or guide such pupils in overcoming stress.
* The majority of schools are situated in the country
with low enrolment figures such as between 201-300
pupils.
* Due to the above mentioned figures, such schools do
not qualify for the post of a guidance teacher.
Certain conclusions and recommendations have been made
with regard to the management of stress in secondary schools.<br>Skripsie (MEd (Onderwysbestuur))--PU vir CHO, 1996

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study investigates the binary oppositions in Dalene Matthee's historic novel,
Pieternella van die Kaap, and the extent to which it correlates with the
perspectives on "the other" and the influence of the spatial context on the two
main characters, Eva-Krotoa and Pietemella. The study ascertains in which way
Matthee's novel falls within the post-colonial framework; whether a tendency
towards hybridity can be found and in which cases the binary opposition of "the
self" versus "the other", is consequently suspended. Attention is also given to key
concepts associated with this, like stereotyping and convention.
After exploring the term post-colonial literature, a number of related elements
are discussed, such as the post-colonial focus on identity. Via the focalisation of
PietenelIa the novel firstly presents a general view of her experiences in the
Cape, on Robben Island, on the ship the Boode, and on Mauritius. In the process
it also foregrounds the life of her mother, Eva-Krotoa. Both of them are so much
affected by the binary oppositions relating to their existence within different,
contrasting spaces, that it is justified to call them "two-head" women. While Eva-
Krotoa's life is torn apart by the binary oppositions, there are indications that
Pietemella moves in the direction of a growing hybridity, that brings about a
synthesis between the oppositions and allows her to reconcile herself with her
own identity. This is even more pronounced in the case of her daughter, Maria.
The study comes to the conclusion that stereotyping is based on convention and
that time, place and circumstances determine whether and to what extent the
binary opposition of "the self'/"the other" is suspended.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek die binêre opposrsres in Dalene Matthee se
historiese roman Pieternella van die Kaap en die mate waarin die
perspektiewe op 'die ander' en die invloed van die ruimtelike konteks op die
twee vernaamste karakters, Eva-Krotoa en Pieternella, hiermee in verband
gebring kan word. Daar word vasgestel in watter mate hierdie roman binne 'n
postkoloniale raamwerk val, in watter opsigte sprake is van hibriditeit en in
watter gevalle die binêre opposisie van 'die ek'teenoor 'die ander' gevolglik
opgehef word. Aandag word ook bestee aan sleutelbegrippe wat hiermee
saamhang, soos stereotipering en konvensie.
Na 'n verkenning van die term postkoloniale literatuur word verskeie elemente
wat hiermee verband hou bespreek, soos die postkoloniale fokus op identiteit.
Die roman bied eerstens, via die fokalisasie van Pieternella, 'n oorsig oor haar
lotgevalle aan die Kaap, op Robbeneiland, op die skip die Baade en op
Mauritius, maar stel in die proses ook die lewe van haar moeder Eva-Krotoa
voorop. Beide word in so 'n mate geaffekteer deur binêre opposisies van hulle
bestaan binne verskillende, kontrasterende ruimtes, dat hulle tereg
'tweekopvroue' genoem kan word. Waar Eva-Krotoa ten onder gaan aan die
binêre opposisies is daar met betrekking tot Pieternella aanduidings van 'n
groeiende hibriditeit wat 'n sintese bring tussen die opposisies en haar met
haar eie identiteit laat versoen. Dit is in In nog groter mate die geval met haar
dogter Maria.
Die studie kom tot die slotsom dat stereotipering berus op konvensie en dat
tyd, plek en omstandighede bepaal of en in watter mate die binêre opposisie
van ekl'ander' opgehef word.

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2004.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Local authorities have, as is the case with any other organisation, a set of unique
circumstances with which to comply. The arrival of the “new” South Africa,
bringing with it, the first fully democratic municipal elections on 5 December 2000,
as well as the implementation of the Act on Local Government: The Municipal
Systems, Act 32 of 2000, has imposed a considerable burden on the human
resource field within local authorities. As a support mechanism, it is important
that any organisation has access to an effective and fully equipped human
resource section.
The history and development of human resource management, has over the
years followed various approaches (both classical and contemporary), but
particularly in South Africa, human resource management has been influenced by
political ideologies (apartheid and democracy with all the various pieces of
legislation) which have influenced the thinking. Through the various types of
functions, human resource management was responsible for the establishment of
a service relationship between the employer (as a dynamic system) and the
employee (as a variable and dynamic being with unique characteristics), within an
environment which places further demands and responsibilities, in order to
establish an optimal fit to the advantage of the shareholders, and which can be
managed and regulated. For this reason the human resource management
section should possess the necessary skilled capacity in order to adapt to the demands of the day (including legal aspects) and through service delivery
support the strategy of the organisation. The effect which change has on human
resource management should not be discounted, and consequently necessitates
a repositioning of human resource management in terms of positioning within the
organisation, its activities (functions) and service delivery (effectiveness and
efficiency) in order to make a contribution to the success of the organisation.
