Oor die teologiese inhoud van die Belydenis van Belhar by D. J. Smit

“…Regarding the Confession of Belhar, the theological content consists in three confessional claims (each including allusions to the false teaching that is implicitly thereby unmasked and rejected) within the broader framework of an introduction and conclusion, involving key theological claims as well, respectively about the nature of the church and the lordship of Jesus Christ. After some interpretive comments on all five of these structural aspects – the introduction and conclusion and the three claims – brief consideration is given to the nature of reception of confessional documents in the Reformed tradition and some implications for the reception of the theological content of the Confession of Belhar. …”

Developing inclusive education policy and practice for looked after children by Joe Francis

“…Given all the evidence that looked-after children have extraordinary educational needs (Dixon and Stein, 2002; 2005; Francis, 2000; 2007; Goddard, 2000; HM Inspectors of Schools and the Social Work Services Inspectorate, 2001; Jackson and Sachdev, 2001) and the belief in some quarters that looked-after children in general require special education measures, it is important to consider whether a broader interpretation of the current statutory requirements relating to inclusive education for children with 'additional support needs' might enhance the education of this vulnerable group. …”

An exact bound for tail probabilities for a class of conditionally symmetric bounded martingales by Dainius Dzindzalieta

Estimating Shoulder-Complex Mobility by Bertrand Tondu

“…So we suggest basing it on a bone schematisation derived from an extension of Dempster’s historical notation associated to mechanical interpretation of the physiological joints involved. In so doing, the proposed shoulder complex mobility leads to justifying a nine-DOF serial-chain upper-limb mode, which extends the classical seven-DOF arm–foream–wrist model and completing it by adding a clavicle-like link with a two-DOF mobility.…”
