Year One Education Studies (BA Hons)

About Education Studies:

Undergraduates enrolled on this degree course will take learning beyond the classroom, studying education in its broadest sense, specifically considering how a community is educated both inside and outside a classroom environment. They will learn about various aspects of
education, spanning from early childhood to adult learning, and explore subjects such as sociology, educational policy, globalisation's impact on education, the integration of technology in teaching, and the pursuit of social justice within educational systems.

Project Details:

Our Education Studies students are particularly interested in working with you to explore how people learn and develop throughout their lives—and specifically how your organisation contributes to that learning and/or development.

While the issues related to the subjects mentioned above are guides, your project doesn't have to be limited to these topics. It could cover a wide range of themes and may include research, creating resources, or even designing interactive games.

Examples of project proposals may include (but are not limited to):

• Research Reviews: Students can analyse and summarise educational research articles in clear, accessible language, highlighting key findings and implications for teaching practice outside of a traditional classroom setting.
• Creating Educational Materials: Students can design educational materials such as infographics, illustrated posters, or interactive digital resources.
• Collaborative Learning Games: Students can devise interactive learning games or group activities that promote collaboration, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills while aligning with early childhood curriculum objectives.
• Role-Play Simulations: Students can develop role-play scenarios or dramatic enactments that immerse young learners in real-world contexts, developing empathy, communication, and social-emotional development.
