Morena boloka etjhaba sa heso,O fedise dintwa la matshwenyeho,

O se boloke, O se boloke setjhaba sa heso,

Setjhaba sa South Afrika – South Afrika.

Uit die blou van onse hemel, Uit die diepte van ons see,Oor ons ewige gebergtes,

Waar die kranse antwoord gee,

Let us live and strive for freedom, In South Africa our land.

DISTINGUISHED TEACHER AWARD

The Distinguished Teacher Award, given one only to an individual, recognises teaching at any or all levels by a member of the faculty that has made a significant and lasting impression on students.

Previous recipients in the Faculty of Commerce have been:

2001 N Nattrass (Economics)2009 C Fourie (Education Development Unit, Commerce)2013 P Maughan (College of Accounting)2014 LC Ronnie (Graduate School of Business)2015 J Kew (College of Accounting)

The following member of the Faculty of Commerce has been chosen for this award in 2017:

Associate Professor Jimmy WinfieldCollege of Accounting

Jimmy combines the best of many teaching worlds. He has taught students of every age from 10 to 60. At UCT, for each of the past few years, he has lectured at least 1 800 students for at least 18 hours in at least six different courses for the College of Accounting, the Philosophy Department, and the Graduate School of Business. These vast numbers reveal incredible versatility: on any given day, he teaches first-years, final-years, graduates, mature students, debits and credits, Kant and ubuntu.

Another remarkable element of Jimmy’s teaching is his capacity and energy for well-placed innovation. He has been a driving force behind the creation of three new courses, including Business Ethics, now taken by virtually every Commerce student. He also constantly finds ways to improve his students’ experience, such as the enormously successful JumpStart intervention to help vulnerable first-year Accounting students; and novel systems to motivate students to identify how much homework to do and to help them maximise their learning while doing it.

Jimmy’s boldest aim is to treat each of the students in his huge classrooms as an individual. He explicitly embraces the rich diversity of students; he reassures them that each is profoundly worthy of his time and respect; he encourages confidence, no matter who you are; he is obsessive about using clear, unambiguous and accessible language; he invites questions, and is meticulous about answering them; he asks questions, and listens just as closely to the answers; he acknowledges the many ways he went wrong as a student; and he always does his best to speak to a few hundred people as if he is talking to just one.

DISTINGUISHED TEACHER AWARD (CONTINUED)

In return, his students consistently give him great evaluations. One remarked: “Teachers are a dime a dozen, but an educator is something more. An educator takes a holistic approach to their students’ learning process. Jimmy Winfield is an educator.” Another noted: “He has the unique ability to make lectures about the somewhat dry concepts of accounting entertaining and engaging, as he incorporates real-world examples accompanied by a healthy dose of humour into each session”. Colleague Jean Luyt added “Jimmy is one of the most dedicated educators I have worked with. He is dynamic, innovative, and thorough in all that he does. He does his best to provide the necessary environment for students to thrive.”

Jimmy Winfield is meticulous, conscientious, and scrupulous. He exhibits excellent judgment, and deals with complex problems, including students’ personal difficulties, in a wise and reasonable manner. Thus his commitment and passion for teaching and learning is visible inside and outside of the classroom. For all these reasons and more, he is a worthy recipient of the 2016 Distinguished Teacher’s Award.
