A formative student evaluation of the individual courses within the Masters Degree in Technology : HomoeopathyRichard, Kashi Bhavana 16 April 2012 (has links)
M.Tech. / Course evaluation and student feedback forms an important part of any quality assurance programme in education. Since the Master of Technology Degree in Homoeopathy (M Tech Hom) commenced at the Technikon Witwatersrand (TWR) in 1993, no formal evaluation process with regard to programme quality has been conducted. The aim of this study was to conduct a formative student evaluation of the individual courses constituting the Master of Technology Degree in Homoeopathy offered through the Department of Homeopathy at the University of Johannesburg. The sample group consisted of the 2006 homoeopathy students registered for the following subjects offered through the Department of Homoeopathy: First Year: The Philosophy of Homoeopathy; Third year: Diagnostics, Psychopathology, Materia Medica, General Pathology, Systemic Pathology, Radiographic Anatomy, Auxiliary Therapeutics; Fourth year (B Tech): Diagnostics, Clinical Homoeopathy, Homoeopharmaceutics, Materia Medica, Research Methods & Techniques; Fifth year (M Tech): Practice Management and Jurisprudence, Clinical Homoeopathy, Materia Medica This was a descriptive study with both qualitative and quantitative aspects. For each subject, a survey was conducted using a questionnaire. The research proved to be very useful in highlighting the problem areas within the subjects offered through the Department of Homoeopathy as part of the M Tech Hom Degree. Several general themes have emerged across all the years of the programme. These general themes were: a lack of helpful feedback from assessment tasks, inadequate learning guides, lack of well planned and organised practical sessions and a lack of co-ordination between lecturers offering various components of a subject .

Materia Medica III : 'n kurrikulumevalueringFourie, Daniel Johannes 18 August 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Curriculum Studies) / History was made when the Technlkon Natal in January 1989, after approval of the relevant curricula by the Minister of National Education, became the first institution in the Western World to offer an independent tertiary course in homoeopathy. After completion of the five year course, followed by a one year internship, students will be registered with the South African Associated Health Service Professions Board. Homoeopathy originated in Germany when its founder, Samuel Hahnemann (1755 - 1843) rediscovered the principle on which homoeopathy is based - "SimiIia simiIibus curentur": Let likes be cured by likes. In homoeopathy a patient is treated by administering those drugs that could cause similar conditions in a healthy person, to the patient in minute doses. The Materia Medica I I I curriculum is being introduced in 1991. The question posed and researched in this thesis is to what extent the curriculum design complies with curriculum principles. The aim is to evaluate the abovementioned curriculum. To achieve this aim, the following objectives are set:- - to determine the principles involved in the planning and design of a curriculum; - to determine the criteria with which a curriculum should comply; - to determine specific demands and problems posed by the subject; - to establish how and to what extent the Materia Medica III curriculum complies with the criteria and demands; - to make recommendations for the possible improvement of the curriculum. This study is unique in the sense that the curriculum is being implemented this year. Generally accepted models are therefore not applicable and an evaluation instrument has to be developed. The method of enquiry to be followed is mainly a Iiterature study and structured interviews wiII also be conducted.
