Housing education and training in the general education and training band of the national qualifications frameworkSerfontein, Michele 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD)--University of Stellenbosch, 2001. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The provision of housing in South Africa is a national priority. As many of the aspirant
homeowners are first-time homeowners, they are not necessarily informed about the
pitfalls of home ownership. From April 1994 till March 2000 the Department of Housing
approved more than 1,1 million housing subsidies. The recipients of these subsidies were
first-time homeowners that did not possess the necessary knowledge and skills to make
informed and responsible housing-related decisions, thus making them vulnerable to
exploitation and creating complex problems that hamper the housing delivery process.
The release of the National Housing Code during March 2000 announced that the South
African Government had harnessed seven strategies that were aimed at providing housing
to a growing low-income market that already exceeded two-and-a-half million
households. Although the Government has attempted short-term solutions aimed at
equipping these housing consumers with the necessary knowledge and skills to make
informed and responsible housing-related decisions, initial research pointed to the need
for a sustainable long-term solution in the form of education and training of the housing
consumer.
The aim of this research was three-fold: Firstly, to determine the knowledge and skills
required by the housing consumer to be able to make informed and responsible housingrelated
decisions. Secondly, to determine the status of housing education and training in
the present primary and secondary school curriculums. Thirdly, to develop an outcomesbased
model that would facilitate the inclusion of the identified and refined housing
education and training content into the General Education and Training (GET) Band of
the National Qualifications Framework (NQF).
A culturally diverse group of educators and practitioners participated in four national
structured group meetings that were facilitated using the Nominal Group Technique
(NGT). The aim of these meetings was to identify the knowledge and skills required by
consumers to be able to make informed and responsible housing-related decisions.
Sixteen housing education and training core concepts could be isolated using the responses generated during the meetings, namely: "Basic Housing Technology" (BHT),
"Community" (COMM), "Cultural Aspects of Housing" (CAH), "Environment" (ENV),
"Financial Aspects of Housing" (FAR), "Housing Consumerism" (HC), "Housing Design
and Decoration" (HDD), "Housing Market" (HM), "Housing Needs" (HN), "Housing
Policy" (HP), "Legal Aspects of Housing" (LAH), "Resource Management" (RM), "Role-
Players in Housing" (RP), "Sources of Housing Information" (SRI), "Tenure Options"
(TO) and "Types of Housing" (TH).
The document analysis performed in the second phase of the research, revealed the
paucity of housing education and training core concepts in the current curriculum of the
GET and Further Education and Training (FET) Bands of the NQF. Housing education
and training core concepts occurred in only 50% of the 318 core subject curriculums. Of
the housing education and training core concepts that were present in these documents,
less than 40% were rated as "relevant" and could therefore be used for housing education
and training of the learners.
An outcomes-based model was developed that can be used to facilitate the inclusion of
the housing education and training content into the Foundation, Intermediate and Senior
Phases of the GET Band using the Critical Cross-Field Outcomes, Learning Areas,
Specific Outcomes, Assessment Criteria, Performance Indicators, Phase and Programme
Organisers, currently included in the new curriculum. Outcomes were then developed
that reflected the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values embedded in the sixteen housing
education and training core concepts. The mastering of these 57 outcomes will reduce
the ignorance of first time homeowners during the housing process and provide a
sustainable, long-term solution to these problems . / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Behuisingsvoorsiening is 'n nasionale prioriteit in Suid-Afrika. Aangesien baie van die
aspirant huiseienaars, eerstemaal-huiseienaars is, is hulle nie altyd bewus van die slaggate
van huiseienaarskap nie. Vanaf April 1994 tot Maart 2000 het die Departement van
Behuising meer as 1,1 miljoen behuisingsubsidies goedgekeur. Die ontvangers van
hierdie behuisingsubsidies was eerstemaal-huiseienaars, en het nie die kennis en
vaardigdhede besit wat benodig word om ingeligte en verantwoordelike
behuisingsbesluite te neem nie. Daarom kan hulle blootgestel word aan uitbuiting, en is
komplekse probleme veroorsaak wat die behuisingsvoorsieningsproses negatief
beinvloed. Die vrystelling van die Nasionale Behuisingskode gedurende Maart 2000 het
aangetoon dat die Suid-Afrikaanse Regering sewe strategiee sou gebruik om behuising
aan die groeiende lae-inkomste behuisingsmark te voorsien, wat alreeds twee-en-'n-half
miljoen huishoudings behels het. Die Regering het al korttermyn oplossings op die proef
gestel wat daarop gemik is om behuisingsverbruikers met die nodige kennis en
vaardigdhede toe te rus om ingeligte en verantwoordelike behuisingsbesluite te neem.
