《突破》雜誌是香港的出版史上，唯一的由基督教機構編製、在報公開發售的年輕人刊物。它由一群滿有使命感的青年基督徒於1974年創辦，一切從零開始，到1999年停刊時，雜誌已擁有萬千讀者，造就一代又一代的年輕人，更由一份雜誌發展成今天服務多元化的龐大機構。 《突破》是一份獨特的本土雜誌，植根基層，具使命感，目標清晰，內容跨越信仰、社會、文化和文學領域。本文借用呂西安戈德曼（Lucien Goldmann）的「發生論結構主義」（Structuralism Genetic）建立研究架構，並結合跨學科 、 文化史的研究方法及圖書館學編目理論等，有系統地檢視共 298 期的《突破》 期的《突破》 雜誌， 並達致四個成果 ：(1) 梳理《突破》的二十五年歷史。(2) 對雜誌進行主題分析，從微觀史的角度，探索香港七十至九十年代的社會變遷。(3) 運用模式及計量方法，具體地解釋何謂「福音預工」、其在《突破》如何運作。(4) 探討「突破人」在香港「後殖民時期」的身份認同。 今天， 《突破》雜誌既是具歷史價值的本土文獻，也香港人集體回憶。 文獻和回憶均需活化，透過學術研究，本文 總結「突破經驗」，啟發將來，讓《突破》的價值不斷延續。 關鍵詞：突破雜誌 蘇恩佩 發生論結構主義 圖書分類法 福音預工 社會關懷=Breakthrough was established in 1974 by a group of graduates from tertiary institutions with the mission of counteracting the contemporary mainstream culture. They started their works from a youth magazine. By stepping into the 21st Century, Breakthrough has developed to be a large non-profit making organization providing cultural and educational services for young people. This paper is to study the Breakthrough magazine from its founding in 1974 to its closing in 1999. The interdisciplinary study is based on Lucien Goldmann’s Structuralism Genetic as the main theoretical framework, while the library classification is applied to analyze the content of total 298 issues of the magazine. Research methods of cultural history are also applied for observing changes of the society in the decades. By adopting the mentioned approaches, this paper is to: 1) review the 25-year history of the magazine ; 2) observe the social and political changes of Hong Kong parallel with the content development of the magazine in the decades; 3) study the running of pre-evangelical publication; and 4) explore the identity of “HongkongeeChineseChristian in the post-colonial period. Breakthrough magazine now not only can be considered as a document with historical values, but also is the collective memory of Hong Kong people. What happened in the past of Breakthrough can be preserved as wisdom to help mankind shape future.

This study outlines and evaluates a twelve week sociodrama programme aimed at creating cross-cultural awareness amongst adolescents. Three experimental groups and two control groups were involved in this process. Sociodrama is an experiential method of group work that utilises member strengths and experiences to create "shared" or "collective" dramas or enactments. Individual therapy is not involved. The process is "member-driven", with the director acting in an egalitarian manner as facilitator. Once the warm-up and enactments have occured, group members discuss the learning and exchange ideas about the process. This includes three methods of "learning" - behavioural, cognitive and affective. This study confirms that sociodrama is an effective method of creating crosscultural awareness amongst adolescents. / Social Work / M.A. (Mental Health)

O questionário permitiu identificar informações que serviram para análise e discussão dos resultados da pesquisa. A população pesquisada contou com 50 egressos desligados nos últimos cinco anos, escolhidos de forma aleatória, de ambos os sexos. Observou-se uma contribuição significativa ao egresso, tanto na oportunidade, como na continuidade de seu crescimento profissional. A pesquisa indicou um sentimento de gratidão dos egressos, o que representou que o trabalho desenvolvido pela entidade pode ser considerado relevante e que sua estrutura está atualmente condizente com as necessidades de desenvolvimento dos jovens atendidos por ela.

