dc.description.abstract |
Society is transforming from the industrial era to an information based, network society. There
is widespread consensus that due to this revolution in society, education needs to make a
paradigm shift in order to stay relevant to the changing needs of society. Although this
paradigm shift is promoted widely in academic literature, it seems as if in practice there are
stumbling blocks preventing higher education to make positive strides into a new direction
within the South African context. This research highlights some of the hurdles that Open
Distance Learning higher education in South Africa is experiencing and also suggests a
possible way forward to overcome these obstacles through the implementation of selfdetermined learning (heutagogy). In order for heutagogy to be implemented successfully,
student support is of the upmost importance both in the curriculum design and the actual
teaching and presenting of courses. |
