Exploring school safety in public secondary schools in the Gauteng province
Get PDFAbstracts in English, Sesotho and ZuluThe purpose of the study was to explore the legal imperative of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Act No. 85 of 1993 and the South African Schools Act (SASA) No. 84 of 1996. The study set out to determine the nature and extent of the implementation of occupational school safety and the literature review examined both international and South African perspectives on the implementation of school safety. The OHS Act No. 85 of 1993 was discussed and linked to a school context, as well as exploring the legal safety imperative of the SASA No. 84 of 1996.
The study followed an exploratory sequential mixed method design using a non-probability, homogeneous convenience, and purposive sample from a selection of public secondary public schools within the Gauteng Province. The study was divided in two phases, where the first qualitative phase utilised an interview guide and the second quantitative phase consisted of a structured, self-completing questionnaire to determine participants’ knowledge and compliance to the OHS Act No. 85 of 1993.
School safety in South African schools falls under the auspices of the SASA No. 84 of 1996, with an emphasis on security safety. Data analysis found that occupational safety was not implemented to the letter of the law as prescribed by the OHS Act No. 85 of 1993, and was not at an optimum level of implementation and management. In fact, school management and educators regard occupational school safety as a burden, an additional task, and not their responsibility.
An objective of the study was to develop a school safety management plan (SSMP) and framework (SSMF). The school safety management framework (SSMF) was based on three stages and 12 building blocks, namely, six primary and six supporting building blocks. The proposed school safety management plan (SSMP) and framework (SSMF) aim to assist the Department of Basic Education (DBE), the Gauteng Department of Education (GDE), school governing bodies, school managers and educators to achieve legislated occupational school safety, as prescribed by the OHS Act No. 85 of 1993 and supporting regulations. The researcher is confident that the SSMF and SSMP will add value to the strategic plans of the DBE and the GDE to ensure effective and continuous school safety, and to improve the quality of school life for every scholar, educator, stakeholder and role-player.Sepheo sa phuputso e ne e le ho hlahloba ka hloko taelo e lokelang ho hlomphuwa le ho phethahatswa ho ya ka tshwanelo ya Molao wa 85 wa selemo sa 1993 wa Bophelo le Polokeho ya batho Mosebetsing (OHS) le Molao wa 84 wa selemo sa 1996 wa Dikolo tsa Aforika Borwa (SASA).

Ucwaningo lwaluhlose ukunquma uhlobo kanye nezinga lokuqaliswa kokuphepha kwezikole emsebenzini kanye nokubuyekezwa kwemibhalo kuhlole imibono yamazwe ngamazwe neyaseNingizimu Afrika mayelana nokuqaliswa kokuphepha kwezikole. UMthetho we-OHS onguNombolo 85 ka-1993 kwaxoxwa ngawo futhi waxhunyaniswa nesimo sesikole, kanye nokuhlola ukubaluleka kokuphepha kwezomthetho kwe-SASA onguNombolo 84 ka-1996.
Ucwaningo lulandele indlela exubile elandelanayo yokuhlola kusetshenziswa okungalindelekile, ukusebenziseka okufanayo, kanye nesampula ehlosiwe evela ezikoleni ezikhethiwe zikahulumeni zamabanga aphezulu esiFundazweni saseGauteng. Ucwaningo lwehlukaniswe izigaba ezimbili, lapho isigaba sokuqala sokuqoqa nokuhlaziya imininingwane engezona izinombolo sasebenzisa umhlahlandlela wenhlolokhono kanti isigaba sesibili sokuqoqo nokuhlaziya izinombolo sasihlanganisa uhlu lwemibuzo oluhlelekile, oluzigcwalisela lona ukuze kunqunywe ulwazi lwabahlanganyeli kanye nokuhambisana noMthetho we-OHS onguNombolo 85 ka-1993.
Ukuphepha kwezikole ezikoleni zaseNingizimu Afrika kungaphansi kwe-SASA onguNombolo 84 ka-1996, kugcizelelwa ukuphepha kwezokuphepha. Ukuhlaziywa kwemininingwane kwathola ukuthi ukuphepha emsebenzini akuzange kusetshenziswe ngokomthetho njengoba kunqunywe nguMthetho we-OHS onguNombolo 85 ka-1993, futhi kwakungekho ezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu lokusetshenziswa nokuphatha. Eqinisweni, abaphathi besikole nothisha babheka ukuphepha kwesikole njengomthwalo, umsebenzi owengeziwe, hhayi isibophezelo sabo.
Inhloso yocwaningo kwakuwukwenza uhlelo lokuphatha ukuphepha kwesikole (SSMP) kanye nohlaka (SSMF). Uhlaka lokuphatha ukuphepha kwezikole (SSMF) belusekelwe ezigabeni ezintathu namabhulogo okwakha ayi-12, okungukuthi, amabhulogo okwakha ayinhloko ayisithupha kanye nayisithupha ayisisekelo. Uhlelo oluhlongozwayo lokuphatha ukuphepha kwezikole (SSMP) kanye nohlaka (SSMF) kuhloswe ngalo ukusiza uMnyango Wezemfundo Eyisisekelo (DBE), uMnyango wezeMfundo waseGauteng (GDE), izigungu ezilawula izikole, abaphathi bezikole kanye nothisha ukuze kuzuzwe ukuphepha ezikoleni okusemthethweni, njengoba kubekwe nguMthetho we-OHS onguNombolo 85 ka-1993 kanye nemithethonqubo esekelayo. Umcwaningi unethemba lokuthi i-SSMF ne-SSMP zizokwengeza ukubaluleka ezinhlelweni zamasu ze-DBE kanye ne-GDE ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuphepha kwesikole okuphumelelayo nokuqhubekayo, kanye nokwenza ngcono izinga lempilo yesikole yawo wonke umfundi, uthisha, ababambiqhaza nababambe iqhaza.
Kusobala ocwaningweni ukuthi akukho ukuqhathanisa noma ubudlelwano obuncane phakathi koMthetho onguNombolo 85 ka-1993, kanye noMthetho we-SASA onguNombolo 84 ka-1996. Eqinisweni, le mithetho emibili ebalulekile yomthetho ayihlangani njengesimemezelo esisodwa sokuphepha esiphelele. Ukuhlaziywa kweminingwane kubonise ukuthi abaphathi bezikole nothisha abakubheki ukuphepha okusemthethweni njengesibophezelo sabo kuphela kodwa njengowomuntu oqokiwe onekhono lokuphepha. Kuphakanyiswa ukuthi i-DBE, njengesishayamthetho esengamele, ifake izidingo zoMthetho we-OHS onguNombolo 85 ka-1993 ku-SASA onguNombolo 84 ka- 1996 noma okungenani ibhekisele ezidingweni zomthetho onguMthetho we-OHS onguNombolo 85 ka-1993 kanye nokufaka ukuphepha ohlelweni lwayo lokuthuthukiswa kwezikole, isu lokuphatha amasu e-DBE, kanye nohlelo lokusebenza lwe-DBE.
Lolu cwaningo luphinde lwenze iziphakamiso ngezindawo zocwaningo olwengeziwe oluhlobene nobubanzi obubanzi bokuphepha kwezikole emsebenzini.Ph. D. (Management Studies)Business Managemen
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
