We encourage both individual and co-operative learning and research and hope to foster an ethos of lifelong learning. We aim to build on the expertise of our students, many of whom are experienced teachers, and who bring with them a wealth of knowledge and practical experience from a wide range of different countries.
Student feedback is integral to our learning and teaching, and you will have the opportunity to contribute to the student experience as Student Representatives, as well as through informal conversations with the Programme Director and teaching team throughout the course.
Coursework and assessment
You will study four course units in each semester, six of which are core and two of which are optional.
The form of assessment varies by course unit. However, most involve a 3,000-word written assessment, which may be in the form of an essay, a critical review of literature, or a research report. Formative and summative feedback is provided.
The dissertation is the report of an empirical research project investigation of an aspect of education, and is 15,000 words in length.
