An analysis of policy development within the Centre for Adult Education at the University of Natal (1971-1991)Mackie, Robin Duncan Alfred January 1995 (has links)
Bibliography: pages 181-189. / The construction of macro level policy is made more difficult by the absence of a reservoir of analytical accounts which raise issues which policy at that level must address. This study is concerned with the development of policy within a very specific context and as such it is a modest and limited contribution to the development of that reservoir of theorised practice of adult education in South Africa. In this it is both a documentary record of the development of adult education at the University of Natal and an exploration of the dynamics of the policies which were evolved to direct that development. The study is thus a descriptive and analytical account of the work of the Centre for Adult Education at the University of Natal over the 20 year period from 1971 to 1991 set against the context of the broad development of adult education in South Africa in general and developments in university based adult education development in particular.

University adult education approches: developing a model for the Qwa-qwa campus of the University of the NorthMatobako, Thabang Sello 22 May 2014 (has links)
This study develops a model for university adult education to guide the Qwa-Qwa Campus of
the University of the North in its quest to play a role in adult education practice. It explores
the route that the Qwa-Qwa Campus could take in extending its resources to a wide range of
individuals, special interest groups and targeted audiences in the North-Eastern Free State
community that was historically marginalised from university education.
In developing the envisaged model the study explores a number of international and local (South
African) approaches in university adult education. This academic endeavour is intended to
provide some guidelines for the Qwa-Qwa Campus’ envisaged role in university adult education.
In pursuance of these aims (lie study investigates the typical role that a university plays in adult
education by reflecting on the following issues:
_ University outreach
__ Distance education
_ University Extension programmes / service
_ University adult and ccntmuing education
_ Universities and communities
__ Sources o f funding for university adult education practice.
A review of literature including a home-page survey are used as methodologies of unravelling
typical University Adult Education approaches of four universities in Australia ii(La Trobe,
Deakin, Ballarat and Charles'STtirt), one university in the United States of America (Tuskegee),
two universities in Southe; s Africa (Botswana and Lesotho) and four Universities in South
, . . Africa (Western Cape, Cape ToWd, Witwatersrand and Transkei).
Key people at selected South African Universities actively involved in adult education practice
were interviewed. Three people fi/nn the community were interviewed to assess the needs of
surrounding people in the Qwa-Qwa area. The study brings these elements together in an
attempt to develop a realistic model for the involvement of the Qwa-Qwa Campus in adult
education.
