- Description: My collection encompasses personal relationships, intimacy, and the erotic, as well as more narrative poems grounded in landscapes, including urban and internal landscapes. Some were written in conversation with other poems or pieces of prose such as the stories of Noy Holland. I use free verse forms influenced by various prose poems as well as by the musical/tonal forms of poets such as Lorca. Other styles and influences include the darkness and directness of Spanish poetry particularly Rafael Alberti (esp. his book Concerning the Angels); and the confident and reflective style of Romanian poet Nina Cassian.

- Authors: Mtongana, Lindile
- Date: 1999
- Subjects: Teachers -- In-service training School management and organization -- Parent participation Education and state -- South Africa Educational law and legislation -- South Africa

- Description: This project comprises a case study that I conducted at New Horizon High School in Butterworth, a school with a good reputation for its excellent academic standard. It is about Staff Development, which I have identified as the most vital component of effective teaching. Although there is a need to ensure that there is an adequate supply of teachers in schools, the greatest challenge lies in the development of the quality of those who are already in service. This enormous challenge seems to have been forgotten by many school leaders. I hope this study will be beneficial to school principals and teachers who want to be successful in their teaching careers in the 21st century.

A probability operator
- Authors: Sinclair, Allan M
- Date: 1965
- Subjects: Mathematics , Probabilities
- Language: English
- Type: Thesis , Masters , MSc
- Identifier: vital:5423 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1007702 , Mathematics , Probabilities
- Description: From Introduction: In probability theory it is often convenient to represent laws by characteristic functions, these being particularly suited to classical analysis. Trotter has suggest ted that probability laws can also be represented by probability operators. These operators are easily handled since they are continuous, and hence bounded, positive linear operators on a normed linear space. This representation arises because distribution functions and their complete convergence correspond to probability operators and their complete convergence. Hence the relations between distribution functions and probability operators will be discussed before the introduction of probability laws.

Bitten
- Authors: Sullivan, Louella
- Date: 2015
- Subjects: Creative writing (Higher education) , South African poetry (English) -- Study and teaching (Higher) , South African poerty (English) -- 21st century
- Language: English
- Type: Thesis , Masters , MA

- Description: My poetry investigates the extraordinary in the everyday, exploring my life as a mother and wife, to find the quiet truths that lie there. Using fresh ways of describing familiar experiences, the poems describe tiny, almost-missed moments and voices that have shaped me. Throughout the collection, I imagine my younger selves commenting on my current self and vice versa. Ultimately, my poems use simple words and clean lines to evoke how I feel (and how I want the reader to feel) in each of the moments they describe.
