2018 2019 KovsieCyberSta Search
2017/2018 #KovsieCyberSta’s Thuli Molebalwa and Amu Mathebula.

The search for the next #KovsieCyberSta is on. We are looking for two vibrant presenters to  take over the reins from Thuli and Amu as the official UFS Social Media ambassadors.
 
The two outstanding candidates will hold the title of #KovsieCyberSta for a period of 12 months. As #KovsieCyberStas, they will cover events on and around campus, while filming and presenting short video clips to give fellow Kovsies some insight into these events on the UFS Social Media platforms.

At the end of their term, they will receive a recommendation letter and portfolio of their work to add to their show-reel.

The #KovsieCyberSta search will work according to the following simple steps: 

1. Candidates upload a 45-60-second audition video on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook and tag the UFS while using #KovsieCyberSta. In your video, you must tell us why you should be the next #KovsieCyberSta.
2. You can also send your audition videos to socialmedia@ufs.ac.za. 
3. The Top Ten most impressive auditions will be shortlisted and posted on the UFS pages for public votes on 16 April 2018.
4. The Kovsie community will then decide through voting who gets to win and the winners will be announced on 23 April 2018.

Watch the video below for a quick demonstration on how to enter your audition video:

RIEP presents Science quiz for Grade 12 learners
2007-10-29

 

The Research Institute for Education Planning (RIEP) at the University of the Free State (UFS) presented a Science quiz for Grade 12 learners of secondary schools in Philippolis, Springfontein and Trompsburg as part of RIEP's Science intervention programme in the Southern Free State. The aim of the quiz was to enable learners to exhibit their knowledge of Science and to serve as an opportunity for them to prepare for the coming matric exam. The quiz, funded by BP Southern Africa, is part of TRAC South Africa, an international non-profit programme aimed at supporting and developing the education of science, maths and technology in secondary schools in South Africa. Here are, from the left: Mr Johnny Machedi (Department of Education, Free State), Koba Oerson, Ntswaki Mthimkulu, Mr Christiaan Eichstedt (Headmaster of Springfontein Secondary School), Innocentia Mdliki, Maditlhare Mathobanyana and Ceswin Oerson. All the learners are from Springfontein Secondary School, winner of the quiz.
