Modules

This extended independent study is the culmination of work on the MA Education. Students will be expected to present a proposal for approval and ethical approval prior to carrying out the study. With the support of an individual supervisor, students will conceptualise, plan, implement and reflect upon an empirical or reflective/theoretical study that addresses a key issue or a development in practice that is of personal immediacy. Students will select appropriate methods to examine the research questions that they have raised, and will apply relevant theory to their consideration of it. Data will be presented and analysed in ways appropriate to the research questions, and will contribute to transformed thinking and practice in the student's professional context. Students will write an extended report of their research.