Verkennende navorsing het getoon dat daar steeds 'n behoefte bestaan aan 'n langtermyn,
volhoubare oplossing in die vorm van opvoeding en opleiding van die
behuisingsverbruiker.
Die doel van hierdie navorsing was drie-voudig: Eerstens, om te bepaal watter kennis en
vaardighede die behuisingsverbruiker benodig om ingeligte en verantwoordelike
behuisingsbesluite te kan maak. Tweedens, om die stand van behuisingsinhoud in die
huidige primere- en sekondere skoolsillabus te ondersoek. Derdens, om 'n
uitkomsgerigte model te ontwikkel wat die insluiting van die geidentifiseerde en verfynde
behuisingsinhoud in die Algemene Onderwysvlak (AOV) van die Nasionale Kurrikulum
Raamwerk (NKR) sal bewerkstellig.
'n Kultureel diverse groep, wat bestaan het uit opvoeders en behuisingspraktisyns, het
deelgeneem aan vier nasionale gestruktureerde fokusgroeponderhoude wat deur middel
van die Nominale Groeptegniek (NGT) gefasiliteer is. Die doel van hierdie onderhoude was om vaardigdhede wat deur die verbruiker benodig word om ingeligte en
verantwoordelike behuisingsbesluite te neem, te identifiseer. Die inligting wat tydens
hierdie fokusgroeponderhoude ingewin is, is gebruik om sestien kembehuisingskonsepte
te identifiseer, naamlik "Basic Housing Technology" (BHT), "Community" (COMM),
"Cultural Aspects of Housing" (CAH), "Environment" (ENV), "Financial Aspects of
Housing" (FAH), "Housing Consumerism" (HC), "Housing Design and Decoration"
(HDD), "Housing Market" (HM), "Housing needs" (HN), "Housing Policy" (HP), "Legal
Aspects of Housing" (LAH), "Resource Management" (RM), "Role-players in Housing"
(RP), "Sources of Housing Information" (SID), "Tenure Options" (TO) en "Types of
Housing" (TH).
Die dokumentanalise in die tweede fase van die navorsing, het die huidige, gebrekkige
behuisingsopvoedingskomponent van die 'kemvakkurrikulums van laer- en hoerskole
uitgewys. Slegs 50% van die 318 kemvakkurrikulums het behuisingskonsepte bevat.
Minder as 40% van die behuisingskonsepte wat wel in hierdie kurrikulums verskyn het, is
as "relevant" geevalueer, en kon dus gebruik word vir die behuisingsopvoeding van die
leerders.
'n Model wat voldoen aan die vereistes van uitkomsgebaseerde onderwysmodelle is
ontwikkel om die insluiting van hierdie behuingsinhoud in die Grondslag-, Intermediere >-
en Senior Fases van die AOV te bewerkstellig. Daar is gebruik gemaak van bestaande
kurrikulumkonstrulcte van Kurrikulum 2005. Uitkomste is ontwikkel wat die kennis,
vaardigdhede, houdings en waardes, ingesluit in die kernkonsepte, weerspieel. Die
'. bemeestering van hierdie 57 uitkomste, sal die onkunde van eerstemaal-huiseienaars
gedurende die behuisingsproses verminder, asook 'n volhoubare, langtermyn oplossing
vir hierdie probleme daarstel.

