Knowledge, Curriculum and Qualifications for South African Further Education

Focused on the current situation in South Africa--but equally applicable to those in developed and developing countries--this collection offers a refreshing analysis of economically-driven trends in educational reform and a number of alternative ways to modernize higher education and training programs without turning education into a commodity. The articles also seek to remind policymakers, researchers, and teachers that many students acquire knowledge for its own sake and are not merely focused on achieving qualifications.Young, Michael is the author of 'Knowledge, Curriculum and Qualifications for South African Further Education ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780796921543 and ISBN 0796921547.
