In today’s multicultural and inclusive classrooms, educators are faced with more challenges than ever before. Besides being interpreters and implementers of the curriculum, teachers need to understand curriculum design, curriculum approaches and models, legislation and prescribed policies. Curriculum studies in context offers sound, detailed and practical direction with reference to the CAPS, to help teachers to enhance teaching, learning and assessment.
Curriculum studies in context narrows the gap between the curriculum plan, instructional design and teaching practice. The views of Tyler, Stenhouse, Freire and various ubuntu theorists serve as a theoretical grounding for a deeper understanding of the teacher’s role as interpreter of the curriculum. Reference is made to the influence of contextual aspects, decolonisation, Africanisation and curriculum innovation.
Contents include the following:
- The theoretical framing of curriculum design
- Understanding the curriculum in context
- The role of ubuntu principles in curriculum design and innovation
- Considering policy documents during curriculum interpretation and implementation
- Practical guidance for curriculum innovation towards effective teaching, learning and assessment
Curriculum studies in context is aimed at teachers in the General Education and Training (GET) and Further Education and Training (FET) phases.
In 2021, South Africa celebrated 27 years as a democratic state. The number 27 has a symbolic value in the liberation history of the Republic as it reflects the number of years spent in prison by former President Nelson Mandela prior to his release and South Africa’s transition. In 1994 Madiba magic was in full force and many observers reflected on the miraculous birth of the democratic state. In 2018, President Cyril Ramaphosa similarly spoke of a “New Dawn” in South Africa, and drawing on the moral authority and memory of Mandela, pledged to turn the tide in South African governance, in reference to the dark clouds of corruption hanging over the previous, Jacob Zuma, administration. The year 2021 also saw the 25th commemoration of South Africa’s much-celebrated Constitution, lauded for its progressive and transformative nature. However, despite varied attempts by the Ramaphosa administration to instil renewed confidence in the South African leadership, local government elections in 2021 revealed votership that was simply not interested, and diverse actors who were unwilling to support the proclaimed New Dawn, and the call for Thuma Mina! (send me).
This updated edition incorporates the Cyril Ramaphosa administration’s years in office so far. The chapters continue to reflect on the concepts, institutions, structures, policy and theories that characterise the South African governance, policy and political landscapes. They also consider, in part, the global COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on South Africa’s domestic and foreign contexts, and the South African government’s responses to this pandemic.
Employment relations derives from the fields of industrial and labour relations, the latter of which have both been deemed demeaning to human beings as workers/employees.
South African labour relations history is also regarded as having been degrading to workers, specifically migrant, black and unskilled labours. After decades of research, psychologists and sociologists have been able to show employers, managers and supervisors the importance of understanding human behaviour in fostering a workplace characterised by high job satisfaction, employee commitment and engagement. Employment relations in South Africa: a psychological perspective explores the ramifications of the past while promoting collaboration between employment relations and psychology toward more productive and harmonious employment relationships.
Employment relations in South Africa: a psychological perspective considers questions such as the following:
- What is the link between psychology and employment relations?
- Is psychology important to the field of employment relations?
- Why were industrial psychologist contributions previously neglected by trade unions?
- Why did psychologists and sociologists contribute less to industrial/labour relations in the past?
Employment relations in South Africa: a psychological perspective is aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students, and will also serve as a valuable resource to human resource practitioners, psychologists, industrial psychologists, shop stewards, trade union officials, labour or employment relations consultants, and managers.

Zambezi is die eerste reisbeskrywing in Afrikaans in jare. M.C.
Botha, skepper van fiksie, het per Kombi deur Suid-Afrika, Zimbabwe
en Botswana getoer en sy waarnemings onvervals neergepen. Hoe hy
ontvang is by doeane en padblokkades en deur gewone mense; wat
Radio Moskou na Afrika uitsaai en wat die media in Zimbabwe van
Suid-Afrika se; hoe wild en ongerep wildtuine noord van die Limpopo
nog is, hoe gevaarlik gebiede waar die gewapende onrus is. Zambezi
is 'n interessante tydsdokument, onderhoudend geskryf en aangevul
met foto's wat die skrywer self geneem het.