Relationship between awareness and willingness to purchase green products.Mahlangu, Sfiso Goodman. January 2014 (has links)
M. Tech. Marketing / Environmental research has been growing fast in recent years, especially since global warming is becoming a major challenge to the world. Other problems include: damage to the environment, shortage of natural resources, and continuous climate change. Today, a large number of consumers around the world indicate that they are concerned about the environment; and they consider the environment in their purchasing decision-making. Furthermore, these consumers indicate that they are willing to pay more green products. This study focuses on awareness and the willingness to purchase green products of respondents residing in the City of Tshwane. Furthermore, significant linear relationships between the respondents' awareness, their willingness to purchase, the influence of green advertising, eco-labels, and the social factors in relation to green products were determined. Lastly, differences between respondents' demographic characteristics and their awareness and willingness to purchase green products were statistically analysed.

Kriteria vir 'n opleidingsprogram vir die opleier/voorligter van voedselverbruikers in private huishoudingsCrafford, Sharon January 1993 (has links)
Thesis (Masters Diploma (Technology) -- Cape Technikon, Cape Town, 1993 / This research was undertaken in order to investigate the problems relating
to consumers' food buying practice in respect of private households, since
it is clear that high food prices are one of the major causes of a decline in
the quality of life of the family.
The researcher's involvement in Home Economics education and specifically
consumerism and in post-school education prompted the hypothesis that
training for responsible buying practice may afford a solution to the problem
of buying practice in respect of private households. Such training needs,
although already identified, have not yet received any real attention.
A literature study was undertaken as a point of departure in order to give
background knowledge. This information was used to put into perspective
buying practices for private households and to define a profile of the buyer.
However, it was necessary to further define this field in order to ensure that
validity and applicability of the findings arising out of this research.
An empirical study was undertaken to test the literature against the reality
found in a Cape Town suburban supermarket. Details of this study will be
set out in Chapter 4 of this research.
In order to establish criteria for the training programme above, curriculum
design had to be based on didactically sound principles. At the outset a
suitable model for adult-learners was selected. This model consisted of an
analysis phase, design phase, implementation phase and evaluation phase.

Kriteria vir 'n opleidingsprogram vir die opleier/voorllgter van voedselverbruikers in private huishoudingsCrafford, Sharon January 1993 (has links)
Thesis (MTech (Education))--Cape Technikon, 1993. / Hierdie studie is onderneem om die probleme rakende die aankooppraktyk
van voedselverbruikers in private huishoudings te ondersoek, want dit is
duidelik dat duur voedselpryse een van die hoofoorsake vir die afname in
lewenskwaliteit van die gesin is.
Die navorser se betrokkenheid by Huishoudkundeopleiding en spesifiek die
verbruikerswese, asook by naskoolse opleiding, het tot die hipotese gelei
dat opleiding tot verantwoordelike aankooppraktyk in 'n besondere mate In
oplossing vir die aankoopprobleem vir private huishoudings kon bied.
Sodanige opleidingsbehoeftes, hoewel reeds geïdentifiseer, het nog nie
daadwerklik aandag geniet nie.
As 'n vertrekpunt is 'n literatuurstudie onderneem om agtergrondkennis oor
die aankooppraktyk in die algemeen te bekom. Hierdie inligting is benut om
die aankooppraktyk vir private huishoudings in perspektief te plaas en om
'n profiel van die aankoper te bepaal. Dit is nodig om die terrein verder af
te baken om sodoende die geldigheid en toepaslikheid van bevindinge te
verseker.

Die effek van verskillende onderrigmetodes in die aanbieding van 'n behuisingsgeletterdheidsprogramVan der Merwe, Marietjie 12 1900 (has links)
Dissertation (Master of Consumer Science)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The role which education can play in the upliftment of individuals and families has been receiving
increasing attention by the South African government because it is regarded as each individual's
right to reach his/her full potential. However, the way in which education is presented is the defining
factor, which determines the sustainability of the subsequent development. The purpose of the
study was to determine how Consumer scientists could contribute to transformative learning as well
as the increasing of individual's levels of empowerment and knowledge.
