  • 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.

  • Introduction Reckoning with Apartheid the Conundrum of Working Through the Past
    Comparative Studies of South Asia, Africa and the Middle East APARTHEID RECKONING Introduction Reckoning with Apartheid The Conundrum of Working through the Past Anne- Maria B. Makhulu his themed section of Comparative Studies of South Asia, Africa and the Middle East, titled “Reckon- ing with Apartheid: The Conundrum of Working through the Past,” comes at a very particular T moment in South Africa’s “long walk to freedom.”1 Only recently, South Africans celebrated two decades of democracy. This was an enormous achievement, following almost four hundred years of colo- nial rule that reshaped everything from understandings of land ownership to national sovereignty, race, and the very definition of what it means to be human. Yet South Africa’s transition to democracy appears increasingly marked by significant failure — and by this I mean a failure to fully transcend history — even as some are willing to claim that the past is indeed the past. Or, as Sarah Nuttall has proposed, that the value of symptomatic reading has been eclipsed by a newer focus on “surfaces” and “edges.”2 That the past, certainly in the interpretive practice of reading that Nuttall proposes, might be superseded by a certain flatness of historical dimension has significant implications for the meaning of the “post” in “postapartheid.” For Nuttall the symptomatic reading is assumed to be Freudian or Marxian. Here, I am less concerned with the psychoanalytic dimension and more so with Marx’s historicism. True, the “sur- faces” of contemporary South African life are easily accessed. Yet their legibility, in the sense of how they might be interpreted — in other words, what they refer to — is often less evident.

Without Him, this study would not have been possible. I would like to acknowledge everybody that contributed to this study and the completion thereof. In particular, I would like to thank the following people: • My supervisor, Prof Gary van Vuuren, for the guidance throughout the study. I am grateful for all the feedback, knowledge and support in every aspect of this dissertation, • My co-supervisor, Dr André Heymans, for his contribution, especially in the beginning of the study, • Prof Paul Styger, for the support and drive to start with the study, • Marlise, for the moral support in good and difficult times, • My parents and in-laws, for their continuous support throughout the study, • Friends and family for their continuous support. i Abstract South Africa is ranked 146 th out of a total of 148 countries by the World Economic Forum for its education system and last in science and mathematics, and yet the government spends up to a fifth of its budget on education. Only 40% of pupils who start schooling in grade 1 will pass matric (grade 12), with just 12% maintaining high enough marks to qualify for university entrance. Any research to boost learning in South Africa, at any level, should be welcomed.

  • Student Responses to Apartheid at the University of Fort Hare
    1 Pamela Johnson DISSIDENTS AND DISSENTERS: Senior Lecturer, Department of Political STUDENT RESPONSES TO Science and International APARTHEID AT THE UNIVERSITY Relations, University of Fort Hare. OF FORT HARE Email: [email protected] DOI: https://dx.doi. Abstract org/10.18820/24150509/ As the only university for black students in Southern Africa JCH44.v1.1 in the first half of the twentieth century, the University of ISSN 0258-2422 (Print) Fort Hare is the alma mater of prominent African leaders ISSN 2415-0509 (Online) and intellectuals. It is also known for the role played by students in the struggle against the apartheid state that Journal for Contemporary seized control over the university in 1960. However, the History common representation of students as unified in resistance 2019 44(1):1-25 belies the fact that the student body was divided, with © Creative Commons With many reluctant to participate in protests during the Attribution (CC-BY) apartheid era. These students were named ‘dissenters’ by the activists – termed ‘dissidents’ by the author – as they were considered as obstructing the struggle for freedom. Utilising the Gramscian approach to the exercise of hegemony in the form of the reasons for conformity proposed by Joseph Femia, this paper examines the actions and behaviour of both the dissidents and dissenters, based on documents that comprised the personal files of the apartheid era rectors (1960 to 1990). These files contained letters, memoranda and minutes of meetings, notes and telegrams, as well as confiscated student posters and letters from students directed to the rectors. The findings propose that the behaviour of dissenters was based on either the fear of possible repercussions of opposing the apartheid system or the desire not to sacrifice small gains that had been made.

  • Confined Destiny of Historical Studies at the University of Fort Hare, 1960
    1 AUTHOR: UNFULFILLED POTENTIAL: Luvuyo Wotshela1, CONFINED DESTINY OF AFFILIATION: 1Professor and Head at HISTORICAL STUDIES AT THE National Heritage and UNIVERSITY OF FORT HARE, Cultural Studies Centre (NAHECS), University of 1960 -2015 Fort Hare EMAIL: ABSTRACT [email protected] Recently, there are growing countrywide dialogues within several universities, and certainly at the University of Fort DOI: https://dx.doi. Hare about curricula review and realignment of academic org/10.18820/24150509/ departments. History is central to such discussions, and SJCH45.v2.1 in this institution, it is not simply as a scholarly discipline, linked to teaching and research. Indeed, the identity of ISSN 0258-2422 (Print) Fort Hare, as the first African institution of higher learning ISSN 2415-0509 (Online) in the sub-Sahara makes its legacy even gripping. Southern Journal for Almost every epoch of the evolution of Fort Hare had generational imprint: from the first half of the twentieth Contemporary History century whereby it surpassed its mission origin, to an 2020 45(2):1-32 institution with several individuals entwined to continental developments, and national political movements in PUBLISHED: the later decades. When it became a conventional case of National Party (NP) government control and 30 December 2020 influence, albeit with resistance from 1960, it forged another character, reflected by Afrikaner domination of academia and the rerouting thereof, for social and political control, whilst being aligned to apartheid policy. The remodelling of the institution in the era of democratic South Africa, germinated other facets, on various fronts as the institution had to reposition itself to new realities that continue to test centres of higher education, whilst still demanding clearer academic vision.