M.A. / 1. Motivering vir die studie Die studie is ingelei met ‘n beskrywing van die historiese ontwikkeling van skool maatskaplike werk in onderwys. Daar was bevind dat die doelwitte en die karakter van skool maatskaplike groepwerk gerig is op terapie, en daarop gemik is om probleme te eliminieer wat skoliere moontlik kan kortwiek in hul skool werk. Groepwerk in die verband is ook daarop gerig om die individu in te sluit in ‘n groep sodat hy deel kan voel van die gemeenskap. In Suid Afrikaanse konteks is daar reeds geweldige vooruitgang gemaak in die geskiedenis van die Opvoedkunde, maar skool maatskaplike werk figureer steeds nie in die ontwikkelinge nie. Sommige privaat skole in Suid Afrika het hul eie residensiële maatskaplike werkers. Skole tans steun steeds meestal op die Voorligting onderwyser/es om leerlinge by te staan deur moeilike tye en om hulle toe te rus met die nodige vaardighede vir die toekoms. Tog blyk dit dat meeste van die onderwysers nie oor die nodige vaardighede beskik om leerlinge te help deur hulle toe te rus met die nodige vaardighede om moeilike tye te oorkom nie. Verder blyk dit dat programme wat tans aangebied word, nie in die behoeftes van die leerlinge voldoen nie. In die verlede was Voorligting geïgnoreer as skoolvak. Lewensvaardighede was selde aangebied in skole, en het nie deel gevorm van die skoolkurrikulum nie. Die aanleer van lewensvaardighede was oorgelaat aan toeval. Ervaringsleer is baie suksesvol in groepwerk konteks. Alle lewensvaardigheids klasse is gebaseer op die groepwerk metode. Leerlinge het ervaring daarvan om deel van ‘n groep te wees in een of ander vorm, en daarom is die maatskaplike werk metode iets waarmee leerlinge hulself kan vereenselwig. 2. Doel van die studie Voortvloeiend uit die motivering, is die navorsingsdoel van die studie die ontwikkeling en die evalueering van ‘n lewensvaardigheidsopleidingsprogram. Die opleidingsprogram is bedoel vir graad agt seuns, en die program behoort deel van die totale skool kurrikulum uit te maak. 3. Die geïntegreerde ontwikkelings- en evalueeringsmodel Om uitvoering aan die doelstellings van die studie te gee, is ‘n geïntegreerde teoretiese ontwikkelingsnavorsings- en evalueeringsmodel gekonseptualiseer (Nel en Nel 1993; Nel 1992). Die model bestaan in hoofsaak uit Thomas (1984) se vierfase model, waarin ‘n analise-, ontwerp-, ontwikkeling- en evalueeringsfase figureer. In elkeen van die fases word ‘n aantal materiële voorvereistes gestel, asook metodologieë deur middel waarvan daar aan die voorvereistes voldoen kan word. Aangesien ‘n program as deel van die totale skoolkurrikulum daargestel moes word, is daar in die ontwerpfase van Thomas (1984) se metodologieë afgewyk en hoofsaaklik op opleidingsmodelle in die Bedryfsielkunde asook kurrikuleringsnavorsing in die Opvoedkunde gesteun. De Vos (1991) se Geïntegreerde Model van Programevaluering is vir die evalueeringsfase geselekteer. 4. Die analisefase In die eerste fase is ‘n ontleding van die opleidingsprobleem onderneem, die stand van bestaande programme is ondersoek en ‘n uitvoerbaarheidstudie is onderneem en op grond waarvan daarna besluit is om met die ontwerpfase voort te gaan. 5. Die Ontwerpfase In hierdie fase is daar aan die volgende materiële voorvereistes voldoen, te wete doelstellings en doelwitte is vir die program geformuleer, ‘n praktykmodel is opgestel, ‘n tentatiewe voorstelling van die innovasie is gemaak, en die innovasieprosedures is bepaal. Wat die praktykmodel betref, is ‘n geïntegreerde praktykmodel gekonseptualiseer wat as verklaringsmodel gedien het waarbinne die inhoude van die laboratotiumprogram verantwoord kon word. Uit die praktykmodel is kritieke rolbeskrywings afgelei, asook ‘n vaardigheidsrepertoire is opgestel wat in die program aangespreek work. Gedurende die ontwerpfase was dit ook nodig om die bepaling van programinhoude, die spesifisering van onderigstrategieë en onderigbronne te doen. 6. Die ontwikkelingsfase Nadat ‘n ontwikkelingsplan geformuleer is, het daar ‘n operasionele voorbereiding ten opsigte van die beplande loodsgebruik en ontwikkelingstoetsing plaasgevind. Met implementering van die program het dit geblyk dat sekere verstellings nodig is. Insluitend in die ontwikkelingsfase is daar hoofsaaklik gekonsentreer op programmoniteringevalueering (kwalitatiewe ondersoek) en impakevalueering (kwantitatiewe ondersoek). Vir hierdie doeleindes is ‘n kwasi-eksperimentele navorsingsontwerp benut, waarin voorsiening gemaak is vir ‘n voor- en nameting. Die kontrolegroep het bestaan uit graad agt seuns van King Edward VII School. Die evalueringsinstrument waarvan gebruik gemaak was gedurende die impakevalueringsfase het die Psigo-sosiale Funksionerings Inventaris ingesluit, wat bestaan uit ‘n pen en papier selfevalueringsmetode wat gebruik work om sosiale funksionering te meet. Toepaslike hipoteses is geformuleer en die parametriese hipotese vir twee steekproewe gemiddelde toets: onafhanklike steekproewe is gebruik. 7. Hoofbevinding Daar is in hoofsaak bevind dat ‘n lewensvaardigheidsopleidingsprogram daargestel kon word wat in die navorsingsdoel beantwood het. Wat die programdoelstellings en –doelwitte betref, is bevind dat die program oor die algemeen aan die programdoelstellings en doelwitte beantwoord het / Prof. J.B.S Nel

This is a descriptive and analytical study of the twelve adolescents who have participated in the Independent Living Subsidy Program (ILSP) in the Model Cities area of Portland. It is an assessment of the program’s impact on the adolescents in working toward the goals of independence and self-sufficiency. The concept of a program which would subsidize out-of-home care for certain adolescents in living facilities of their own, with a measure of independence, was conceived by a caseworker at the Children’s Services Division (CSD) and an administrator of a children’s residential care facility.
