Access to and participation in education are critical issues in contemporary South Africa. Awareness of inclusiveness and equality is not recent, having possibly first been described in the dawn of the millennium by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Drawing from the current framings in the SADC education systems the contributors argue that ICT has a key role to play in transformation, Africanisation and decolonisation of education. Contributors are: Skye Adams, Najma Agherdien, Andrew Crouch, Andries Du Plessis, Nazira Hoosen, Katijah Khoza-Shangase, Mhulaheni Maguvhe, Khetsiwe Masuku, Sharon Moonsamy, Munyane Mophosho, Nomfundo Moroe, Ramashego Shila Mphahlele, Ndileleni Mudzielwana, Shonisani Mulovhedzi, Anniah Mupawose, Mapula Ngoepe, Moshe Phoshoko, Dhanashree Pillay, Roshni Pillay, Ben Sebothoma and Susan Thuketana.

Children living with disabilities face hardships of many kinds that make it impossible for them to access quality education in the same way as their peers in the schooling system. All children are entitled to quality education and a supportive school environment that allows them to develop to their full potential irrespective of their disabilities. However, different factors make it difficult for many learners who live with disabilities to access, participate, and succeed in the schooling system. The Handbook of Research on Shifting Paradigms of Disabilities in the Schooling System focuses on the global trends in education that require the total eradication of every form of impediment in the process of accessing quality education and lifelong learning for people living with disabilities. Rooted in the philosophy of equal rights, human dignity, and social justice, access to quality education for all has led to the current drive for inclusive education. Covering topics such as inclusive schooling systems, visual impairments, and emotional disabilities, this major reference work is an essential resource for students and faculty of higher education, administrators of both K-12 and higher education, government officials, policymakers, non-profit organizations, researchers, and academicians.

The book is advocating for new inclusive curriculum and assessment initiatives. New inclusive education initiatives will encourage inclusive education practitioners from Early Childhood Development to post-school to focus on the inclusion of the full range of diverse learning needs. A key responsibility of different role-players in curricula and assessment is to provide curricula, assessment and instructional support to public adult learning centres, full-service schools, resource centres and further education institutions in the form of comprehensive learning programmes, learning support materials and assessment instructions. The book will equip every reader with skills, knowledge and experience to review and improve curricula and assessment in order to expand learners’ participation in different education settings.

This collection, which centres on the academic as teacher, grew out of the moment of unprecedented change that COVID-19 brought to the world in 2020, when our daily routine of teaching and learning was disrupted. Many of the chapters have a strongly narrative core, recounting the iterative, emergent and imperfect process of designing online courses for Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). Told to and for other teachers, these stories matter because they transform experience – through reflection – into learning. This work thus contributes to emerging scholarship on pedagogy and disruption in higher education, with a specific focus on the Global South and the ongoing need for contextually relevant, transformative teaching at universities. Animating the collection is the question that preoccupied us during the pandemic: When all this is over, how do you want your teaching to be different? The authors take stock of what, as lecturers, we want to take with us from ERT and what we might want to leave behind – and work to collectively imagine new possibilities for teaching and learning along the continuum from face-to-face to blended, to fully online. This volume is an opportunity for us to keep sharing our innovations and reflecting on the shifts in teaching, learning, course design and assessment practices that occurred during COVID-19 and continue to reverberate beyond. Read together, the studies collected in this volume shed light on the broad and complex ecologies of pedagogic agency, frailty and resilience within which lecturers function as teachers in higher education in the South African context. They offer ideas born out of disruption that aim to support lecturers in similar contexts in developing a more just and equitable higher education. “Of the hundreds of new publications on pedagogy, politics and pandemics, this is easily one of the best available on innovation in higher education inside and since the disruption of those times. The power of reflection and the wisdom of practice combine to ensure the longevity of this remarkable text for university students, teachers and researchers alike. Simply outstanding work!” - Prof. Jonathan Jansen, Distinguished Professor, Stellenbosch University “Pedagogic Innovation Beyond Disruption provides a fascinating reflective perspective by educators in higher education on adapting their practices to manage teaching and learning online during the pandemic. The chapters in the book offer a rich tapestry of strategies and approaches that showcase how educators moved beyond a mere transfer of traditional teaching methods to an online format to ensure that their students remained engaged in their learning and felt cared for and supported online. As such, this book provides a thought-provoking and comprehensive exploration of innovative teaching and learning possibilities in higher education during the unprecedented disruption of the pandemic conditions.” - Dr Jennifer Feldman, Faculty of Education, Stellenbosch University