A literature study was undertaken to present a synopsis of emancipation education and transformative
learning within the context of Consumer Science. Several methods of education, the underlying
concepts to transformative learning, methods to bring about transformative learning, several phases
in transformation of perspectives, the outcomes of the emancipation education method, the role of
the Consumer scientist as emancipation educator as well as practical teaching methods were also
included to support the empirical part of the study.
A housing literacy programme was adapted and presented according to two different methods of
education, namely emancipation and technical methods to represent the empirical part of this study.
The housing literacy programme was presented to women in Calvinia and Williston living in government
subsidised houses. During the implementation of the emancipation method of education,
the transformation framework was used in conjunction with the action research model to adapt the
programme and to identify any transformation that took place. In experimental design, the emancipation
and technical methods were compared in terms of an increase in empowerment and knowledge.
The status of empowerment and knowledge of both groups was determined before the programme,
directly after the programme as well as two months thereafter.
Quantitative data was obtained from the questionnaires on empowerment and knowledge, while
qualitative data was obtained from the action research model as well as the transformation framework.
The result of the quantitative data showed a clear difference between the group taught with
the emancipatory method, and the group taught with the technical method in tenus of the increase in
levels of empowerment and knowledge. The group taught with the emancipatory method showed
higher levels of empowerment and knowledge than the group taught with the technical method directly
after the programme as well as two months thereafter. The levels of empowerment and knowledge of the group taught with the emancipatory method showed significant statistical differences
from before the presentation of the programme until two months thereafter. This suggests the
sustainable character of an increase in empowerment and knowledge. Results obtained from the
qualitative data also indicated the occurrence of distorted meaning schemes as well as modification
thereof.
This study showed that using the emancipation method of education when presenting a Consumer
Science programme could induce transformation. The quantitative data also proved the emancipation
method of education to be more effective than the technical method when aiming to increase an
individual's level of empowerment and knowledge. It is therefore important that Consumer scientists
be aware of all the characteristics of the emancipation method of education as well as transformative
learning in order to induce change in individuals and families and to lead them to selfdependence. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die rol wat onderwys in die opheffing van individue en gesinne kan speel, het die afgelope paar
jaar toenemende aandag van die Regering van Suid-Afrika gekryaangesien dit as elke individu se
reg gesien word om sy/haar volle potensiaal te bereik. Die wyse waarop onderwys aangebied
word, is egter die bepalende faktor in die volhoubaarheid van die ontwikkeling wat daardeur
teweeggebring word. Die doel van die studie was daarom om te bepaal hoe
Verbruikerswetenskaplikes kan bydra tot transformatiewe leer en die verhoging van bemagtigingsen
kennisvlakke van individue.
'n Literatuurstudie is onderneem om 'n oorsig oor emansipasie opvoeding en transformatiewe leer
binne die konteks van Verbruikerswetenskap te gee. Verskeie onderrigmetodes, die konsepte
onderliggend aan transformatiewe leer, metodes om transformatiewe leer te bewerkstellig, verskeie
fases in perspektieftransformasie, die uitkomste van die emansipasie onderrigmetode, die rol van
die Verbruikerswetenskaplike as emansipasie opvoeder en praktiese onderrigtegnieke is bestudeer
om die empiriese gedeelte van die studie te ondersteun.
Vir die empinese gedeelte van die studie is 'n behuisingsgeletterdheidsprogram aangepas en
volgens twee verskillende opvoedingsmetodes, naamlik die emansipasie- en tegniese metode
aangebied. Die behuisingsgeletterdheidsprogram is aangebied aan vroue van Calvinia en Williston
wat in staatsgesubsidieerde huise woon. Met die toepas van die emansipasie opvoedingsmetode is
die transformasieraamwerk saam met die aksienavorsingsmodel aangewend om die program aan te
pas en die transformasie wat voorgekom het te identifiseer. In die eksperimentele ontwerp is die
emansipasie en tegniese metodes met mekaar vergelyk in terme van bemagtiging- en
kennisverhoging. Bemagtiging- en kennisstatus van albei groepe is voor die program, direk na die
program, sowel as twee maande daarna bepaal.