Although effectivity has been researched and analysed for some time by
researchers, the analysis thereof within local government still remains relevant.
The relevancy thereof has been propelled by the promulgation of the Act on Local
Government: The Municipal Systems, Act 32 of 2000, wherein requirements are
laid down for human resource management within local government. The
attainment of these requirements contributes to the realisation of the
organisational goals, strategies and expectations.
The question can be asked whether human resource management satisfies the
current and acknowledged theoretical prescription whereby human resource
management should be managed and whether human resource management
satisfies the principles of the Act of Local Government: Municipal Systems Act. It
is against this background that this study articulates as its purpose a survey into
the state of human resource management within local government. Due to the
extensive nature of the research, only certain variables could be included within
the research, and for that reason the research has been limited to councillors,
management and human resource management sections from a number of
municipalities within the South Cape and Overberg regions.
The results of the study indicate that differences do exist with regard to the state
and effectiveness of human resource management within local government and
the way in which the requirements of the Act on Local Government: Municipal
Systems Act, No 32 of 2000, are complied with. Hereby it is implied that the
human resource management sections have become removed from the
theoretical models whereupon it has been built and that it should reposition itself should it wish to remain a roleplayer within local authorities. In this regard
several proposals have been generated as possible solutions to the problem.
In conclusion it should be mentioned that the study has made a contribution to
the analysis of human resource management sections within local authorities,
especially with regard to the functions which it serves, the effectiveness with
which it has been delivered and the way it complies with legislation.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Plaaslike owerhede het, net soos enige ander organisasie, unieke
omstandighede waaraan voldoen moet word. So het die koms van die “nuwe”
Suid-Afrika, die eerste ten volle demokratiese munisipale verkiesing wat op 5
Desember 2000 gehou is en die inwerkingtreding van die Wet op Plaaslike
Regering: Munisipale Stelsels, Wet 32 van 2000, besondere eise aan die
menslike hulpbronbestuursafdeling binne plaaslike owerhede gestel. As
ondersteuningsmeganisme is dit belangrik dat ‘n organisasie toegang het tot ‘n
effektiewe en ten volle toegeruste menslike hulpbronbestuursafdeling.
Die geskiedenis en ontwikkeling van menslike hulpbronbestuur het oor die jare
heen verskeie benaderings (klassiek en kontemporêr) gevolg, maar veral in Suid-
Afrika was menslike hulpbronbestuur ook aan politieke ideologieë (apartheid en
demokrasie met sy talle nuwe tipe wetgewings), wat daardeur hulle denkwyses
beïnvloed het, uitgelewer. Deur middel van sy verskeie tipe funksies was
menslike hulpbronbestuur verantwoordelik vir die daarstelling van ‘n
diensverhouding tussen die werkgewer (as dinamiese sisteem) en die werknemer
(as veranderlike en dinamiese wese met unieke eienskappe) ten einde optimale
passing, tot voordeel van die aandeelhouers, te bestuur en te reguleer. Die
diensverhouding geskied binne ‘n omgewing wat verdere eise en
verantwoordelikheid stel. Daarom moet die menslike hulpbronbestuursafdeling
oor die nodige kundige vermoëns beskik ten einde te kan aanpas by die eise van
die dag (wat wetlike aspekte insluit) en deur middel van dienslewering die strategie van die organisasie ondersteun. Die effek wat verandering het op
menslike hulpbronbestuur kan nie misken word nie, gevolglik noodsaak dit ‘n
herposisionering van die menslike hulpbronbestuursafdeling binne ‘n organisasie,
sy aktiwiteite (funksies) en dienslewering (doeltreffendheid en effektiwiteit) ten
einde ‘n bydrae te lewer tot die sukses van die organisasie.
Alhoewel effektiwiteit al vir ‘n geruime tyd deur navorsers ondersoek en ontleed
is, bly die ontleding daarvan binne plaaslike owerhede steeds relevant. Die
relevansie het stukrag gekry met die afkondiging van die Wet op Plaaslike
Regering: Munisipale Stelsels, Wet 32 van 2000, deur vereistes daar te stel
waaraan menslike hulpbronbestuur moet voldoen. Die bereiking van hierdie
vereistes dra by tot die verwesenliking van die organisasie se doelwitte, strategie
en verwagtinge.
Die vraag kan egter gevra word of menslike hulpbronbestuur wel voldoen aan die
huidige en erkende teoretiese bepalings waarvolgens menslike hulpbronbestuur
bestuur behoort te word en of menslike hulpbronbestuur die beginsels van die
Wet op Plaaslike Regering: Munisipale Stelsels navolg. Dit is teen hierdie
agtergrond dat die studie dit juis ten doel het om ‘n opname oor die stand van
menslike hulpbronbestuur binne plaaslike owerhede te loods. Vanweë die
omvangrykheid van die navorsing kon slegs sekere veranderlikes in die
navorsing ingesluit word, daarom is die navorsing beperk tot raadslede,
bestuurslede en menslike hulpbronbestuursafdelings van enkele munisipaliteite in
die Suid-Kaap- en Overberg streek.
