Education (Literacy) MA

Students who complete the MA Education (Literacy) will have the skills and knowledge to reflect critically on the role of literacy within a variety of contexts, including schools, the home and the workplace.  Using a primarily socio-cultural perspective, this MA explores literacy use and learning across the life span and across a range of life domains and cultural contexts. Having engaged with a range of different theoretical approaches in the study of literacy, this MA gives students an opportunity to conduct a small-scale study of their own into an aspect of literacy that is relevant to the student.
