Thesis (PhD (Philosophy))--University of Stellenbosch, 1990. / This study has focused on two aspects. In the first instance an
attempt was made to create a theoretical model which could serve as a
guideline for implementing cooperative education in the commercial
sc iences. Secondly, it was determined to which extent cooperative
education was feasible in the commercial sciences at technikons.
In the first component, a literature study was undertaken as starting
point for the development of a model according to which cooperative
education could be applied. The focus was predominantly on commercial
courses up to diploma level offered at technikons in the RSA. The
basic premise was that it would be desirable for commercial courses to
conta i n a component of cooperative educati on, spec ifica 11y that of
in-service training as a subdivision thereof. At present cooperative
education is not a requirement for commercial courses at technikons,
though it is compulsory in courses in engineering and the sciences.
The study of literature revealed that there are certain methods
according to which commercial courses are presented when implementing
cooperative education in other countries. It was evident that a model
containing certain components could be developed. The concepts of cooperative education, vocational education and
competency-based education should form the basis of all technikon
education and the total model can be constructed on these principles.
