Instructional Measures

This article aims to indicate that an individualised approach is imperative for the successful teaching of multicultural pupil populations. The cultural plurality displayed by the South African population is first dealt with, whereafter the educational needs which evolve from the cultural plurality are identified. The process of educational change is described in terms of Kuhn's idea of the structure of scientific revolutions as it pertains to the South African situation. Appropriate instructional measures for meeting evolving educational needs are suggested. These measures are largely based on Lynch's model of instructional strategies which illustrates the process of matching curriculum and pupil information with a view to achieving equity in educational provision.

Loaded Term

In working with children with special educational needs both in South Africa and in Denmark, I continue to reflect upon who should dance and how to train dancers who are differently abled. The label of “other” dancer profoundly challenges the notion of “ideal dancing bodies” as “cultures collide.” This paper sets out to engage with the notions of “disability arts” by suggesting some working definitions for this loaded term and provides an examination within the South African context of the multiculturalism of the disabled community, which could be seen as a cultural grouping in and of itself.

Central Statistical

In the South African population censuses of the past the thousands of African Independent Churches were all classified and tabled together in one category. Since 1980 only one, the Zion Christian Church, has been identified separately. Previous statistics did not make it possible to know which of these churches were the larger ones, where they were based and which groups were growing as these statistics were very general. This article gives the reasoning behind the proposal made to the Central Statistical Services to enumerate some of these churches separately, and to classify the more or less 4 500 churches into a number of categories on the basis of their stated names.