Die resultate van die studie dui daarop dat ‘n verskil wel bestaan ten opsigte van
die stand en effektiwiteit van menslike hulpbronbestuur in plaaslike owerhede en
die wyse waarop aan die vereistes van die Wet op Plaaslike Regering:
Munisipale Stelsels, Wet 32 van 2000, voldoen word. Hiermee word geïmpliseer
dat die menslike hulpbronbestuursafdeling verwyderd geraak het van die
teoretiese modelle waarop dit gebou is en gevolglik hulself moet herposisioneer
indien hulle steeds as rolspeler binne plaaslike owerhede gesien wil word. In hierdie verband is bepaalde voorstelle gegenereer as potensiële oplossing vir die
probleme.
Ten slotte kan dit vermeld word dat die studie ‘n bydrae gelewer het tot die
analisering van menslike hulpbronbestuursafdelings binne plaaslike owerhede
veral ten opsigte van die funksies wat dit verrig, die effektiwiteit waarmee dit
uitgevoer word en die wyse waarop aan wetgewing voldoen word.

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Owing to the dramatic change in the South African political and economic
environment during the last few years, it seems more important than ever for
upper level management in organizations to be aware of the sources which
encourage and discourage their middle level managers to strive to implement the
organizational goals. The focus of this study is on male and female middle level
managers, and as no documented South African study based on such a sample
group could be found, the study is largely investigativeby nature.
The general aim of the study is to investigate the different attitudes and
perceptions of men and women with regard to sources of job satisfaction,
sources which contribute to job dissatisfaction, and job stress. In this regard it
was decided to make use of triangulation by which qualitative and quantitative
research methods are used. Thematic analysis is used on the qualitative level to
identify the possible sources of job satisfaction, dissatisfaction and job stress.
This method is quantitatively supported by a determination of the frequencies
and percentages of subject responses by means of semi structured interviews.
Although certain limitations are identified in the study, significant differences were
found in the quantitative data with regard to the causes of job satisfaction and
dissatisfaction between men and women. The causes of job stress seems to be
similar for both sexes. On a qualitative level it was found that the experience of
success is rated as the most important source of job satisfaction and that
interpersonal relationships are the most significant source of job dissatisfaction.
Further it seems that work expectations / demands are the major source of job
stress for the subjects.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Omdat die Suid-Afrikaanse politieke- en ekonomiese omgewing die afgelope
paar jaar geweldig verander het, blyk dit noodsaakliker as ooit te wees dat die
topbestuur van organisasies bewus sal wees wat hul werkers - in die besonder
middelvlakbestuurders- aanmoedig, maar ook ontmoedig om organisatoriese
doelwitte na te streef en te implementeer. Die fokus van hierdie studie is op
manlike en vroulike middelvlakbestuurders. Aangesien daar geen
gedokumenteerde studies rakende die bronne van werksatisfaksie én werkstres
by middelvlakbestuurders in die bedryf onderneem is nie, is die studie tot 'n groot
mate ondersoekend van aard.
Die algemene doelstelling van die studie is om ondersoek in te stel na die
verskillende houdings en persepsies van mans en dames rakende
werksatisfaksie, bronne wat bydra dat werksatisfaksie nie ervaar word nie, en
werkstres. In dié verband is besluit om van triangulasie gebruik te maak, dit wil
sê van kwalitatiewe- en kwantitatiewe navorsingsmetodes. Op die kwalitatiewe
vlak word tematiese analise gebruik om potensiële bronne van werksatisfaksie,
dissatisfaksie en werkstres te identifiseer. Hierdie metode word verder
kwantitatief ondersteun deur 'n bepaling van frekwensies en persentasies van
subjekte se response wat uit semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude verkry is.
Alhoewel daar heelwat beperkings in die studie geïdentifiseer is, is daar uit die
kwantitatiewe data gevind dat daar 'n verskil is in die bronne van werksatisfaksie
en dissatisfaksie by mans en dames. Die bronne van werkstres is egter
dieselfde vir beide geslagte. Op 'n meer kwalitatiewe vlak blyk dit dat die
ervaring van sukses die grootste bron van ....werksatisfaksie is en dat
interpersoonlike verhoudings die bron is wat die meeste bydra tot dissatisfaksie.
Verder blyk dit dat werksverwagtinge / -eise die grootste bron van werkstres vir
die subjekte is.

While parental involvement in schools in impoverished rural communities is very low, research also indicates parental involvement is key in addressing barriers to learning and associated learning disabilities. This study sought to explore the nature and extent of parental involvement of learners with learning disabilities at schools in impoverished rural communities. The study targeted a specific impoverished rural community in the Western Cape where the combination of learning disability and a lack of parental involvement negatively affects the literacy and numeracy skills, resulting in learning outputs that are below standard. The study drew on Epstein’s theory of parental involvement. Thematic data analysis was used in employing a constant comparative method. By applying Epstein’s model, this study not only contributes to understanding the nature and dynamics of parental involvement in impoverished rural schools as well as factors contributing towards the improvement of parental involvement; it also contributes towards an understanding of Epstein by applying her model to a rural setting.

