Issues Relating to the Cognitive Development of Students at Historically Disadvantaged Institutions.
Wood, T.
South African Journal of Higher Education, v12 n1 p87-94 1998
Issues facing historically disadvantaged universities in South Africa are examined, focusing on their impact on the cognitive development of students. It is concluded that students' cognitive development is a strategic matter, requiring the coherent effort of a whole institution rather than being the exclusive province of any specialized units. The case of one institution is considered. (Author/MSE)
