In order to broaden your knowledge and understanding of a range of educational contexts, and to develop insights beyond the classroom you will undertake a placement experience in an education setting of your choice. Such placements might for example, include time spent supporting individuals or groups in a SEN or early childhood context or in some other organisation which has an educational element to its work, for example a theatre or museum. Through this module you will be introduced to the importance of context in education and the complexities of education at large. You will be responsible for organising and then completing a self-funded, three week placement researching a mutually agreed topic and question. This module will help develop your research skills as outlined in the module ‘Research in Education in a new cultural context.
