Reconstructing Higher Education in South Africa: A Case for a Development-Oriented Curriculum Structure.
Kgaphola, M. R.
South African Journal of Higher Education, v13 n2 p60-67 1999
Suggests a need for a new catalytic and national development-based paradigm for higher education in South Africa. Proposes a four-year undergraduate curriculum that would encompass both the traditional three-year program and the one-year honors program, as well as a development-based curriculum that would better meet the needs of changing demographics, industry, and globalization.
