  What are the methods of teaching?

  This course combines research-led teaching and experiential forms of work-based learning. Throughout the course the emphasis is on identifying core principles and practices and applying these to cases drawn from your personal experience in the workplace.

In addition, you will be expected to set up and take part in a number of learning forums outside the classroom, such as peer review groups and learning sets.