By using two articles from Green Planets - Ecology and Science Fiction to illus-trate two different views; Different parts value in an ekosystem and The Ship as an ecosystem. I have also created, based on the literary text four different terms concern-ing the dynamic system; Stable, Static, Unstable and Collapsing systems. I have found that all system goes through changes, some drastic, that changes the way the parts of the systems fit with in it. The reason for leaving the system in Småland varies a lot, not only nature, and the drive to feed, is responsible for emigration, also persecutions of religious views and class conflict are apparent. The emigrants also end up in a system that does not fit them very well, the ship Charlotta, in which they must struggle to sur-vive. The conclusion that I arrived at is that change will keep happening and that it is natural for a system to change.

agriculture as a course of study also have to deal with this problem. Approximately
one quarter of the students who are admitted at most agricultural training institutions
are forced to discontinue their studies or do so voluntarily. Most of these cessations
of study occur during or near the end of the first year of study. The cessation of
studies is not the only negative aspect. The low pass rate of students at higher
education institutions in South Africa is also alarming.
The main object of this study was to ascertain why students discontinued their
studies and why they took longer than the minimum time allowed to complete their
studies. In order to substantiate this theory, an attempt was made to obtain both an
international and a national perspective of the student dropout rate in general, as
well as to determine what factors were responsible or contributed to successful
completion of their studies by students. A background perspective of agricultural
education in South Africa was included. The literature reviews are supplemented by
a qualitative investigation of students who discontinued their studies specifically at
agricultural higher education institutions. A case study approach was employed, in
which an in-depth interview strategy was utilised to obtain descriptive and illustrative
data.
The study demonstrated that dropout rates can be attributed mainly to academic
and/or social factors. These factors prevented adequate integration, which is
essential to successful studies, from occurring. Various academic factors may be
the reason for inadequate academic integration, of which the most important were
unclear objectives, a lack of motivation, wrong academic expectations, a
misconception of hard work, as well as a lack of the necessary explanatory
knowledge in the agricultural study field. New students’ academic adjustment
appeared to be the most problematic factor. It appeared that new students were
insufficiently prepared to make the adjustment, and in fact, less prepared for this
step than was generally the case in the past. Ineffective social integration was the result of too little student participation in social
activities or the absence of adequate opportunities for social activities at agricultural
training institutions. Unbalanced and unhealthy social activities were often the major
factors that contributed to student dropout. Furthermore, the study demonstrated
that non-academic factors such as inadequate accommodation or financial problems
were not significant causative factors for student dropout, but rather non-academic
factors such as unbalanced or unhealthy social activities and poor time
management.
After the probable causes for student dropout had been established, a theoretical
framework was created that could offer possible explanation for the student dropout
rates at agricultural training institutions. The framework was created to establish
student dropout from a longitudinal perspective, and not only to explain the
phenomenon as a result of what had occurred during the time that the student was
at the institution. The framework was therefore designed to explain student dropout
against the background of the student, together with various factors that were
related to students or the institution and which were responsible for inadequate
integration. From this framework it was possible to develop individual models for
specific agricultural training institutions or for one specific institution in respect of the
dropout phenomenon.

Thesis (MEd (Special education))--University of Stellenbosch, 2002.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The value of partnerships within the South African education system has for many
years been emphasised by various researchers. It is only since the first democratic
election in South Africa in 1994 that the government was committed to the extension
of partnerships between schools, parents, learners and the community on both local
and national level. In Article 29 of the Constitution (RSA, 1996a) parents are given
the assurance that the state will execute their role as educational partner. The state
also gives other partners enough scope to implement their educational partnerships
according to their worldview and philosophy of life.
The aim of this study was the exploration of challenges and mechanisms for
partnership between three rural primary schools and the Department of Educational
Psychology and Specialized Education, now referred to as the University of
Stellenbosch (US), as tertiary institution. The needs expressed by the particular
schools, the social consciousness role of the US within the community and thirdly the
empowerment role of partnerships served as motivation for the study. A
constructivist, interpretative paradigm was used and the research design can be
classified as empirical research with primary data generating textual data. The
literature review explored the challenges within systems, mechanisms for
partnerships and different systems within partnerships in view of a meta-theoretical
frame of reference.
The research results regarding challenges within specific systems are summarized
under three headings, namely positive findings, negative findings and differences of
opinion. Results regarding the exploration of the partnership shows that the
researcher throughout the study consistently recognised the uniqueness of each
school; trusting relationships were established; the schools were continuously
involved in all the processes; a partnership of collaboration was emphasised; the
processes were continuously evaluated and the schools were predominantly positive
about the collaborative partnership with the US.
The findings of this study have important implications for the further exploration of
partnerships between schools and persons and/or institutions on both local and national level. The positive results accomplished through this partnership with the
three schools acts as motivation for further extension of partnerships.
