- Description
- From introduction: We have a bumper issue, with eleven research papers and one letter to the editor. 2016 was a difficult year for academia in South Africa with highly disruptive protests. 2017 was mostly better from that point of view, though the protest movement has not completely gone away. This issue contains some papers that were submissions to special issues that were not ready in time and hence to some extent is a catch-up issue. In previous issues this year, 29(1), published in July, contained nine research papers, of which five were extended papers from the 2016 SAICSIT annual conference. There was also a special issue on ICT in Education published in October, 29(2), which had five research papers. Two papers from the ICT in Education special issue spilled over to this issue. Overall, we have published 25 research papers this year, compared with four in 2016, fourteen in 2015 and nineteen in 2014. Numbers are therefore looking healthy again; I hope the underlying causes of protest are addressed so we do not have to endure another year like 2016. In the remainder of this editorial, I give an update on the effects of indexing in Scopus, list papers in this issue and end with changes in the editorial team.