Kwalitatiewe data is uit die aksienavorsingsmodel en die transformasieraamwerk verkry, terwyl
kwantitatiewe data uit die bemagtigings- en kennisvraelyste verkry is. Die resultate van die
kwantitatiewe data het aangedui dat daar wel 'n verskil is ten opsigte van die verhoging van
bemagtiging- en kennisvlakke tussen dié groep wat volgens die emansipasie metode aangebied is en dié groep wat volgens die tegniese metode aangebied is. Die groep wat volgens die emansipasie
metode onderrig is se totale bemagtigingsvlak, sowel as hul kennisvlak was direk na die program
asook twee maande daarna hoër as dié van die groep wat volgens die tegniese metode aangebied is.
By die bemagtiging- en kennisvlak van die groep wat volgens die emansipasie metode onderrig is,
het daar 'n betekenisvolle statistiese verskil van voor die programaanbieding tot twee maande
daarna voorgekom, wat op die volgehoue aard van bemagtiging- en kennisverhoging dui. Die
resultate wat verkry is uit die kwalitatiewe data het verder aangetoon dat daar wel verdraaide
betekenisskemas by die deelnemers voorgekom het asook wysiging daarvan.
Tydens hierdie studie is bevind dat transformatiewe leer teweeggebring kan word met die aanbied
van 'n Verbruikerswetenskapprogram volgens die emansipasie opvoedingsmetode. Die
kwantitatiewe data wat verkry is, het ook getoon dat die emansipasie onderrigmetode meer
effektief as die tegniese metode is om die verhoging van individue se bemagtiging- en
kennisvlakke teweeg te bring. Verbruikerswetenskaplikes moet daarom kennis dra van die
eienskappe van die emansipasie opvoedingsmetode en transformatiewe leer om sodoende
volgehoue verandering by individue en gesinne teweeg te bring en om hul tot selfstandigheid te lei.

Consumers’ perception of generic drugs in South AfricaBoltman, Tamarah January 2017 (has links)
Medicines play a pivotal role in the process of human development as their rational utilization can decrease morbidity and mortality as well as improve quality of life (Jamshed, Hassali, Ibrahim, Shafie, & Babar, 2010). Access to therapeutic drugs form an integral part of any successful healthcare system. The high cost of medicines, is a barrier to accessibility and improved health to the majority of the South African population (Bangalee, 2015). In developing countries with limited healthcare budgets, such as South Africa, generic drugs (medicines) can be a cost-saving treatment alternative, resulting in medical expenditure being reduced and access to scarce resources increased (Van der Westhuizen, Burger, Lubbe, Serfontein, 2010). There is very little knowledge on perception and attitude of South African citizens with regard to use of generic drugs (Bangalee, 2015). Consumer perception can have a large impact on the choice of medicines or drugs chosen. The study intended to find out what the current consumer beliefs, attitudes, behaviours and knowledge of generic drugs are. There was also intent to establish if lack of awareness or misconception about generic drugs influence consumer choice. The study consists of a literature review of the definition of generic drugs and original or branded drugs, their influence in the public and private health sector, factors that influence consumer behaviour, brand effect, brand trust, brand loyalty, and most importantly the South Africa acceptance of generic drugs. Primary data was collected, reported and analysed through the use of a questionnaire to determine the current consumers’ belief, attitude, behaviour and knowledge of generic drugs. The study results reveal that scepticism does exists, yet there was clear acceptance, but still lack of confidence in generic drugs. Consumer education and information is the key to increased generic drug acceptance.

The role of marketing media strategies on consumption.Naicker, Melisha. 17 June 2014 (has links)
This research study put together was based on whether marketing media strategies have an effect on consumption.The purpose of this investigation would provide alternate methods of improving product advertising and client service in the consumer market, as well as influencing the advertising and marketing industry.Marketing media strategies provides a series of tactical actions, which are applied during strategy sales of the product and create awareness in the market amongst the consumer. This will provide an organization with an opportunity to concentrate on the scarce amount of resources and energies available,to apply the best approachfor utilizing these resources, to efficiently target the consumer market.