Recommendations serve as foundation for a partnership of consultation,
collaboration and teamwork between schools and other systems.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die waarde van vennootskappe binne die Suid-Afrikaanse onderwys is reeds vir jare
deur verskeie navorsers beklemtoon. Dit is egter eers sedert Suid-Afrika se eerste
demokratiese verkiesing in 1994 dat die regering hom verbind het tot die uitbou van
vennootskappe tussen skole, ouers, leerders en die gemeenskap op beide plaaslike
en nasionale vlak. In Artikel 29 van die Grondwet (RSA, 1996a) word aan ouers die
versekering gegee dat die staat sy rol as opvoedingvennoot sal deurvoer. Die staat
gee ook aan ander vennote genoeg ruimte om hulopvoedende vennootskappe
volgens hul bepaalde wêreld- en lewensbeskouing in skole uit te leef.
Die doel van hierdie studie was die verkenning van uitdagings en meganismes tot
vennootskap tussen drie landelike primêre skole en die Departement
Opvoedkundige Sielkunde en Spesialiseringsonderwys, voortaan na verwys as die
Universiteit van Stellenbosch (US), as tersiêre instelling. Die behoeftes uitgespreek
deur die betrokke drie skole, die US se sosiale bewustheidsrol binne die
gemeenskap en derdens die bemagtigingsrol wat vennootskappe inhou het as
motivering gedien. Daar is vanuit 'n konstruktivistiese, interpretatiewe paradigma
gewerk en die navorsingsontwerp kan geklassifiseer word as empiriese navorsing
met primêre databronne wat tekstuele data genereer. Die literatuuroorsig het gepoog
om aan die hand van 'n meta-teoretiese verwysingsraamwerk ondersoek in te stel na
uitdagings binne sisteme, meganismes tot vennootskappe en verskillende sisteme
binne vennootskappe.
Die navorsingsbevindinge rakende uitdagings binne bepaalde sisteme word bondig
saamgevat onder drie hoofde, naamlik positiewe bevindinge, negatiewe bevindinge
en meningsverskille. Bevindinge ten opsigte van die verkenning van die vennootskap
het aangetoon dat die navorser deurentyd die uniekheid van elke skool erken het;
dat In vertrouensverhouding gebou is; dat die skole sover moontlik op In
deurlopende basis in al die prosesse betrek is; dat die navorser deurlopend klem
gelê het op In vennootskap van samewerking; dat prosesse deurlopend geëvalueer
is en dat die skole oorwegend positief was oor die vennootskap van samewerking
met die US. Die bevindinge van hierdie studie hou belangrike implikasies in vir die verdere
verkenning van vennootskappe tussen skole en persone en/of instansies op beide
plaaslike en nasionale vlak. Die positiewe resultate behaal deur hierdie vennootskap
met die drie skole moet dien as aansporing vir verdere uitbouing van
vennootskappe. Aanbevelings wat dien as grondslag vir 'n vennootskap van
samewerking, konsultasie en spanwerk tussen skole en ander sisteme word gedoen.

Zapatiströrelsens organisering grundar sig i århundraden av förtryck av ursprungsbefolkningarna och i den sedan länge pågående konflikten om land. I och med upproret krävde de demokrati, frihet och rättvisa, politisk och territoriell självbestämmanderätt samt rättigheter för ursprungsbefolkningarna i Mexiko. Samtidigt höjde kvinnorna rösten och krävde ett mer jämlikt och rättvist samhälle och de lade fram den revolutionära kvinnolagen vilket blev startskottet för en växande kvinnorörelse som kom att sträcka sig långt utanför Chiapas gränser. Uppsatsens syfte är att belysa zapatistkvinnornas organisering och kamp samt hur Zapatiströrelsens framväxt bidragit till förändring av könsroller och maktstrukturer. Uppsatsen bygger främst på antropologisk litteratur och artiklar och genomsyras av postkoloniala feministiska teorier.

Thesis (MEd)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Reading is an important skill for the 21st century and are one of the
cornerstones of learning.
Research shows an escalating concern about the reading ability of South
African learners. In an attempt to improve the literacy levels of learners, the
Northern Cape Department of Education, issued a circular to schools
instructing them to implement a daily reading period of 30 minutes. It is
required of schools to indicate the reading period on the timetable and reading
must be formally instructed.
The purpose of the study was to determine the perspectives of teachers
regarding the use of the reading period and school libraries. It is hypothesized
that teachers do not provide enough exposure to learners regarding reading.
Secondly It is hypothesized that teachers do not a create a reading culture or
foster a positive attitude towards reading, because they ignore the reading
period and do not use the library as a resource.
A mixed method approach was followed, where both quantitative and
qualitative research designs was used. The study consisted of a literature
review and an empirical study. The empirical study was conducted at two
high schools in the Namaqua District. The data was collected by means of a questionnaire which was completed by
16 Grade 8 and 9 teachers. Focus group interviews were also conducted with
the participating teachers.
An analysis of the empirical data showed the following :
- According to the results the majority of the teachers are aware of the
reading period.
