This is a distance learning course for those who hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) with 120 valid credits. The programme will build on your PGDE learning, helping you to gain all the skills necessary to conduct a masters-level dissertation study in your own professional context.
We teach this course through a series of Saturday study schools. You'll also have one-to-one support for your dissertation from a personal tutor.
During the study schools you'll explore practitioner research methodologies, develop your project, and share and debate ideas in a supportive environment.
The study schools are complemented by online materials on research methods and methodologies. You'll benefit from expertise and support via email, Skype, phone calls or visits.
