The triangle of effective education – implemented for Theology.
oliver, Erna
Higher education in general, and more specifically in the South African environment, is
under pressure to transform. Although learning is often seen as the main focal point, the
education process consists of three equally important pillars that form the triangle of effective
education that fits within the intersection of the spheres of the community of inquiry
framework. The basic pillars expand to student-centred teaching, blended learning and
transformative assessment. This study is a short explanation of how these three pillars
form a basic framework for effective theological training. This is a qualitative study, using a
philosophical and analytical research design and illuminative evaluation as research method.
This is a model for effective higher education in Theology. The triangle of effective education
is formed by student-centred teaching, blended learning and transformative assessment.
The model fits into the intersection of the spheres identified by the community of inquiry
framework of Garrison, Anderson and Archer.