- The teachers indicated that the reading period is not implemented at both
of the schools.
- The teachers did not receive any guidance or support from the Northern
Cape Education Department to assist learners with reading problems.
- The data showed that both schools do have a school library.
- From the responses of the teachers it seems that the library resources are
old and insufficient.
- The data indicated that the teachers do not use the school library as a
resource to promote teaching and learning.
- The learners are not exposed to the library to assist them with curriculum
assignments. The research confirmed the research hypothesis that the reading period is not
implemented and that the school library is not used by the teachers to
promote the literacy levels and academic performance of the learners.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Lees is ʼn noodsaaklike vaardigheid in die 21ste eeu en is een van die
boustene van leer.
Navorsing in Suid-Afrika dui daarop dat leesprobleme in Suid-Afrika besig is
om ernstige afmetings aan te neem. Om die leesvermoëns en
geletterheidvlakke van leerders te verhoog, het die Noord-Kaapse
Onderwysdepartement (NKOD) ʼn omsendskrywe uitgestuur, waarin skole
verplig word om daagliks ʼn leesperiode van 30 minute in te stel. Hierdie
leesperiode moet op die skool se rooster aangedui word. Binne die
leesperiode moet lees op ʼn gestruktureerde manier aangebied word.
Die breë navorsingsdoelstelling van die studie is om ondersoek in te stel na
die perspektiewe van opvoeders rakende die gebruik van die leesperiode en
die skoolbiblioteek. As navorsingshipotese is eerstens gestel dat opvoeders
nie aan die leerders genoeg blootstelling rakende lees gee nie. Tweedens is
gestel dat opvoeders nie ʼn kultuur van lees skep nie of ʼn positiewe houding
teenoor lees by die leerders kweek nie, want hulle verontagsaam die
leesperiode en ignoreer die biblioteek as hulpbron. In hierdie studie is daar gebruik gemaak van ʼn gemengde navorsingsontwerp,
waarvolgens beide kwantitatiewe en kwalitatiewe navorsingsmetodes
gekombineer word om die navorsingsprobleem beter te verstaan. Die studie
het bestaan uit ’n literatuurstudie en ’n empiriese ondersoek. Die empiriese ondersoek is by twee geselekteerde hoërskole in die Namakwa-distrik
gedoen.
Die data is versamel deur ‘n vraelys wat voltooi is deur 16 graad 8- en 9-
opvoeders van die geselekteerde skole. Fokusgroeponderhoude is ook met
die deelnemers gevoer.
ʼn Ontleding van die empiriese data het getoon dat:
- die meerderheid van die opvoeders kennis dra van die leesperiode.
- die leesperiode by nie een van die twee skole geïmplementeer word nie.
- die opvoeders geen leiding en ondersteuning vanaf die Noord-Kaapse
Onderwysdepartement ontvang het rakende hulpverlening aan leerders
met leesprobleme nie.
- beide skole beskik oor ’n skoolbiblioteek.
- die skoolbiblioteek se bronne onvoldoende is en meestal verouderd is.
- die opvoeders nie die skoolbiblioteek gebruik om onderrig en leer te
bevorder nie.
- die leerders ook geen blootstelling kry aan die skoolbiblioteek om take
binne die kurrikulum te doen nie. Die navorsing bevestig die navorsingshipotese dat die leesperiode nie
geïmplementeer word nie en dat die opvoeders nie die skoolbiblioteek as ʼn
bron gebruik om die geletterdheid en akademiese vordering van leerders te
bevorder nie.

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is primarily an examination of the effect of multilingualism on
Afrikaans newspapers, with specific reference to Die Burger (Western Cape).
The study also looks at the origin and development of South Africa's multilingual
dispensation, the effect of this on South Africa's press history, the newspaper market in
South Africa, how newspapers position themselves in this multilingual market, an outline
of Die Burger's potential and real market in the Western Cape, how Die Burger positions
itself in this market, the challenges and effect of multilingualism on Die Burger's market,
ways in which Die Burger handles this impact, and possible shortcomings in the handling
thereof.
The study further examines the effect of multilingualism on the financial and
operating management of newspapers, strategies for survival in a multilingual market,
the possible shortcomings of these strategies, and suggests possible solutions for these
shortcomings.
Through electronic media such as television, radio and the internet more and more
Afrikaans speaking people are exposed to English and it is likely and possible that
growing numbers of Afrikaans speaking people are able to communicate fluently in
English.
The possible effect of this may be that Afrikaans speaking people, Die Burger's
primary market, can, with growing ease, support Die Burger's direct competition, namely
English dailies.
Die Burger can therefore no longer depend on language loyalty, but have to compete
on level footing with English newspapers for Afrikaans readers. Because of the
uniqueness of the Die Burger's market there is no generic model for survival strategies
in this market.
Thus this study also examines influences on the Afrikaans market such as
globalisation, anglicization and the impact of the electronic media on language
preference and ability.
