  • ICT) in South African Universities: a Comparison Study Among Selected Historically Black Universities (Hbus)
    Mar. 2006, Volume 3, No.3 (Serial No.16) US-China Education Review, ISSN1548-6613,USA Bridging the Digital Divide and the Use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in South African Universities: a Comparison Study among Selected Historically Black Universities (HBUs) and Historically White Universities (HWUs) Osunkunle, Oluyinka Oludolapo* University of Limpopo, South Africa Abstract: It has become common place for students in historically white universities (HWUs) in South Africa to have 24 hour access to computers, the Internet, e-learning facilities, check results online and even register online. However, historically black universities (HBUs) are still battling to have access to these facilities. On a macro level, the issue of lack of access to basic ICT facilities or digital divide exists. This is evident in the fact that developed nations like U.S.A and Switzerland have significant access to ICT, while under-developed nations in Africa like Ethiopia and Congo do not enjoy considerable access. On a micro level in South Africa, digital divide still exists. Even the divide exists among South African Universities as students in historically white institutions like Pretoria, Rhodes and Stellenbosch Universities enjoy unlimited access to ICT facilities like computers and the Internet. However, the reverse is the case in HBUs where access rate is very limited and personal observation bears this out as most historically black institutions like the University of Fort Hare, University of Limpopo, and University of Zululand, just to mention a few are still battling with the issue of access to ICT facilities. This paper presents the findings of a survey conducted to examine the present ICT status / capacity of HBUs compared to what exists in HWUs in South Africa.

  • PLAGIARISM at TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS: PERCEPTIONS of LECTURERS at the UFS CAMPUSES Communitas ISSN 1023-0556 2006 11: 37 - 51 Mercia Coetzee and H.J
    37 PLAGIARISM AT TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS: PERCEPTIONS OF LECTURERS AT THE UFS CAMPUSES Communitas ISSN 1023-0556 2006 11: 37 - 51 Mercia Coetzee and H.J. Breytenbach* ABSTRACT Plagiarism has increased alarmingly on campuses world-wide. The Internet has largely contributed to this problem. Students are able to download complete art i c l e s , assignments and essays from the WWW and present it as their own original work. Students also copy sections of articles and paste it into their assignments or dissertations without acknowledging sources. Additional pressure is placed on lecturers to trace the sources from which the work was copied. World-wide research has indicated that plagiarism occurs on nearly all campuses and that students are increasingly guilty of committing plagiarism. Electronic programmes for the detection of plagiarism are already in use on many European and American campuses, while only few South African universities utilise this facility. This study was undertaken to investigate the opinions of lecturers regarding the extent of plagiarism on the campuses of the University of the Free State. The prevalence of plagiarism, sources from which were plagiarised, and resultant steps that should be taken according to lecturers, were investigated. * Mercia Coetzee and Dr Manie Breytenbach lecture in the Department of Communication and Information Studies at the University of the Free State in Bloemfontein. 38 INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE Plagiarism is a world-wide problem that is increasingly being experienced at tertiary institutions. Although plagiarism is no new problem in the academic world, the Internet has given rise to a new generation of trespassers. Students who have Internet access are able to copy information on almost any subject directly from a web page and present it as their own.

  • JE Survey South Africa-2
    Journalism education survey: South Africa Compiled by Anthea Garman with Vanessa Malila, Mia van der Merwe & Jeanne du Toit, Rhodes University, School of Journalism & Media Studies 1. What is the framework of higher education and situating journalism education in that? South Africa’s education system is divided into three levels – primary, secondary and tertiary which consists of universities, universities of technology and further education and training colleges. Journalism education is taught in the universities and universities of technology. The universities of technology are fairly recent additions to the tertiary education framework and many of them were “merged” into already-existing universities under a plan to revise the academic landscape by the SA Minister of Education in 2003. Before the mergers they were called technikons and their journalism teaching components had a strong focus on practical journalism without the theoretical media studies, cultural studies or communication studies components other universities were teaching. Typically two years of study with one spent in a newsroom resulted in a diploma in journalism. When they were merged with other institutions or became universities of technology they began to offer degrees and so revised their curricula adding more theoretical courses to reflect this enhanced status. Many of these institutions still produce graduates considered by many editors as more likely to “hit the ground running” when they apply for jobs in South African newsrooms (see http://mg.co.za/article/2007-10-16-the-best-journalism-schools-in-sa ). The universities consist of both public institutions and private institutions although there are few of these (among them Monash, an Australian university, Midrand and Varsity College) and private institutions did not exist in this arena until the post-apartheid era.
