The Liesbeek River Valley
\ UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN FACULTY OF EDUCATION THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF THE LIESBEEK RIVER VALLEY An investigation of the use of an Environmental History approach in ·historical research and in classroom practice A dissertation presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of M.Ed in History Education \ -...... by JEAN ·BOTIARO MARCH 1996 ' f . , ,:.,- I'.! ' . t. c .-: . The copyright of this thesis vests in the author. No quotation from it or information derived from it is to be published without full acknowledgement of the source. The thesis is to be used for private study or non- commercial research purposes only. Published by the University of Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. This dissertation has two components, one History and one Education, and the central unifying theme is Environmental History. The History component examines the historiography of this sub-discipline, and then applies an environmental analysis as an example of its use in historical research. The second component explores the use of Environmental History in the teaching of school history, and presents a curriculum model which uses this approach. Both components use the Liesbeek River valley in the Cape Peninsula as a case-study. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I need to start off by thanking the person who provided the spark from which this dissertation grew: in June 1994, when I was rather desperately casting about for a research topic which would satisfy both the historical and education components of the course, Howard Phillips of the History Department at UCT mentioned the term "Environmental History". -

2016 – 2017 Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan
2016 – 2017 SERVICE DELIVERY AND BUDGET IMPLEMENTATION PLAN The Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan for The City of Cape Town 2016/2017 CONSIDERED BY THE EXECUTIVE MAYOR EXECUTIVE MAYOR NOT APPROVED COMMENT: DATE MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE MAYOR We have officially reached the final lap of the Integrated Development Plan term, and what a journey it has been. This time has offered us learnings and lessons gained from our accomplishments and our shortcomings. The City’s Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan (SDBIP) gives practical effect to our Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and budget. Its processes and frameworks are used as the benchmarks of service delivery, ensuring the accountability of the administration and its officials and quality services to all citizens of Cape own.T When we drew up the Integrated Development Plan in 2011 we set out to implement 294 initiatives after extensive public participation. I am pleased to announce that as of May 2016, we have already implemented 97% of those. We have achieved this with more than 13 months left until the deadline for completion which is June 2017. I would like to congratulate every single employee for this outstanding achievement. It showcases our commitment to being a responsive government and one which works tirelessly to deliver on the commitments it made to the people it serves. This is the hallmark of a Caring and Well-Run City. The SDBIP gives us the opportunity to promote a purpose and results driven culture within our organisation. This enables us to see our challenges as opportunities, to implement new methodologies, and to refine our service delivery strategy. -

Young, Gifted and Black ∗ Oral Histories of Young Activists in Cape Town and Durban in the early 1970s By Carmel T. M. Chetty Student No. 202520212 In partial completion of Master of Education Degree ∗ Acknowledgement to Nina Simone’s song that was very inspirational during this period: (W. Irvine/N. Simone) Ivan Mogull Music Ltd. EMI Tunes Pic. 1 This dissertation is dedicated to Krishna Rabilal, who was murdered on 30 January 1981 in, Matola, Mozambique by the South African Defence Force. We honour his heroism and memory through recording the stories of some of his contemporaries. It is solely by risking life that freedom is obtained… the individual who has not staked his life may, no doubt, be recognised as a person; but he has not attained the truth of this recognition as an independent self-consciousness. (Hegel: The Phenomenology of the Mind) 2 Declaration of Originality I, Carmel T. M. Chetty (Student No.: 202520212), declare that this research titled: Young, Gifted and Black. Oral Histories of Young Activists in Cape Town and Durban in the early 1970s is my own work and that all sources quoted have been duly acknowledged. This research was duly given ethical clearance by the Department of Humanities in 2005. Signed:_______________________________ Date:_________________________________ Supervisor: Crispin Hemson Co-Supervisor: Dennis Francis 3 Acknowledgements I wish to express my indebtedness to: − All the respondents in this study for their trust and courage in speaking to me about their early lives and revolutionary activities during the period which has been incorrectly described as ‘The Fifteen Year Night After Sharpeville’1 I wish to also express my heartfelt gratitude to those who had to relive the trauma of arrests, detentions, security police tortures and almost death. -

CPT City of Cape Town SDBIP 2014 2015
2014 – 2015 SERVICE DELIVERY AND BUDGET IMPLEMENTATION PLAN The Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan for the City of Cape Town 2014/2015 MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE MAYOR We have undertaken an ambitious programme of governance in the city. That programme has been to turn the five pillars into a development programme until 2016. Those pillars are: the opportunity city; the safe city; the caring city; the inclusive city; and the well-run city. I think we have achieved a great deal. The IDP maps out our goals, plans and ambitions for the remainder of this term, which is already well under way. I believe that we have achieved something quite unique in local government in South Africa and what national legislation actually intended: the complete alignment of democratic will into a programme of government. But having put in place this great plan, we need to know that it is working. We need to see the outcomes that we are delivering to the people, for their own benefit and for our own progress reports. These outcomes must be assessed by a monitoring and evaluation framework that can help flag our priority areas and provide baselines and targets against which we measure our performance. That means having a scorecard that we can monitor, a scorecard that becomes the living document of delivery. We do operate with certain realities. The Auditor- General requires strict monitoring of things that are measurable in order to determine compliance and sound government. We support those principles but in as much as we satisfy the Auditor General, we must satisfy our own purposes too. -
I Cataloguing Practices from Creation To
Cataloguing practices from creation to use: A study of Cape Town Metropolitan Public Libraries in Western Cape Province, South Africa by Madireng Jane Monyela Student number: 215081797 Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Information Studies) in the School of Social Sciences, College of Humanities, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa Supervisor: Prof. Stephen Mutula ---------------------------------------------- June, 2019 i Abstract Cataloguing is the process of creating metadata representing information sources such as books, sound recordings, digital video disks (DVDs), journals and other materials found in a library or group of libraries. This process requires the use of standardised cataloguing tools to achieve the bibliographic description, authority control, subject analysis and assignment of classification notation to generate a library catalogue. The well-generated library catalogue serves as an index of a collection of information sources found in libraries that enables the library users to discover which information sources are available and where they are in the library. Such a catalogue should provide information such as the creators’ names, titles, subject terms, standard number, publication area, physical description and notes that describe those information sources to facilitate easy information retrieval. This study sought to investigate cataloguing practices from creation to use in Cape Town Metropolitan public libraries in South Africa with the aim -
