The Directorate: Community Engagement will be virtually celebrating the launch of the new E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy on 10 December 2020. 

Most of the face-to-face community engagement activities could not take place this year due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic and related physical distancing restrictions. Therefore, an E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy has been developed as an adapted virtual participatory learning environment in collaboration with our community, business, and government partners. This E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy seeks to make information accessible to communities through dialogue on engaged learning, training, and research for citizens to take actively part in developing their own lives and that of their surrounding communities. 


Details of the launch:

Date: 10 December 2020

Time: 16:00 (CAT)

Platform: Microsoft Teams

UFS presents course in resuscitation
2008-09-26

 

 The Department of Anesthesiology at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently presented a free course on resuscitation for teachers. The aim was to provide them with practical experience in life support in order for them to have the knowledge and self-confidence to supply learners with life support when they are in life threatening situations where heart arrest is involved. The teachers receive training over weekends in small groups and appropriate situations such as drowning are for example being handled . The ultimate goal is to involve all the schools in Bloemfontein and the Free State. Here are, from the left: Mr Jakob Moahlodi, Dr Edwin Turton, lecturer at the UFS Department of Anesthesiology, Ms Bertie Roos, Ms Biana Meyer, and Mr Joseph Nkahle, a teacher at Navalsig Secondary School in Bloemfontein.
