,SECTION A: ESSAY
Write an essay of about 500 words on ONE of the following topics:
1. Orientation roadshows are not necessary for students studying at open-distance
learning universities. Write an essay in which you either agree or disagree with this
statement. Support your argument with examples.
2. Do you think that working from home is the way to go in South Africa? Support your
argument with examples.
3. Write an essay in which you discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using the
‘Invigilator App’ during online exams in an Open Distance e-learning university.
Support your argument with examples.
Orientation roadshows are an essential component of the educational experience for
students studying at open-distance learning universities. While some may argue that
these roadshows are unnecessary, I firmly believe that they hold significant value in
helping students navigate the intricacies of their learning environment and foster a
sense of connection within the university community. This essay will present several
compelling arguments to support this viewpoint.
First and foremost, orientation roadshows provide crucial information to students about
the university's resources and support systems. Open-distance learning universities
often operate on virtual platforms, making it challenging for students to fully
understand the infrastructure available to them. By attending roadshows, students can
familiarize themselves with various services offered by the university, such as
academic advising, library resources, and technical support. These roadshows also
enable students to obtain valuable insights into the structure of their programs, course
requirements, and assessment criteria. This knowledge helps students to effectively
plan and manage their studies, ensuring a successful academic journey.
Furthermore, orientation roadshows create an opportunity for students to engage with
faculty members and fellow students. The social aspect of learning is often overlooked
in open-distance education, leading to feelings of isolation and disconnection.
However, through these roadshows, students can interact with professors and ask
questions about their courses, assignments, and expectations. This interaction fosters
a sense of community and offers a support network that plays a vital role in academic
success. Additionally, roadshows facilitate peer-to-peer interaction, allowing students
to connect with others who share similar interests and academic goals. These
connections often result in study groups, online forums, and collaborative projects,
enhancing the overall learning experience.