The research approach utilised is the quantitative method, which involves a non-probability sampling technique and a descriptive research type. The research tool implemented is a questionnaire, which consists of two sections, a profile of the participant and the survey section. The survey section explores the perceptions of these participants relating to the awareness of the marketing media strategies and how consumers perceive brands and media consumption in the market currently. Questionnaires were selected based on a high response rate when distributed to respondents. It also provides a possibility of anonymity because the respondent’s names are not required on the completed questionnaires. This research tool wasdistributed in Gauteng and Kwa-Zulu Natal to random consumers,media and marketing strategists and people in different professions. The method in which the questionnaire was distributed provides an insight on how people in the market perceive advertising of brands and influences their consumption. A consumer’s insight on advertising would be based on a shopper influence compared to a professional individual who would create a strategic insight. Information in this study was collected from primary and secondary sources, which consist of books, internet sources and past dissertations.
From the findings which were collected during this study, it concludes that marketing media strategies play an instrumental role in consumption. These strategies provide a foundation for brands that are advertising and competing in the market, by tactically targeting the consumer market. Consumers’ value advertising in the market, as it provides a guideline before a purchase decision is made. Advertising also serves as a direct method of communicating the emotional and functional benefits of brands and products. Individuals make purchase decisions, which would improve their lifestyle based on emotions; therefore marketing media strategies serve as an awareness mechanism in the market, and drive education to the consumer about the product. The outcome of this study will serve as a guideline for future marketing and media strategists.
The key findings gathered during this study states marketing media strategies play a substantial role in brand life and consumption; it allows organizations to focus more on limited resources and energies available and to utilize these resources to their best ability to gain competitive advantage and drive sales in the market which contributes to a higher share of volume and market leadership. The main reasons for executing marketing media strategies in the market is based on developing relationships between the consumer and the brand, which is essentially to expand on repeat purchase from new acquisitions and current consume. / Thesis (M.Com.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2012.

Housing knowledge of final year student teachers at Esikhawini College of Education : implications for the development of housing unit standardsDlamini, Buyi P. 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MConsumerScience)--Stellenbosch University, 2003. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The provision of housing in South Africa is a national priority. As many aspirant homeowners
are first-time homeowners, they are not necessarily informed about the pitfalls of home
ownership. Although the Government has attempted short-term solutions aimed at equipping
these housing consumers with the necessary knowledge and skills to make informed and
responsible housing-related decisions, research pointed to the need for a sustainable longterm
solution in the form of education and training of the housing consumer. There must be a
concentrated effort to provide housing education to consumers, since everyone has a
constitutional right of access to adequate housing. Unless consumers are equipped with
adequate knowledge and information to make informed choices, this right will not be realised
and the housing market shall not function effectively.
The main objective of the research study was to determine the basic housing knowledge of
the senior student teachers of the Esikhawini College of Education in KwaZulu Natal. The
second objective was to develop an illustrative Unit Standard for teacher qualification
programmes on the fifth level of the National Oualificationa Framework (NOF).
The sixteen housing education and training core concepts identified by Serfontein (2001 :120)
namely Basic Housing Technology, Community, Cultural Aspects of Housing, Environment,
Financial Aspects of Housing, Housing Consumerism, Housing Design and Decoration,
Housing Market, Housing Needs, Housing Policy, Legal Aspects of Housing, Resource
Management, Role-players in Housing, Sources of Housing Information, Tenure Options and
Types of Housing were used to compile a questionnaire which was administered to the senior
students of Esikhawini College of Education. The aim was to determine the basic knowledge
that respondents possessed. The data collected formed the background for the illustrative
Unit Standard for Housing Education that was developed in this research study. The
development of Unit Standards for Housing Education is very necessary and timely as the
Department of Housing, who seeks to develop a systematic housing consumer education
framework for South Africa, have recommended that Housing Education should be included in
the formal education curriculum. If the recommendations of the Department of Housing are implemented and housing
education is included in the school curriculum, well-qualified and trained teachers would be
needed to facilitate the learning of the content. Therefore housing education should be
included in student teacher training programmes. The illustrative Unit Standard for Housing
Education developed in this research study is ideally suited for this purpose. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die beskikbaarstelling van behuising in Suid-Afrika is 'n nasionale prioriteit. Aangesien baie
aspirant huiseienaars nog nie vantevore huise besit het nie, is hulle nie noodwendig ingelig
oor die struikelblokke van huiseienaarskap nie. Alhoewel die regering korttermyn pogings
aangewend het om behuisingverbruikers toe te rus met die nodige kennis en vaardighede om
ingeligte en verantwoordelike behuisingsbesluite te kan neem, toon navorsing dat daar 'n
behoefte is aan 'n langtermyn, standhoudende oplossing in die vorm van opvoeding en die
opleiding van behuisingsverbruikers. Daar moet 'n doelgerigte strewe wees om
behuisingsopvoeding aan verbruikers te verskaf aangesien almal die konstitusionele reg tot
gepaste behuising het. Tensy verbruikers toegerus word met gepaste kennis en inligting om
ingeligte besluite te kan neem, sal hierdie reg nie gerealiseer kan word nie, en sal die
behuisingsmark nie effektief kan funksioneer nie.
