Learning and Teaching Information:

Autumn/Spring Year 3

The module will be delivered in a range of ways including; workshops, tutorials – face to face and/or on-line, tutor led input, coaching from school-based colleagues, flexible learning materials, electronic support including VLE-based materials, email and computer conferencing.

The module, together with its pre-requisite MTL Module 7 Professional Practice Enquiry 1, involves a strong element of sustained independent self-directed study.

There will be an introductory group session, accompanied by online resources, to introduce the module requirements, and support the implementation of the project plan created in MTL Module 7. This also provides a forum to discuss ongoing and potential new collaborative engagement with other participants. Students will be required to continue engaging with their tutor and MTL coach in their school while implementing their project plan.

At the beginning of this module students will review their own needs in relation support for this stage of the project and will agree a pattern of supervision with their tutor which will also be coordinated by them with their MTL coach. The supervisor will provide tutorials, read and comment on work, as it develops, and report on your progress as required. Tutorial support may take place individually or in group sessions. It may include telephone and/or electronic support.

Participants working in similar areas will continue to be encouraged to collaborate and provide peer support. This may take the form of learning sets and/or the use of online discussion forums.
