Kovsie Advice

The mid-year exams are creeping closer. That means endless hours – or that is what it feels like – of studying, and coffee by the dozens. You are not alone; the academic advising team from the Centre for Teaching and Learning has created a Kovsie Advice to help you during the dark times. 

This edition of Kovsie Advice will help you keep your eye on the prize during this upcoming mid-year exam. 

You can find tips on how to prepare for the exams, how to deal with exam stress, and how to overcome failures. Also be on the lookout for faculty-specific information from your faculty’s Teaching and Learning Office. 

Be inspired to aim for more, and to realise your dreams. 

Enjoy reading!

2007-11-09

 

The Faculty of the Humanities at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently launched an anti-plagiarism awareness campaign on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein. Part of the launch was an exhibition in the foyer of the Flippie Groenewoud building and a slogan competition for students. The winning slogan was: “Copy and paste your studies to waste" from Aldoret Theron, a second-year student in B.Soc.Sc. Human and Societal Dynamics, the second prize went to Jacqueline Pretorius, a second-year student in B.Sc. Medical Microbiology with her slogan: “Plagiaat, die begin van jou lewe op straat", and the third prize was won by Gini Keyser, a third-year student in B.A. General with her slogan "Cloning it is clowning it”. Here are, from the left: Gini Keyser, Aldoret Theron, Prof. Engela Pretorius (Vice-Dean of the Faculty of the Humanities at the UFS), Marizanne Cloete (from the Faculty of the Humanities' Portfolio Committee for Quality Assurance), and Jacqueline Pretorius.
