EXPERIENCE

I am part of Sustainable Learning Environments team which exposed me to the university environment for the duration of my PhD studies from 2011 to 2013. I worked with, learned from and supported fellow students at both Masters and PhD levels. I had opportunities to interact and learn from a team of promoters and supervisors of the SuLE/SuRLEC:

Strategy Development & Leadership Successes

• Developed and implemented a strategy on the use of service learning to transform the learning of physical science such that it is sustainable.
• Prepared and presented papers based on my study on Transformational Learning of Physical Science through Service Learning for Sustainability during the SuLE colloguiums. I presented a paper on “advancing the agenda for social justice and the creation of sustainable learning environments” during the 2013 International Colloguium on Social Justice and the Creation of Sustainable Learning Environments.
• Prepared a paper titled “enhancing synergy: a strategic interrogation of the intersection between social justice and creation of sustainable learning environments.” My current projects are “service learning project: guiding principles and practices for leadership” and “Towards improving the teaching and learning of physical science through the development and implementation of physical science performance improvement plan – lessons from the North West Project”
• Worked with teams of researchers as a team member and a researcher focusing on diagnosis of teaching and learning deficiencies in Physical Science for both teachers and learners in the UFS – North West Project (2014) and currently (2015) on the UFS-Free State Education Department Project.
