SECTION B
2. Case Study and Assignment Questions
Case Scenario
Covid-19 has brought about many new challenges across various contexts. In order to slow the
infection rate, a national lockdown was enforced, which on one hand was aimed at protecting
the population from the effects of Covid-19 and slowing down the spread, with new terminology
such as "lock-down, self-isolation, social distancing, flatten the curve....new normal" surfacing
(Pillay & Barnes, 2020). On the other hand, the solution to the problem created many individual,
familial, social, community, educational, occupational, financial and other challenges. Reflect on
the changes that took place both in the country, but within the context of academia, teaching
and learning. You may even find it helpful to write a page of your own personal challenges and
insights gained over the last two years with regards to the changes we have all experienced, to
varying degrees.
Once you have thoroughly reflected on the above, answer the questions below, in relation
to you as a student at Unisa.
Question 1
In view of the above excerpt, as a student of Unisa, a Open Distance Learning Education
Institution, provide a first order cybernetic analysis of Unisa as a system. In your answer,
describe the context as a first order cybernetic thinker, and apply at least five (5) first order
cybernetic principles/concepts to your analysis. (25
marks)
Question 2
In view of the above excerpt, as well as your answer for question 1, include yourself in the
observed, and provide a second-order cybernetic analysis of Unisa as a system. In your answer,
describe how a second-order cybernetic thinker would contextualise Unisa, and apply at least
five (5) second order principle/concepts to your analysis (25 marks)
Question 3
Second order cybernetics can be viewed as a meta-perspective. In line with this premise, answer
the questions below:
