“…South African studies further suggest that intrinsic and extrinsic factors interplay in the manifestation of SLDs (Nel & Grosser, 2016). There is strong evidence that cognitive and intellectual disabilities also form part of the group of barriers that can affect learning, reasoning, problem solving and memory negatively (Jooste & Jooste, 2011). There is an equally strong sense that socioeconomic factors, such as poverty and nutritional issues, affect the physical and socioemotional well-being of a child (Geldenhuys & Weavers, 2013).…”

BackgroundThis conceptual article is inspired by the first phase of a doctoral research project that aimed to develop and validate a bilingual language assessment test for IsiZulu-English-speaking children in grades 1, 2 and 3 with language-based learning disabilities (L-b LDs) in South Africa.ObjectivesPhase 1, systematic literature review, pretesting and formulating of a theoretical framework, with the aim to determine early indicators of L-b LDs; this is important for developing a clinical language test as it determines its constructs.MethodThematic analysis was used to develop the models.ResultsThis article reviews the literature on indicators and definitions of L-b LD, introduces models that were developed in the study to conceptualise L-b LD and discusses implications for language test development.ConclusionThe models provided in this article conceptualise L-b LD and identify its early indicators. The application of these models in both educational and clinical settings is proposed for differentiation of L-b LD.

With the Public demanding efficient and transparent procedures and the clients as well as the vendors seeking lower cost and flexibility in Public Procurement Process (PPP), PPP is becoming more complicated, expensive and fragile. Proper methods of feasible benefits of Public E-Procurement (PEP) are quickly becoming a major influence in the mainstream of Public Procurement Enterprises (PPE). PEP is intended to improve transparency, efficiency, and value for money by exposing various procurement activities as tasks over the internet. Current PEP Procedures lacks an organized framework to capture the essential tasks required for successful Procurement Processes, it also pays little attention to task complexity as an important key design feature that impacts other internal PEP attributes. Although traditional Procurement methods have been with us for sometimes, until now no one has provided a reliable PEP framework. This paper proposed a framework based on Business Process Management and Notation Approach (BPMN) for the implementation of PEP by dealing separately with strategic tasks. The BPMN can help PPE simplify and regulate PEP implementation by explicit identification of PEP specific tasks in the BPMN. We provide an example case study to demonstrate proposed PEP task. Twenty users were engaged, the result showed the tool to be a preferred choice to the traditional method of a bidding process. The benefits of PEP to its adopters were also investigated.
