| dc.description.abstract | The Academic Support Programme for Engineering at the University of Cape Town (ASPECT) has operated under a slowly evolving model since its inception in 1989. Different models of access and curriculum are frequently under consideration and in 2014 we had the opportunity to put into practice a new model, involving self-selection and delayed transition into ASPECT driven by first term assessment. In this paper we present a historical overview, reflect on the 2014 experiences of students and staff in light of relevant theory and conclude with an argument in favour of the delayed transition model. | en_ZA |
