Quote: 
Prince Mashele, executive director of the Centre for Politics and Research, does not pull any punches about the state of unemployment in the country and who is responsible. He asks three questions:
  • Who are these people who are unemployed?
  • Why are they are unemployed?
  • What must be done to employ them.
“Less than 5% of the people who are unemployed are white. Why? Because they have the skills. We have an education crisis which keeps poor black people from getting the skills they need. We need to set up factories and produce things,” he said.

Perhaps people think that having a degree guarantees success. Could this be the reason for #FeesmustFall?
Free EDUCATION - #feesmustfall
Free EDUCATION - Now WHAT?
Very true... "skills" broaden your chances of being successful. It allows one to design, manufacture and produce ... not because of a degree - Knowing Does Not Make You Skilled. Skills are the proficiencies developed through training or experience. "Skills are key to creation.
This prompts the questions: -
  • Does our higher education system produce unemployable graduates?
  • Does our schooling system create unemployed youth after grade 12?
  • Should we re-look at the antiquated 1900 English curriculum applied in schools today?
  • Are what is taught relevant to what is needed?
  • Should we not cater for children who are not mathematical or scientifically inclined?
  • Should we not teach basic entrepreneurial skills?
  • Are we teaching learners how to shoe horses when we are driving cars?

 Skills are the practical application of theoretical knowledge

 "Knowledge refers to learning concepts, principles and information regarding a particular subject(s) by a person through books, media, encyclopedias, academic institutions and other sources. Skill refers to the ability of using that information and applying it in a context."

Whenever there is a post regarding 3D printing of homes, we are tagged by friends and colleagues to respond to the advantages of moladi vs 3D Printing. We therefore want to make it quite clear that this post is published purely to summarise our take on the topic and to have the ability to reference these questions and statements without having to repeat what we see as inherent issues associated with the 3D printing process of houses. All of the numbers used for 3D printing cost purposes are assumed, as these cost are not readily available for the purpose of this cost example. We would invite any 3D printing entity to help with the actual numbers to take any guesswork out of the cost estimation.
