Show Notes

Professor Erna Oliver of UNISA joins the Knowledge Hub South Africa to trace a career that moves from church historian and pastor to pioneer in educational technology. She shares her research on the four distinct phases of South African colonisation, the layered nature of Afrikaner spirituality, and her double triangle model for open distance learning. She also argues that six simultaneous revolutions are reshaping education and society, and that Toffler's 1970 prediction of mass bewilderment from rapid change has quietly come true.