Die hoofdoelwit van die navorsingstudie was om die basiese behuisingskennis van senior
onderwysstudente aan die Esikhawini College of Education in KwaZulu Natal te bepaal. Die
tweede doelwit was om 'n Eenheidstandaard vir Behuisingsopvoeding vir
onderwysprogramme op die vyfde vlak van die Nasionale Kwalifikasie Raamwerk (NKR) te
ontwikkel.
Die sestien Behuisingsopvoeding en -opleiding kernkonsepte wat deur Serfontein (2001: 120)
geïdentifiseer is, naamlik Basiese Behuisingstegnologie, Gemeenskap, Kulturele Aspekte van
Behuising, Omgewing, Finansiële Aspekte van Behuising, Behuisingsverbruik,
Behuisingsontwerp en -versiering, Behuisingsmark, Behuisingsbehoeftes, Behuisingsbeleid,
Regsaspekte van Behuising, Hulpbronbestuur, Rolspelers in Behuising, Bronne van
behuisingsinformasie, Huisverblyfopsies en Tipes Behuising is gebruik om 'n vraelys op te
stel wat ingevul is deur die senior onderwysstudente aan die Esikhawini College of Education.
Die doel was om die basiese kennis van die respondente te bepaal. Die data wat ingesamel
is, het die onderbou gevorm van die Behuising Eenheidstandaard wat in dié navorsingstudie
ontwikkel is. Die ontwikkeling van Eenheidstandaarde vir Behuisingsopvoeding en Opleiding
is noodsaaklik en tydig vir die Departement van Behuising, aangesien hulle poog om 'n sistematiese behuisingsverbruikers-opvoedingsraamwerk vir Suid-Afrika daar te stel. Die
Departement het aanbeveel dat behuisingsopvoeding ingesluit moet word in die formele
onderwyskurrikulum.
As die aanbevelings van die Departement van Behuising geïmplementeer word, en
behuisingsopvoeding in die skoolkurrikulum ingesluit word, sal goedgekwalifiseerde,
opgeleide onderwysers benodig word om hierdie inligting aan die leerders voor te hou. Om
hierdie rede moet behuisingsopvoeding ingesluit word in die opleidingsprogramme van
onderwysstudente. Die Eenheidstandaard vir Behuising wat in hierdie studie ontwikkel is, sou
optimaal aangewend kon word vir hierdie doel.

The development, implementation and evaluation of a housing education literacy programme for semi-literate recipients of government subsidised housingVenter, Maria Dorothea 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD (Consumer Science))--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. / In the ten years since the inclusive elections of 1994, the South African government has created an international precedent in the housing field. It is widely acknowledged that in this period it has delivered more subsidised houses than any other country in the world. The housing backlog is still between 2 to 3 million and growing every year, so housing policies for the future must continue to , not only provide subsidised housing for a large part of the population but also seeking to establish a viable market for low-cost housing units and to create sustainable human settlements for low-income groups. There are a therefore large numbers of new consumers that enter the housing market for the first time.
