- Description: Many scholars in the field of mathematics education have written extensively on algebra and the reasons why algebra remains one of the aspects of mathematics that usually poses problems to students. This study examined the effects of problem based learning strategies on students’ academic achievement in algebra using language proficiency and gender as moderator variables. A 3X2X3 pretest-posttest control group quasi-experimental design was adopted in the study. One hundred and nine subjects were involved in the study (109) this consisted of forty-four males and sixty-five females in four Grade 9 mathematics classes in East London District. The study was carried out in two schools using two intact classes in each of the school. One class in each school was randomly assigned to the experimental and another to control groups. Four instruments were constructed and used for this study. These are: Language Proficiency Achievement Test (LPAT), Problem Based Learning Strategies are in two parts (PBLSa) and (PBLSb), Conventional Teaching Guide (C.T.G). The instruments were validated and used for data collection before and after the four week experiment. Seven hypotheses were generated and tested in the study at 0.05 alpha levels. The data collected were subjected to both descriptive and inferential statistics, which included Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) of students post-test achievement and where the results were significant, Pairwise Comparison Analysis of Scheffe post-hoc were employed to detect the source of variation and the direction of significance of post-test achievement according to treatment groups. One of the major findings of this study was that problem based learning strategies (PBLSa), (PBLSb) are more effective than conventional method in students’ academic achievement in algebra ( x = 3.05; SE =.720), ( x = 4.23; SE=.714), ( x = 3.36; SE =.726) in that order. The study also revealed there is no significant main effect of treatment and language proficiency on students’ academic achievement in Algebra (F (2,109) = .926; p>.05). Also, there is no significant main effect of treatment and gender on students’ academic achievement in algebra. (F (1.109) =.237; p>.05). However, this study recommended that problem based learning strategies should be embraced by both the teachers and learners in order to enhance students’ academic achievement in algebra. , Thesis (PhD) -- Faculty of Education, 2014

"I felt that I deserved it" : an Investigation into HIV-related PTSD, traumatic life events, and the personal experiences of living with HIV : a mixed-method study

- Description: There appears to be a growing body of literature focusing on PTSD and HIV-related PTSD (the diagnosis of HIV being the significant traumatic event) amongst HIV-positive samples, but only a few African studies that attempt to estimate the prevalence of PTSD amongst HIV-positive people, and even fewer that attempt to estimate the prevalence of HIV-related PTSD. The systemic review presented in this study is currently fully inclusive and is the most up-to-date available. Estimates of the prevalence of PTSD and HIV-related PTSD in South Africa range from 0.7 to 54.1% and, 4.2 to 40% respectively. The current cross-sectional study made use of a mixed-method approach to investigate traumatic life events, PTSD and HIV-related PTSD within a primary health-care centre in KwaZulu-Natal. The quantitative sample consisted of 159 adults (18-50 years) who were compliant on ARV medication. Using the CIDI-PTSD module, the adapted CIDI-PTSD module for HIV, and IES-R, findings indicated that 62% had reported some kind of traumatic event in their lifetime, with 29.6% of participants meeting the criteria for lifetime PTSD, and 40.9% meeting the criteria for lifetime HIV-related PTSD. Altogether, 57.9% of individuals met the criteria for some form of PTSD (either regular PTSD or HIV-related PTSD), and 12.6% met the criteria for both PTSD and HIV-related PTSD. Of the different categories of traumatic events, interpersonal violence has the highest rate of PTSD, followed by a diagnosis of and living with HIV, and then disaster. Furthermore, the IES-R was compared for its usefulness as a screening measure for PTSD against both the CIDI, but results suggest that it is an inferior screening measure to the PDS. The qualitative study consisted of six participants who were examined using IPA methodology informed by the Ehlers and Clark (2000) Model of trauma. Their experiences revealed experiences of stigma, a number of negative appraisals, negative emotions and coping behaviours. Some of the latter might serve as compensatory mechanisms to avoid negative judgements. Hypervigilance seems to be a feature of ARV-compliance that might confer added vulnerability to PTSD and other anxiety disorders.