Higher education has transformed and continues to transform in this century, because of decolonizing the curriculum and the COVID-19 pandemic, which have added an indelible mark to the methodology of teaching and learning. Learning spaces have become open to more people through privatization, massification, e-learning platforms and internationally mobile academics, allowing individuals from diverse backgrounds to enter the academic and helping professions space. Educators need to reskill, repurpose, redesign, and reimagine for a world that is rapidly evolving. New ways of teaching need to consider nuances of decolonization of the curriculum, deep understanding of subjects, transformative ways of imparting knowledge and technology-enhanced learning needs to be embraced. Thus, the teaching and learning spaces in developed and developing environments move beyond the classroom to prepare 21st century citizens to embrace life-long learning. Furthermore, the content as well as processes involved in teaching and learning must be explored thoughtfully that includes the perspectives of a more inclusive wave of educators and students. Thus, this book has implications for a global scholarship, specifically during disruptive times in Higher Education. It is hoped that the book stimulates reflections so that the reader draws inspiration to find contextual relevance that extends into the real-world.

This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the convergence of generative artificial intelligence and disability assistance, seeking to highlight the revolutionary capabilities of AI technology in improving the lives of those with disabilities. Given the swift progression of AI capabilities, it is vital to comprehend how these innovations might be used to foster inclusivity, enhance accessibility, and deliver personalised assistance. This book aims to connect advanced research and practical applications with the specific requirements of individuals with disabilities. The book offers a detailed investigation of generative AI as an assistive tool for individuals with disabilities, encompassing fundamental principles of generative AI, case studies of effective applications, and critical analyses of ethical considerations and societal implications. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of several applications of generative AI for individuals with disabilities across various domains. Examples of generative AI applications encompass AI-assisted communication tools for individuals with speech problems, customised educational platforms for students with learning challenges, virtual reality settings that improve social engagement for individuals on the autistic spectrum and various others. These applications demonstrate how generative AI may improve accessibility and empower individuals by personalising experiences to their individual requirements.

This book is an original scholarly book that introduces the concept of preventive audiology, with a specific focus on the African context, which is in line with the South African re-engineered primary healthcare strategy as well as the World Health Organisation’s approach. The book reflects on contextually relevant and responsive evidence-based perspectives, grounded in an African context on preventive audiology, in four major ear and hearing burdens of disease within the South African context: (1) early hearing detection and intervention, (2) middle ear pathologies, (3) ototoxicity, and (4) noise-induced hearing loss. The book represents innovative research, seen from both a South African and global perspective. It offers new discourse and argues for a paradigm shift in how audiology is theorised and performed, particularly in low-and-middle-income country contexts. The goal of this book is to motivate a paradigm shift in how the ear and hearing care is approached within this low-and-middle-income country context while arguing for Afrocentric best practice evidence that leads to next practice.

The majority of South African principals believe that subject heads and Heads of Departments should be in charge of curriculum and teaching monitoring. Due to this impression, curricular management by principals does not support teaching and learning. According to the KZN department of education's study from 2015 on curriculum management and delivery plan, principals now spend more time on administrative responsibilities and learner discipline than on topics related to instructional leadership. This book emphasizes how major social and economic development in rural areas is necessary in order to achieve actual quality education. Until then, the educational options available in rural areas will restrict people's ability to live long, productive lives and to learn and experience freedom, dignity, and self-respect.

South Africa's democratic government inherited a divided and unequal system of education. Under apartheid, South Africa had nineteen different educational departments separated by race, language, geography and ideology. This education system prepared learners in different ways for the positions they were expected to occupy in social, economic and political life under apartheid and was funded and resourced in ways that favoured white people and disadvantaged black people who remain in the working class. The newly elected democratic government in 1994 laid a foundation for a single national education system. Twenty-five years after the dawn of democracy, education is still in a parlous state in many communities in South Africa, but it is in the rural areas mainly in the former homelands that learners are most disadvantaged.
