Invitation to 4th Year B.Eds to participate in Social Justice Education PhD study

Greetings, Bachelor of Education 4TH year students

 

My name is Collins Dumisani Morgan Motai. I am currently registered for the doctoral degree in Social Justice Education at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Edgewood campus.

 

I invite you to consider participating in my study that focuses on social justice in higher education from a student’s perspective. This research undertakes a comparative approach in establishing the relationship between social justice and students’ choice (between public and private institutions) of a particular higher education institution.

 

The study is titled: Exploring the interrelationship between initial teacher training students’ perspectives on social justice in higher education and their choices of a particular higher education institution. This study will involve a focus group that will be either in person on campus or online.

 

Criterion to participate:
