Advance your professional practice through creative, critical and research-informed approaches to teaching and learning, including the application to educational policy and practice. - This programme is designed for educators and practitioners working across a wide range of contexts, including teachers, writers, artists, language educators, cultural practitioners, youth workers, and professionals working across educational, social, and cultural fields. - You’ll examine how education operates within complex social, cultural and institutional systems and reflect on your own professional environments while developing thoughtful approaches to teaching, facilitation, curriculum design, educational leadership, policy and practice. - You’ll explore how educational practices can support creativity, participation and learning across a wide range of formal and informal contexts. - Through interaction with Goldsmiths' long-standing community partners, you’ll investigate how learning is designed, mediated and experienced within these environments, and how educational policies and practices respond to social change, cultural diversity and new forms of knowledge production. - At the centre of the MA is a shared commitment to researching professional practice. - As part of your studies, you will have the opportunity to hone in on a practice specialism. - This is a self-directed focus that reflects your professional interests, creative practice and future ambitions. You may centre your work within one of four broad areas: Creative Writing and Education Arts and Learning Languages Inclusive Education, Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, and Educational Leadership
