Abstract

The higher education institutions of Southern Africa are faced with a crucial task of developing graduates who hold the necessary knowledge, skills, attitudes and requisite values to address the complex sustainability challenges in the region. The efficacy of modularised curricula in nurturing graduates capable of addressing the region’s intricate sustainability issues remains a subject of contention. The chapter explores this debate, examining the historical tensions, theoretical frameworks, and practical considerations associated with modularised curricula. Drawing on diverse disciplinary examples and empirical data from Southern Africa higher education institutions, the chapter assesses how instructional processes, assessment methods, and interdisciplinary collaboration are shaped by modular structures. The chapter uncovers both the potential of modularity to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills for sustainable development as well as the obstacles it poses in promoting holistic understanding and transformative learning. Ultimately, this chapter provides nuanced insights into actionable insights for Southern Africa universities to optimise the benefits of modularised curricula while mitigating their limitations, thereby equipping a generation of graduates capable of building a greener and more prosperous region.
