There is a growing trend in the digitisation of heritage materials in Africa but while there is consensus on the importance of digitising IK in Africa, there are issues with ensuring long-term preservation so that digital information is permanently secured and protected. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to discuss the Indigenous Knowledge Systems efforts in Africa. The scope of this paper is the digitisation of IKS in South Africa and how Web archiving can be adopted in ensuring the trustworthiness of IKS in academic institutional repositories. This paper adopted literature review and web content analysis to collect relevant information and make an inference. The paper, therefore, shows that South Africa is one of the few countries in Africa that has invested immense effort in the use of technology and digitisation of IKS. However, there is a need to consider issues related to the long-term preservation of these digital materials. There is currently a lack of policy and digital preservation frameworks, especially in Africa.Item Mehr als 1500 Deutschlehrer trafen sich in Amsterdam(Int. Deutschlehrer-Tagung, 2009) Zappen-Thomson, MarianneYom 4. bis zum 9. August 1997 fand in Amsterdam die XI. lntemat.ionale Deutschlehrertagung (IDT) stall. zu der etwa 1500 Teilnehmer angemeldet waren. Die Tagung stand diesmal unter dem Mouo ''Deutsch in Europa und in der Welt: Chancen und lniriativen". Die IDT hat schon eine lange Geschicbte. So wurdc vor 30 Jahren in Miinchen die I. lnternationale Deutschlehrenagung von der FIPLV (Federation lntemat. ionale des Professeurs de Langues Vivantes) zusammcn mit dcm Goetbe-lnstitut veranstaltel. Da reges lntercssen am Fach Deutsch bestand - etwa 850 Teilnehmer besuchten die Tagung -, wagte das FlPLVKomitee den Schritt zur Griindung des IDV (lnternationaler Deutschlehrerverband), der 1968 in Zagreb ins Leben gerufen wurde. lnzwischen gchoren dem IDV - mit den in Amsterdam aufgenommenen neuen Vcrbanden-iiber 90 Mitgliedsverbande aus mehr als 60 Uindem an. Interessant ist in diesem Zusammenhang der Hinweis von Claus Onh ( 1997 : 5), langjahriges Vorstandsmitglied, daB "iiber 40% der JDVMitgliedsverbande auBerhalb Europas beheimatet sind und daB deren Mitglledcrzahl Uber 40% der mehr als 50.000 im IDV organisienen Dcut!.chlehrer betragt".Item The mg Times(JP Inspiring Knowledge, 2014) Beukes-Amiss, Catherine M.Item The role of human rights and documentation centre on the academic performance of undergraduate law students at the University of Namibia(2021) Hipangwa, Martin V.; Yule, WilsonThe Human Rights and Documentation Centre (HRDC) serves the central mission of creating and cultivating a sustainable culture of human rights and democracy. It is a semi-autonomous component of the Faculty of Law of the University of Namibia (UNAM) and it supports staff and students in terms of their information needs. The purpose of the study was to determine the role of the University of Namibia’s HRDC on the academic performance of undergraduate law students at the University of Namibia. The study employed a mixed research approach by using questionnaires and structured interviews to collect data. The target population was the undergraduate law students and staff members of the HRDC. A structured interview was conducted with one of the HRDC staff as the key informant, on the other hand survey questionnaires were used to collect quantitative data from students. Purposive sampling technique was employed in selecting the sample size of 1 key informant from the staff members, and convenience sampling technique to come up with a sample size of 50 undergraduate law students who used the centre. The study fi ndings revealed that the collections found in the centre were relevant, helpful and very supportive in support of the academic performance of students. Students found the collections to be old and the centre’s operating hours to be a hindrance for students to fully utilise the centre. The study recommends marketing and user advocacy to raise awareness of the library services. The study further recommends that the centre should update its collections more often and adjust their operating hours to accommodate most students.Item Seminar on using the internet for professional development(University of Namibia, 2000) Beukes-Amiss, Catherine M.Item Sister Namibia(Sister Namibia, 2010) Cowley, KayItem Sprachmischung in Namibia das problem betrifft uns aile(Namibia Magazin, 1999) Zappen-Thomson, MarianneDies ist der geringfiigig iibemrbeitete Text cines Referates, das die Autorin anlaBlich der Deutschlehrer-Tagung der Arbeitsgemeinschafl dcr Deutschen Schulvereine in Namibia am 24./25. juli 1999 in Arandis gehalten hat.Item Using the internet for social science research(University of Namibia, 2004) Mchombu, Kingo; Beukes-Amiss, Catherine M.It is estimated that Internet users around the world are over 200 million (Clarke 1998). Others have claimed that by 2005, Internet users will number one billion. Chadwick notes that few technologies have generated as much interest, paranoia, and hype as the Internet (Chadwick 1998). Apart from its vast reach, another characteristic of the Internet is the fast development of the technology. In fact the technology is developing so fast that it seems capable of running ahead of definitions. As recently as 1999, for example, the Internet was defined as "a large number of interconnected computers in a single cooperative global system". To date, such a definition would be inadequate because of the rapid advances in technology. An appropriate definition would have to include: Satellite technology, Wireless applications (WAP), 1-mode (wireless Internet connection via cell-phones), TV sets, to mention but a few possibilities.Item Youth expo-2001(National Youth Council of Namibia, 2001) Tsoubaloko, Francois HaipingeARTS DEFINITION AND PROMOTION IN NAMIBIA Before I emphasize on arts, I would like to enlighten on three famous words by defining them one by one as they have interconnection and related to arts. Their utilization becomes sometime incorrect when they link them to arts, and these are: • Tradition • Custom • Culture
