Implications and concluding remarks In conclusion, the article seeks to consider the potential role of a social constructionist approach to resilience in encouraging the creation of a transformative university context for sexual minority academics and students. This may create uncritical assumptions about heterosexuality as the norm, while rendering other forms of sexual identity as supposed subordinate ‘others’ (Rothmann & Simmonds 2015) which potentially manifests in exclusion or even heterosexist and patriarchal violence (Bhana 2014; Msibi 2009). keywords: 2016; education; francis; gay; gender; individuals; lesbian; msibi; queer; resilience; social; south; students; studies; university cache: thejournal-34.htm plain text: thejournal-34.txt item: #45 of 82 id: thejournal-35 author: None title: thejournal-35 date: None words: 13866 flesch: 46 summary: From interviewing five retired white academics, the study found that institutional culture and implementation of labour legislation through the Human Resources department by the university in question affect the transferability of skills and that proper programmes of voluntary mentorship should be put in place as to allow the growth of both the older generation and new generation academics.

Though it is certainly the case that any particular mode is invested in relationships with other modes, the moment they intersect in an embodied agent or event, each mode also provides a unique window into the operations of whatever is transpiring at a specific moment, what Latour calls a process of ‘veridiction’ for that particular mode. keywords: existence; human; humanity; latour; life; modes; new; university; work; world cache: thejournal-75.htm plain text: thejournal-75.txt item: #70 of 82 id: thejournal-76 author: None title: thejournal-76 date: None words: 7408 flesch: 38 summary: This collection of essays (Pinar 2010) and the later chapter on ‘Curriculum research in South Africa’ authored by Le Grange (2014) tell us that this field in South Africa has remained divided because of the country’s apartheid history and that curriculum research is mainly focussed on school curriculum. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-5812.2011.00795.x Le Grange, L., 2014, ‘Curriculum research in South Africa’, in W.F.