The study also examines the specific challenges for Die Burger, especially in terms
of not losing it's current readers, and secondly to survive in a market increasingly under
pressure from multilingualism.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie is primêr 'n ondersoek na die invloed wat veeltaligheid het op
Afrikaanse koerante, met spesifieke verwysing na Die Burger (Wes-Kaap).
Daar word ook 'n ondersoek gedoen na die oorsprong en ontwikkeling van Suid-
Afrika se veeltalige bestel, die invloed van veeltaligheid op Suid-Afrika se
persgeskiedenis, die koerantmark in Suid-Afrika, hoe koerante hulle in dié veeltalige
mark posisioneer, 'n beskrywing van Die Burger se potensiële en werklike mark in die
Wes-Kaap, hoe Die Burger hom in dié mark posisioneer, die uitdagings en invloed van
veeltaligheid op Die Burger se mark, die maniere waarop Die Burger dié impak hanteer,
en moontlike leemtes in die hantering daarvan.
Die studie ondersoek verder die finansiële en bedryfsimpak van 'n veeltalige
samelewing op koerante, strategieë vir oorlewing in 'n veeltalige mark, moontlike
leemtes in dié strategieë, en doen moontlike oplossings aan die hand.
Weens die elektroniese media soos televisie, radio en die internet word al meer
Afrikaanssprekendes aan veral Engels blootgestel en is dit waarskynlik en moontlik dat
al meer Afrikaanssprekendes ook gemaklik in veral Engels kan kommunikeer.
Dit kan tot gevolg hê dat Afrikaanssprekendes, en dus Die Burger se primêre
teikenmark, met toenemende gemak ook Die Burger se direkte kompetisie, naamlik
Engelse dagblaaie, kan begin ondersteun.
Die Burger sal dus nie meer kan staatmaak op taallojaliteit nie, maar moet op gelyke
voet met Engelse koerante meeding vir Afrikaanssprekende lesers. Weens die uniekheid
van die mark waarin Die Burger hom bevind, bestaan geen generiese model wat
strategieë vir oorlewing binne dié mark uitstippel nie.
Dus word in die studie 'n ondersoek gedoen na die invloede op die Afrikaanse mark
soos byvoorbeeld globalisering, gepaardgaande verengelsing, en die invloed van die
elektroniese media op die mark se taalvoorkeur en -vaardigheid.
Die studie behels ook 'n ondersoek na die spesifieke uitdagings vir Die Burger, veral
in terme daarvan om eerstens sy huidige lesers te behou, en tweedens om te oorleef in
'n mark wat toenemend die invloed voel van veeltaligheid.

Full textAbstract:
One of the most important recommendations of the Report or the Main
Committee or the HSRC-Investigation into Education (1981), comprises a three-level system of control in education. This system or control has to provide strong, built-in structures and procedures for participation, consultation and negotiation at each or these three levels. These structures and procedures ensure that all persons, including the White parent, and interested parties concerned with education in South Africa, will have a say in both educational policy and practice. In this way the devolution of authority in educational control is proposed, so that the responsibility and
share in educational teaching will be transferred, as far as possible,
to the third level of educational control. Host of the educational
principles included in the HSRC-investigation of education
are concerned with the matter of parental involvement in educational
teaching.
The following aims have been formulated for this research:
The first and fundamental aim is to indicate that the parent, as
first, natural and primary educator of his child, should have a say
in and insight into a system governing the provision of education
for Whites in the Cape of Good Hope.
From this fundamental aim four related aims have been deduced and
formulated to indicate that: • it is the Christian parent's calling and responsibility to determine the spirit and orientation of educational teaching at the school; • structures through which school and home can be associated more closely, must be created; • parents in the Cape have had a say in the educational teaching of their children since the arrival of Jan van Riebeeck; and • greater parental involvement in educational teaching increases the parents' say in these matters.
In addition to the formulation of aims, the following have also
received consideration in chapter one: • research methodology: the methods that have been employed in the course of the research are a study o:f the relevant literature, the method of fundamental contemplation and the historically descriptive method; • central concepts: such as Christian world and life view and educational teaching, as well as related ideas like religion, mainspring, religious mainspring, teaching and education, which define the central concepts more closely; and • the structure of the research.
Following the exhaustive study of the literature, chapter two determines
the origin, structure, duty and domain of the parental home
and the school, from a Christian point of view, by using the method
of fundamental contemplation. There is also an attempt to find a
basis for good cooperation between the home and school. For the
Christian parent, who maintains a Christian world and life view, it
is important to know: • which values and norms are taught at school; • which spirit and orientation prevail at the school his child is attending and • if a teacher with the same world and life view as the parent is appointed at the school. Chapter three contains a description of the development of the local
government and of the share that parents have had in the provision
of education for Whites in the Cape of Good Hope from 1652 to 1985.
The degree of involvement of the parental home in determining the
spirit and orientation of the school receives special consideration.
It has been indicated that in the period 1652 to 1985 the share of
parents in the control of education has developed from a system of
indirect involvement of the parent, to a system of school-boards and
committees, in which the parent has a limited say in the educational
teaching of his child. The School-Board Act 5 of 1905 which, by
means of the institution of school-boards and committees, established
a particular relationship between provincial educational
authorities and parents, is also discussed.
