In knowledge construction courses, instructors need to transform students’ conceptions of learning and the LMS must support, among other things, students’ cognition and interaction.

For example, it has been shown that depressed patients are three times more likely not to comply with medical regimens than non-depressed patients; there is also evidence that depression predicts the incidence of heart disease. In the case of infectious diseases, non-adherence can lead to drug resistance, and this has profound public health implications concerning resistant infec- tious agents. Illness-associated depression impairs quality of life and several aspects of the functioning of patients with chronic diseases; moreover, it results in higher health care utilization and costs.

Some- times those who led the battles seemed to forget why it was important to keep students in school longer; to forget that the fight for higher enroll- ments was part of a crusade against ignorance, and that institutions would be judged by what their students had learned as well as by how many were enrolled.

This is an important and timely contribution to the highly polarised debate on public and private higher education in South Africa. Neither overtly for the private provision of higher education, nor against, it begins from the assumption that private provision is a reality to be engaged with and that what is required is policy and practice which ensures that private higher education institutions function to increase skills levels in line with national higher education objectives.

By contrast, the present system is based on utilitarian values to transform knowledge into commodities. Within this context we see the dehumanization of our children, young people and students. I assume that the function of higher education is to reify ruling class values into the social consciousness of students, and to train students to serve the capitalist machinery.
