Cambridge University Press978-0-521-68064-6 - NSSC Development Studies Module 1Innocent Mweti and Herold van WykFrontmatterMore informationIntroductionWelcome to Module 1 of Development Studies. These modules aredesigned for learners who are preparing to write the NamibianSenior Secondary Certificate (NSSC) Development Studiesexamination. Development Studies is about processes of changewhich affect the countries of the world and the people who live inthem. To describe these processes, Development Studies draws onother subjects like Geography, History, Economics, BusinessStudies/Management and Politics, so as to give you a betterunderstanding of the world you live in.In Development Studies we look at processes which are alwayschanging. This means that there is not always a single rightanswer to every question. What is important is that you try tounderstand the arguments and facts in these modules, and thatyou think for yourself and make up your own mind. After all,Development Studies is about the world that you live in, so youhave first-hand experience about it!The questions in the Development Studies examination will notalways ask you simply to repeat facts, but will test how much youhave thought about the issues that you have studied. Because ofthis, don’t think of each unit in the modules as a self-containedunit that can be forgotten after you have read it. DevelopmentStudies is about a lot of different processes which are related toone another, so we will keep reminding you about earlier work asyou progress.At the end of the final module you will find a unit about preparingfor the Development Studies examinations. In this unit we willshow you the kind of questions you can expect and we will explainhow you would go about answering them.How does the course work?In the diagram on the next page, you can see that this course isdivided into three modules, each one in a separate book. Go back tothe Contents page of this module. You will see that the module isdivided into five units each dealing with a different topic. Eachunit is further divided into different sections which contain theskills and content you will learn, as well as different kinds ofactivities.If you are studying through a distance education college, once youhave completed Module 1, you will write a test called an End-ofmodule assignment and post it in to the college. The assignmentwill be marked by a tutor who will also comment on yourperformance and progress. If you are happy with the feedbackyou receive from the college, then you can continue with the nextmodule. Cambridge University Presswww.cambridge.org

If you are a schoollearner, your teacher will help you to assess your work once youhave completed it. Here are some of the things you will need to dothe activities: a notebook and pen or pencil, to write down the answers tosome of the activities a calculator, for doing mathematical calculations a dictionary might be useful to look up words which you don’tunderstand an atlas will help you locate the different countries which arementioned in the modules.

Nutrition of ruminants Developing production systems for ruminants using tropical feed resources requires an understanding of the relative roles and nutrient needs of the two-compartment system represented by the symbiotic relationship between rumen micro-organisms and the host animal. Fibre-rich, low-protein forages and crop residues are the most abundant and appropriate feeds for ruminants .
