  • Curriculum Vitae Distinguished Professor Heila Lotz-Sisitka Updated July 2018
    Curriculum Vitae Distinguished Professor Heila Lotz-Sisitka Updated July 2018 South African National Research Foundation Chair (Tier 1) Transformative Social Learning and Green Skills Learning Pathways Summary Narrative Overview and Early Career I started my career in primary education, working with young children to expand their learning horizons through creative, critical approaches to learning. This led me into a postgraduate and post-doctoral career trajectory where I was able to expand my interest in primary education to wider forms of education and learning, all of which have centred on how human relations with the environment shape learning and transformation of society towards social justice, sustainability and the common good. My Masters degree focused on critical, democratic and participatory approaches to working with environmental knowledge in learning support materials development with foundation phase teachers in post-apartheid curriculum settings. The project spanned five years, and grew into a national initiative to strengthen curriculum transformation. The study was unanimously recommended for upgrading to PhD by all examiners. This launched me into an active professional career in participation oriented approaches to environment and sustainability education research that has spanned all levels and types of education, including early learning, general education and training, higher education, community education, and conservation education. Most recently I have also become more involved in vocational and workplace learning as the green economy has emerged as a significant driver of potential just transitions in post-apartheid South Africa, and the skills system was found to be largely re-active to environment and sustainability concerns. My current research focusses on global change and social learning systems, with emphasis on transformative social learning and green skills learning pathways.

The rapidly evolving Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) brings with it unanticipated opportunities, while the uncertain, changed world in which we are living requires of all us to be innovative, transformative and inclusive, and to engage with the issues and opportunities of our time. The Faculty of Science at Nelson Mandela University is, accordingly, in the process of finalising our Strategy and Vision 2030. Within its core ideology is the basic principle and philosophy of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Science. Within this broad philosophy and principle lies gender equity which should be addressed through our three focus areas of Learning & Teaching, Research, Training and Innovation, and Engagement and Partnerships. We are striving towards diversity in its holistic sense.

  • The Critical Tradition at Rhodes University: Retrospect and Prospect
    Af ri can So cio log i cal Re view, 9, (1), 2005, pp.1-13. The Critical Tradition at Rhodes University: Retro spect and Prospect Fred Hendricks Dean of Hu man ities Man aging Ed i tor, Af ri can So cio log i cal Re view Rhodes Uni ver sity Pe ter Vale Nel son Mandela Chair of Po lit i cal Studies Rhodes Uni ver sity Intro duction Steven Bantu Biko came to Rhodes University in 1967 as a University of Natal (Black Section) delegate at a NUSAS (National Union for South African Students) congress held in Grahamstown. He discovered that apartheid was alive and well at Rhodes. In observing a segre ga tionist ruling, the university had prohibited accom mo dation for blacks on campus. Biko, together with other student delegates from Wentworth (Natal), put forward a motion to adjourn the conference and simul ta neously invited his fellow white delegates to join him at a non-racial venue in the nearby townships of Grahamstown. The motion was defeated. It was a critical moment in the history of student and black struggles in South Africa. There were two major conse quences of this decision by the white-dominated student body. Firstly, it exposed the very severe limits or even irrel e vance of liber alism in the face of the racist repression of apartheid; and secondly, it set in motion a trajectory of independent black-led struggles which were vital to the eventual demise of apartheid in 1994. Biko left NUSAS and two years later launched the South African Students’ Organi sation (SASO) at the University of the North (Turfloop).

  • One Hundred Years of Botany at Rhodes University
    Rhodes Centenary South African Journal of Science 100, November/December 2004 609 One hundred years of botany at Rhodes University Roy Lubke * and Estelle Brinkb The Botany Department of Rhodes University is located in the historic Schonland Building. An indigenous garden was created in its courtyard, mainly of species of the Eastern Cape province, and its growth in diversity and stature mirrors the changes in the department over the years. Professor Selmar Schonland, the founding father of botany at Rhodes, was also the curator/director of the Albany Museum. Under his leadership, systematics was firmly established as a discipline at Rhodes and research on the flora of the Eastern Cape begun, to be continued to this day. Under professors William Isaac (1949–1951) and Edgar Twyman (1951–1973), plant physiology became an important area of study, and future leaders in physiology at other universities obtained de- grees under them. Phycology and aquatic ecology became notable disciplines with Mary Pocock’s world-class work in the 1940s on freshwater and marine algae, which inspired others such as head of department Professor Stanley Seagrief (1958–1986) to develop these studies further. Mycology and microbiology were established as major subdisciplines under Noel Smith (1926–1948) and Twyman through to the 1960s, when the Department of Microbiology was es- tablished. Early studies in ecology owe their success to TonyMartin (1947–1956) and the link with the Grahamstown Botanical Research Station, when a sound base for plant ecology in the Eastern Cape was established. Coastal ecology became a major focus in the 1970s, when Roy Lubke and Ted Avis concentrated on dunes and the management of coastal regions.

    South African Female Subjectivity (1868-1977): Life Writing, the Agentive “I” and Recovering Stories Lizelle Smit Dissertation presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisors: Dr Mathilda Slabbert and Prof Louise Viljoen April 2019 The financial assistance of the National Institute for the Humanities and Social Sciences, in collaboration with the South African Humanities Deans Association towards Lizelle Smit’s research is hereby acknowledged. Opinions expressed and conclusions arrived at are those of the author and are not necessarily to be attributed to the NIHSS and SAHUDA. Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this dissertation, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. October 2018 Signed: Lizelle Smit Copyright © 2019 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This dissertation investigates the formation of white female subjectivity in the life writing of three South African women, penned between 1868 and 1977. The subjects are: Betty Molteno (1852- 1927), Hettie Smit (1908-1973) and Joyce Waring (1914-2003). I consider subjectivity formation as contingent on geo-cultural, historical, ethnic and socio-political contexts, as well as cultural and political markers of identity such as race, gender and ethnicity.
