Higher Education in the melting pot
The idea of this book emerged from the Education Deans Forum (EDF) meeting held in Johannesburg in 2018. The forum discussed the twin issues of the 4IR and Decolonisation and how these were likely to impact the future development of Higher Education in South Africa. Essentially, this book provides scholarly analyses of a range of possible impacts of the two discourses. On one hand, the discourses are discussed as representing convergences and divergences in relation to their epistemological, ontological, axiological and methodological assumptions. On the other, they are portrayed as competing for dominance in the contemporary and future discourses in Higher Education. As a scholarly compilation of high-end research, the book is a must-read resource for academics generally and those in teacher education disciplines particularly. Issues of the automation of academic workspaces, impact of digital divides, the opportunities and constraints of the technologisation of curricula, pedagogies, teaching and learning and the intractable challenges of remote modalities of university instruction are dealt with by some of the leading thinkers in the South African academies.
Innovations in online teaching and learning
This book’s research is on online pedagogical approaches devised by teacher educators and researchers to circumvent a face-to-face curriculum delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic. The challenge faced by educators was that they were uncertain of how to use digital technologies in teaching, learning and assessment productively. This book reports on case studies on teaching student teachers with technology in a way that advanced not only communication but also the cognitive growth of students in relation to disciplinary knowledge. The scholars from South African universities used both conceptual and empirical methodologies, mostly in qualitative set-ups. The scholarly contributions in this b...
Mobile Devices in a Blended Learning Environment in Higher Education
The use of mobile devices, in the South African context, has not yet been fully exploited. There is a need, in higher education, for mobility between places of study. This is especially true for students busy with their veterinary studies at a faculty of veterinary science at a South African university. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore how mobile devices and applications could be used to benefit teaching and learning practices in this blended learning environment. In line with the qualitative nature of the study, a series of case studies were explored and data were collected from student experiences as they worked with mobile devices in their various educational environmen...
Using Mobile Phones as Interactive Learning Tools
This mini-dissertation describes opportunities to use mobile phones as interactive learning tools. Anecdotal evidence shows that almost all undergraduate students at the Tshwane University of Technology have mobile phones, while on the contrary, only a small percentage have access to a personal computer, let alone access to resources. Interaction between the lecturer and the students is low, communication after lecturing hours is difficult and access to additional or just-in-time learning material is limited to hand-outs given during a formal class period. The challenge is that interaction between lecturers and students is limited to formal learning spaces and times, e.g., lecture rooms and laboratories. Nevertheless, learning is not confined to formal spaces and times. In this mini-dissertation the focus is, on how a mobile phone can be used to provide access to learning material, provide last minute or just-in-time information and improve the communication between lecturer and student, outside of the formal class time and space.

Renegade
He emerged from obscurity during the Pleistocene. With a weapon in his hands and a battle-cry on his lips he announced his arrival. Kill or be killed was the code he lived and died by. He would leave a swath of death and destruction in his quest to fulfill his destiny. Man was his name, and branded into his very soul was an instinct to kill his own kind...
