Course summary

The Education and Technology MA offers students the opportunity to develop both theoretical and practical approaches to education and technology. The MA is available for both campus and distance learning modes. The MA is based at UCL Knowledge Lab, a ground-breaking research centre that uses the latest evidence to design and implement innovative educational technology and pedagogies that shape the future of education and learning. As such, students are supported by teaching staff who are all active researchers from a range of fields including education, sociology and computer science. Students will develop the skills to design, use and critically appraise education and technology across a wide range of settings (e.g., schools, universities, professional contexts, informal learning environments). Students will learn to adopt a research-based approach to education and technology that equips them for a variety of careers in the education and technology field. 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.
