Summary
The PACES-MEd Mathematics Education route is for anyone with a research or professional interest in mathematics education at any level of education (primary, secondary, or tertiary), wanting to undertake advanced study in a world-class setting. The Mathematics Education route is taught by a specialist team, and its student cohort is drawn primarily from UK-based professionals most of whom continue in their full-time posts while taking the course part-time.
The Mathematics Education course develops students' understanding of a number of important issues in the field of mathematics education. Students learn to interpret and critically engage with ideas and debates in mathematics education research in three ways:
-
taught sessions in mathematics education;
-
work on course assignments under the supervision of a member of the teaching team; and
-
participation in seminars led by students on the route and in project workshops.
The PACES-MEd course introduces students to research skills and specialist knowledge. Its main aims are as follows:
-
to examine the theoretical frameworks used in the study of education and its constituent disciplines;
-
provide training in research methods appropriate to education;
-
advance students’ capacity for professional reflection and judgment;
-
cater to a range of specialists interested within the field of education or one of its constituent disciplines.
