The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the relationship between gender and communication and to examine how communication shapes, reflects, and challenges gender identities, roles, and power relations in society. The course explores key theories and concepts in gender communication while critically examining the influence of interpersonal communication, language, media, culture, politics, and digital technologies on the construction and representation of gender. Drawing on examples from Namibia, Africa, and the wider global context, students will analyse how communication practices contribute to issues such as gender inequality, representation, stereotyping, inclusion, advocacy, and social change. The course also explores contemporary issues, including gender and social media, artificial intelligence, online harassment, and digital activism. By the end of the course, students will have developed the critical knowledge and analytical skills required to evaluate gendered communication practices and to promote inclusive, ethical, and socially responsible communication in professional and everyday contexts.

The course aims to provide students with knowledge of the types of different spatial databases. Students will also be able to design a spatial database using FOSS GIS, populate the spatial tables and perform basic spatial analysis. Other areas to be covered include ESRI geo-database types and supported elements, Working with ESRI geo-database subtypes, domains and relationship rules, ESRI geo-database Annotation: Creating, editing, and managing annotation features, ESRI geo-database Topology rules, management and editing and Utility Networks and analysis.

Welcome to GIS 2
Get ready to explore the exciting world of geospatial data. In this course, you’ll learn how to acquire spatial data, solve real-world problems, perform basic vector analysis, and understand the importance of metadata.
This course introduces the theory and practice of basic geospatial analysis, focusing on:
- Data Acquisition – Learn how spatial data is sourced and prepared
- Spatial Problem Analysis – Use GIS to understand and solve real-world issues
- Basic Spatial Analysis (Vector) – Explore how vector data helps analyze patterns
- Metadata – Understand how data documentation supports GIS integrity
What You’ll Learn
By the end of this course, you should be able to:
- Explain spatial file formats and describe how to create/edit GIS layers
- Analyze spatial problems and evaluate GIS-based solutions
- Apply vector-based spatial analysis techniques appropriately
- Define and create metadata using standard formats and assess its quality
