“…All are critically endangered on the IUCN redlist. Cycads are priced per centimeter of stem height (or circumference, depending on age), and each of these commands well over US$50 per cm (Hugo 2017). The difficulty in accurately identifying cycad species was a concern for collectors and officials and was widely discussed as a factor that made the illicit trade so lively.…”

Cycads play a central role in Lobedu cultural mythology, with widespread acknowledgment of their cultural and spiritual values, as well as their instrumental use in rainmaking and coronation ceremonies. They are also widely prized as collectors’ items, both nationally and internationally, commanding high prices and placing them in the unenviable position of being among the world's most frequently trafficked plants. South African cycad species, most of which are endangered and all of which are protected, are heavily regulated, with the ownership, trade, and use of cycads requiring a permit. This article explores how regulations are understood by different stakeholders in cycad conservation. Traditional authorities, state institutions, and communities may collaborate in conservation, but also interpret and enact policies divergently. Processes of regulating cycad trade and propagation both reinforce and challenge certain aspects of community identity.

“…Where the two are brought together, there is the potential for deep and cumulative learning. Concepts create linking mechanisms for moving between diverse, context-specific instances of content and know-how-to and the world of generalisation and abstraction (Hugo, 2013). The model proposes a focus on two key competencies that aim to highlight the connection between knowledge-that and know-how-to: performance competencies 5 and judgement competencies.…”

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the impact of the Curriculum Design Coherence Model (CDC Model – Rata, 2019) on the design practice of two music teachers in a middle school music class in New Zealand. The CDC Model proposes that deep learning first requires deep design coherence. This coherence is generated by three interrelated design dimensions: (i) the ‘surfacing’ of epistemic structure, (ii) the use of subject concepts and (iii) the interrelationship between ‘knowledge-that’ (knowledge of something) and ‘know-how-to’ (knowing how to do something with that knowledge of something). We discuss how the model has been put to use in the design of a song writing unit of work for students aged 10–12 years in a general music class and note the impact of the model on the developing design expertise of the two music teachers involved in a wider research project.
