Summary
The MA Education (Literacy) gives students a unique opportunity to explore how literacy operates in a diverse and changing world. Recognising that literacy is a social practice in a multilingual and multimodal world, this MA considers how literacy has been, and continues to be understood and politicised. Our modules focus on the various ways in which literacy is perceived, valued, used and appraised, across a range of life domains and cultural contexts. As a result, this MA explores how literacy links with constructions of power, agency and gender and considers the implications of this for all.
Modular (flexible) students - Some postgraduate taught and MRes programmes are available on a modular basis. Modular study lasts between 2 and 5 years. This is different to a part-time study which lasts for a fixed period.