Chapter four examines the meaning and implications of the Report of
the Main Committee into the HSRC-Investigation of Education (1981),
the government's White paper on the Provision of Education in the
Republic of South Africa {1983), as regards the share of parents in
a system of provision of education for Whites, the law on the
National Policy for General Education Affairs (Act 76 of 1984) and
the Afrikaanse Ouervereniging vir Christelike opvoeding en ondervys.
It is indicated, furthermore, that it is possible for the
Afrikaanse Ouervereniging to exist side-by-side with organizations
such as the parent-teacher's association, the school committee,
board of control or school board. In many instances they can
cooperate and supplement each other to eliminate over lapping of
activities. In chapter four it is also indicated how the Cape Education
Department has taken the initiative to constitute regional
boards for school committee members. By involving democratically
chosen school committees in the selection of regional boards, all
the parents in the Cape are drawn into this process. It is made
clear that should the Cape Education Department allow the regional
boards to function individually, the continued existence of the
Afrikaanse Ouervereniging will be in jeopardy.
In chapter five a few problem areas are isolated, inferences are
drawn and recommendations are made. After the aims have been argued
and evaluated in chapter five, the conclusion is reached that the
parent, as first, natural and primary educator of his child, should
have a say in the provision of education in the Cape of Good Hope.<br>Thesis (MEd)--PU vir CHO, 1986

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This research investigates guidelines for a supervision programme for social workers in the
service of the Provincial Administration Western Cape, Department of Social Services and
Poverty Alleviation.
In practice social work supervision is done at the organizations to develop young social
workers' knowledge, skills and attitudes. This will enable them to develop professionally and
to work independently. At the Department of Social Services and Poverty Alleviation
supervision is also done with newly appointed social workers to empower them to work
independently.
Supervision in social work is 'n specialized method that enquires specific knowledge and
skills. Effective and structured supervision's aim is to better the service rendering to the
client. The Department of Social Services' vision and mission is also aimed at the best
service rendering to their clients.
The Department of Social Services and Poverty Alleviation has the problem that there is no
guidelines to structure the supervision process. There for this research is aimed at the
necessacity of guidelines for the practicing of social work supervision to get the results of
better service rendering to the clients.
To give the guidelines, there was a focus in this research report that includes 'n thorough
literature study that describes the Department of Social Services and Poverty Alleviation's
structure and the way supervision has been done up till this moment. The nature of
supervision is also looked at in a theoretical way to broaden the knowledge of how
supervision is supposed to be done.

diens van die Provinsiale Administrasie Wes-Kaap, Department Maatskaplike Dienste en
Armoedeverligting.
Maatskaplikewerk-supervisie word in die praktyk by organisasies beoefen ten einde jong
maatskaplike werkers se kennis, vaardighede en houdings te ontwikkel om die maatskaplike
werkers instaat te stel om professioneel te ontwikkel en onafhanklik te werk. By die
Departement Maatskaplike Dienste en Armoedeverligting word nuwe maatskaplike werkers
ook onderwerp aan supervisie ten einde hulle te bemagtig om onafhanklik hul werk te verrig.
Maatskaplikewerk-supervisie is 'n gespesialiseerde metode wat spesifieke kennis en
vaardighede vereis. Effektiewe, gestruktureerde supervisie het ten doel beter dienslewering
aan die kliëntsisteem. Die Departement Maatskaplike Dienste se visie, missie en beginsels is
daarop gerig om die kliëntsisteem van die beste dienste te voorsien.
Die Departement Maatskaplike Dienste en Armoedeverligting se dilemma lê juis hierin dat
daar nie 'n handleiding met riglyne bestaan ten einde gestruktureerde supervisie te doen nie.
Hierdie navorsing is gerig op die noodsaaklikheid van riglyne vir die beoefening van
maatskaplikewerk-supervisie ten einde kliëntediens te verbeter.
Ten einde riglyne daar te stel, fokus die literatuurstudie op 'n bespreking van die struktuur
van die Departement Maatskaplike Dienste en Armoedeverligting en die wyse waarop
maatskaplikewerk-supervisie binne hierdie struktuur verrig word. Die aard van supervisie
word ook teoreties bespreek ten einde teoretiese kennis uit te brei oor hoe supervisie behoort
gedoen te word.
Die teoretiese deel van die verslag word uitgebrei in die empiriese ondersoek, deur ontleding
en bespreking van die resultate van die ondersoek. 'n Verkennende studie is benut en beide
kwalitatiewe en kwantitatiewe metodes is gebruik om die inligting van respondente te bekom.
Die bevindinge en resultate van die ondersoek is geanaliseer en vergelyk met die literatuur en
sekere aanbevelings is gemaak. Die bevindinge van hiedie studie kan as riglyn gebruik word vir die samestelling van 'n
supervisieprogram vir maatskaplike werkers in diens van die Departement Maatskaplike
Dienste en Armoedeverligting.
