OBE A FAILURE?

Colleagues have you seen yesterday's article in THE TIMES (16.09.09)? It is said that OBE is failing as it produces incompentent learners. They are saying that we educators cn't even use the text book. There is a team consisting of the MEC which is to find out the latest developments around OBE/NCS.

Quite interesting I must say. What's your view?

PRESIDENTIAL HOTLINE

Fellow students! What do you think of the hotline set by our president? Is it really worth it or is it just a waist of taxpayers' money?

Ipersonally think that it is a good move, as long as action can be taken out of comments that people will be making. Let it not be a white elephant.

Caster Semenya saga

I think the media is not doing justice to Caster. There is absolutely nothing wrong that she did. The only mistake that she did was to outrun her competitors. She is talented, she needs to be given some break. We don't even have to feel pity for her, all that she deserves is honour. She is fortunate that now she is aware of the medical complications that migh emanate from her situation. Big up to her!
