How to set up the questions in your document recommendation:




Case Study and Assignment 6 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.


3|Page

,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:


3.1 According to Becvar and Becvar (2014), systemic thinking is not an either/or approach. Discuss this
statement and justify how FOC and SOC can be integrated in a complementary manner. (10
marks)


3.2 In all professions there are both explicit and implicit ethical guidelines, which have been drawn up to
ensure efficacy and competency. Discuss the ethical considerations to bear in mind if you were working from an
ecosystemic perspective (include the ethical considerations for both FOC and SOC). (10 marks)


3.3 In your opinion, how can African ideologies and indigenous knowledge systems be incorporated into
ecosystemic psychology? (10marks)


3.4 Provide a critique of ecosystemic psychology in which you cover both its merits and
its shortcomings. (10 marks)


Question 4:


This is not a question, however, a mark will be awarded for referencing. You need to include both in-text
references and a reference list that follows the American Psychological Association (APA) 7th edition
guidelines. (10 marks) (University of South Africa, 2022).
