The cape of good hope
Article Abstract:
The Western Cape, South Africa, has set up a Tertiary Institutions Trust which helps promote co-operation between two technikons and three universities in this province. The universities were initially divided and had little contact. They have come to see that duplication of resources is not necessary and joint projects are being set up such as a school for community health. A Science and Technology Explorium has also been set up in Cape Town.

Article Abstract:
A visiting research fellow at Sussex University describes her experiences as she attempted to improve the group skills of her students by getting them to design an online prospectus. The task proved to be an informative, if painful, experience for the students, who through the course of their education had become used for their individual, rather than group, performance.
