- Description: The research was concerned with perceptions of language and physics in three strata of participants in a writing across the curriculum teaching course at an intermediate college. The participants were: a language teacher, two physics teachers and a class of twenty physics students - the students were studying in order to enter the Engineering Faculty at the University of Cape Town. The predominant understanding of the teachers was that of a limited interpenetration between the discourse of physics and language teaching. Physics teachers thought that language teachers would experience difficulties with both the concepts and language of physics. In actual practice however, students and the language teacher managed physics knowledge with some degree of success in the language classroom. Some students understood writing as helping them to understand physics. However, the dominant understanding of language was that of knowing the appropriate language of physics for their teachers. An appropriate language understanding was seen as potentially problematic in that it could encourage an unquestioning or monodimensional approach to physics knowledge. As a way around this problem, it was suggested that language teachers teach students to recognise and to use particular genres within science, and to develop their voice within these constraints.

- Description: This study examines the perceptions of a small group of primary school teachers from Gugulethu in Cape Town, of the various exhibitions and education services currently offered at the South African Museum. Their perceptions of proposed services are also examined in order to find out which of these proposals, as well as existing services, best meet the needs expressed by this group of teachers. An attempt was also made to determine their level of understanding of environmental education and awareness of environmental issues. This study suggested the need for greater emphasis to be placed on the 'hands-on' components of the Museum's education programmes. The need for syllabus related and enriching educational programmes and resource materials was also identified. In this regard, the exhibits perceived to be of greatest benefit to the pupils were those relating either to the syllabus or their culture, whilst exhibits seen to be 'out of the pupils' experience' (eg. Fossils) were perceived as unimportant. The teachers also epressed a strong desire for training sessions to be held at the Museum that would help them improve their knowledge of the displays and programmes. It was found that the teachers understanding of environmental education ranged from syllabus-related definitions to more holistic views. The environmental issues perceived to be of greatest importance were mainly social issues such as poverty, violence, child abuse and street children as well as water pollution and cruelty to animals. The production of posters and resource materials, drama, story-telling and programmes for parents were seen to be among the choices most favoured for the Museum to adopt in promoting environmental awareness in the community.

- Description: Educational leadership and management is a very wide field of study with interdependent components that should form a chain reaction in order to bring about effective management. This study attempts to investigate planning in schools which is one of the educational leadership and management components or functions. Very little research work has been done on educational planning in the Ciskei schools. This is a shortcoming since the number of secondary schools has mushroomed in the late twentieth century. The Ciskei educational managers and parents need to know and take note of the possible situations in the various schools. This is opportune time, particularly that recent events, i.e. students' demands and strikes, are drawing parents closer to the education of their children. The researcher's experience of inspecting school administration since 1990 has reinforced his conviction that the managerial teams in the Ciskei secondary schools have little knowledge of management, and of planning in particular. Although the investigation is into secondary school administration, it is also pertinent to primary school planning. Management, i.e. school year-planning, control of work, staff development, appointment of teachers, policy governing students and teachers are discussed at length . Joint planning, i.e. a participative or consultative approach, and advance planning, are investigated in relation to the school year-programme. The existence of statutory bodies in the various schools is assessed in order to test parents' involvement in the education of their children. School tours are discussed in relation to students' involvement in the school activities. The analysis of the results highlights areas that require attention, and the recommendations given address the controversial issues in planning in the various schools.

- Description: All mine dumps are a point source of either physical, chemical or both forms of pollution. Physical pollution includes the physical site coverage of the dump, slumping of parts of the dams and dust that may originate from it (air pollution). Chemical pollution from, or related to the mine dumps include the dominant acid drainage (which contains heavy metals), radioactivity, electromagnetic radiation, noise and chemicals released from the mineral processing stage. In one way or the other, exposure to these pollution forms is detrimental to the human health and his environment. It is this fact that urges the public, government and the responsible mining companies to find ways of monitoring the pollution and stopping it, preferably at the source. Where it can not be stopped, techniques of reducing it, or containing it have been, and are still being developed. Personal protection is the priority. Pollution exposure to the general public is minimised as much as possible. Pollution control techniques that employ less expensive, natural, self-sustaining elements suitable for the environment such as wetlands and vegetation are recommended. The artificial short term and often expensive alternatives are of secondary priority. However, choice of which technique to use is based on the merit of each problem, knowing that chemicals act faster but are effective for a short period as compared to the natural systems. Pollution management is the critical part of the whole process. This involves decision making on courses of action and financial allocation on the part of both the polluter and the monitoring department/agent. The ability to effectively manage pollution programmes is achieved these days with the aid of computers. It is emphasised that pollution control should be handled in an integrated, multi-disciplinary approach manner. This is because pollution is a question of life and death, hence every individual remains accountable to it. Keeping the public and the concerned parties educated, informed and welcoming their concerns on the environmental issues related to the mine dumps generated in a mining venture is essential in the modern days of environmental public awareness, or otherwise face the public lath.

- Description: The Etendeka volcanic rocks of northwestem Namibia are currently defined as the upper part of the Karoo Sequence in Namibia and have thus been represented as stratigraphically equivalent to the volcanic rocks of the Karoo Sequence in South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Zimbabwe. However, the Etendeka volcanic rocks (130-135 Ma) are considerably younger than those of the Karoo Sequence (180-190 Ma) in the areas mentioned above. They are compositionally distinct from Karoo volcanic rocks, and constitute an eastern portion of the Parana Igneous Province of Brazil. Stratigraphic studies have shown the Etendeka Formation to be made up of several definable volcanic successions and it is suggested that these successions now be formally recognized as Formations within an Etendeka Group which itself should no longer be part of the Karoo Sequence. Prominent quartz latite units and sequences of basalt flows are defined as Members within the new Formations.

The rampart is believed to have formed in the Bottelnek Stadial, after 27 000 BP and before 13 000 BP, and provides evidence of perennial snowbeds and at least discontinuous permafrost in the East Cape Drakensberg during that Stadial.

- Description: The preparation of an Mo(V) tetrasulfophthalocyanine and some of its thermal and photochemical reactions have been investigated in this work. Electrochemical processes have been followed by means of the UVVis spectral changes and compared with those observed in flash photolysis. Mo(IV) and Mo(V)-ligand-radical species are common intermediates of the electrochemical and photochemical reactions. In 254 nm irradiations of the Mo(V) tetrasulfophthalocyanine in aqueous solutions of 2-propanol, the macrocycle can be photohydrogenated and the product of the photolysis can be reoxidized with O2 back to the parent complex.

Electrochemical processes have been followed by means of the UVVis spectral changes and compared with those observed in flash photolysis. Mo(IV) and Mo(V)-ligand-radical species are common intermediates of the electrochemical and photochemical reactions. In 254 nm irradiations of the Mo(V) tetrasulfophthalocyanine in aqueous solutions of 2-propanol, the macrocycle can be photohydrogenated and the product of the photolysis can be reoxidized with O2 back to the parent complex.

Reproductive biology of the Egyptian free-tailed bat, Tadarida Aegyptiaca
- Authors: Tsita, Johannes Ngoako
- Date: 1994
- Subjects: Tadarida aegyptiaca -- Reproduction , Bats -- Reproduction
- Language: English
- Type: Thesis , Masters , MSc
- Identifier: vital:5754 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1005442 , Tadarida aegyptiaca -- Reproduction , Bats -- Reproduction
- Description: The reproductive biology of Tadarida aegyptiaca was studied using specimens collected in the Cape Province of South Africa. The morphology of the reproductive tract of the species was generally similar to that of other molossids, however, the absence of Cowpers glands was unusual. Spermatogenesis began in February and spermatozoa were released to the cauda epididymis during August and September. Follicular development started in March and culminated with the appearance of Graafian follicles in July. Ovulation probably occurred in August and specimens were pregnant by September. Gestation length was estimated to be four to five months and a single young was born in December. The data suggest that T. aegyptiaca is monotocous and monoestrous.

- Description: Historically, access to marine resources was unrestricted. In order to facilitate the monopolisation of the fishing resource by a few white companies, a system of quotas was introduced. In this way many black fisher folk lost the access rights they had had for generations. At the present time, the fishing industry is completely biased in favour of a few large and medium sized white companies. This is illustrated by the fact that just three (3) companies hold : • 72% of the hake quota; • 75% of the abalone quota, and • 71 % of the sole quota Overall, across all species, approximately nine tenths (9/10) of the resource is controlled by a hand-full of companies. Since 1994, some of these companies have attempted to blacken their faces. They have also sold minority shares to some black business consortia. Further, a few members of the black elite have been given quotas. None of the above amounts to any kind of restructuring. None of the historic imbalances have been addressed. The above have merely been attempts to confuse the issue and to frustrate any process that attempts to restructure the industry.

- Description: Grenadier fishes of the families Bathygadidae and Macrouridae from southern Africa are reviewed since publication of the book Smiths’ Sea Fishes (1986). The bathygadid and macrourid fauna is increased to 46 species in 20 genera with the addition of the following new species and new records for southern Africa: Bathygadus cottoides, Caelorinchus kaiyomaru, Caelorinchus karrerrae, Caelorinchus simorhynchus sp.n, (misidentified in southern Africa as Caelorinchus fasciatus), Caelorinchus trunovi sp.n, (misidentified in southern Africa as Caelorinchus flabellispinis), Cetonurus globiceps, Co- ryphaenoides carapinus, Coryphaenoides grahami, Coryphaenoides mcmillani, Haplomacrurus nudirostris, Hymenocephalus heterolepis (uncertain identification), Malacocephalus occidentalis, Nezumia spinosa, Nezumia umbracincta sp.n., Odon- tomacrurus murrayi, Sphagemacrurus richardi, Ventrifossa mystax sp.n, (previously identified as V. sp. aff. divergens), and an indeterminate species of Ventrifossa. Name changes include: formerly Nezumia hebetata in southern Africa changed to Kumba sp.; formerly Nezumia bubonis and N. leonis now included in Kuronezumia; formerly Ventrifossa ori now Lucigadus ori; Paracetonurus sp. now Pseudonezumia sp. The species of Macrourus from southern Africa is identified as M. carinatus (Gunther, 1878). Range extensions of previously known grenadiers include Caelorinchus acanthiger far into the western Indian Ocean and Australia, C. denticulatus to Kenya, Nezumia milleri to southern Namibia, N. propinqua to Natal, Trachonurus villosus to off False Bay, western Cape Province, Ventrifossa mystax, sp. n. to the Cape west coast and V. nasuta to off Port Elizabeth. , Rhodes University Libraries (Digitisation)

- Description: The restoration of the bells of the Grahamstown Cathedral heralds a new interest in bell-ringing in South Africa. Although the music of ringing bells is part of our heritage, few people know much about the development, or even the rules of change ringing. This is the form of ringing typical of Britain and, increasingly, of Australia, New Zealand, U.S.A., Canada, and southern Africa. , Colin Lewis was Professor of Geography at Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa from 1989 until his retirement at the end of 2007. In 1990, with the strong support of the incumbent Vice-Chancellor, Dr Derek Henderson, he instigated the Certificate in Change Ringing (Church Bell Ringing) in the Rhodes University Department of Music and Musicology - the first such course to be offered in Africa. Since that date he has lectured in the basic theory, and taught the practice of change ringing. He is the Ringing Master of the Cathedral of St Michael and St George, Grahamstown, South Africa.
