MA Education (Creative & Critical Practice) - Course Structure and Content
The award of MA will be made to participants who successfully complete 120 credits of taught modules plus a 60 credit dissertation. Participants who complete the taught modules only (120 credits) may be awarded a Postgraduate Diploma while those completing the 3 core modules (60 credits) may be awarded a Postgraduate Certificate.
In year 1, participants complete three core modules (1 of 30 and 2 of 15 credits.) and two option modules (15 credits each).
In year 2, participants take a research methods module (30 credits) and the dissertation (60 credits).
Assessment
Participants must complete work-related written assignments for each module, plus a 15,000-20,000 word dissertation. The assignments will provide opportunities to investigate key aspects of their own practice, consider them in the light of theory and literature, and reflect on the implications of their findings.
