(b) In considering each application for admission to a programme of study, evidence shall be sought of personal, professional and educational qualifications and/or experiences that provide indications of ability to meet the demands of the programme (UWS Regulation 6.1.1b).

(c) Applicants whose first language is not English must provide formal, official proof that they meet the English language requirements specified in Section 6.2 of the University Regulatory Framework, that is, must have an IELTS score of 6.0 or equivalent.
In addition, evidence of English proficiency must be no more than three years old counting back from the anticipated start date of the programme. If the applicant has been working or studying in an English speaking country for a substantial period of time, this can be taken into consideration as long as a statement to this effect is included in his/her references. If the applicant has studied at degree level in an English speaking country for a period of one year or more, this can also be taken into consideration as long as the programme was taught and assessed entirely in English and was undertaken in the last three years counting back from the anticipated start date of the programme. Relevant transcripts must be provided as evidence of this and a relevant statement must be included in the references (UWS Regulation 6.6).

(d) Applicants will be required to supply two references in support of their application to join the programme. Therefore applicants will need to ensure, in good time, that their referees are willing and able to write a reference (letter of recommendation) on their behalf. Referees should be in a position to provide an informed view of the applicant’s academic ability and suitability for their chosen programme of study and any other information they consider as being relevant to the individual’s application. In this respect applicants may wish to supply their prospective referees with an overview of the chosen programme so that they can comment on the individual’s ability to meet with the general demands of, and the specific practical aspects associated with the programme.

General Overview

The Master of Education (MEd) in TESOL (Teaching of English to Speakers of Other Languages) programme is designed for participants who have an interest in working with learners of English.

The Master of Education in TESOL is delivered, administered and supported in a blended format, that is, through direct, face-to-face teaching and through the UWS virtual learning environment (VLE).

Each module ‘site’ will typically have the following interactive areas: Main Announcements, Main/Group Discussion Boards, Module Information, Week-by-week Activities and an Assessment Area. In addition to these interactive areas students also have links to module and course documentation, guides on academic writing etc. Every module is constructed around the same basic architecture that ensures continuity for students as they progress. The fact that the Master of Education in TESOL contains a significant amount of online input means that there are some specific challenges - as well as opportnities - in ensuring appropriate and effective student guidance and support.

Our strategy to overcome these challenges includes the following:

Clear online communication protocols: This includes the provision of ‘service level’ statements that ensure that student expectation levels are established prior to embarkation on the programme. This avoids misunderstanding and miscommunication arising.

Appropriate and meaningful online induction: New students to the online environment are provided with a brief online induction period prior to the formal commencement of a module. The induction period is designed to allow all participants to overcome any technical issues and to familiarise themselves with the environment in general terms thus enabling the student to focus on the learning from day 1 of the module.

In general, our approach to teaching and learning online is continually refined in light of experience and best practice originating from local, national and international research in this area. More specifically, the online features of the programme enable learners to work at a time and place to suit both their personal and professional commitments and all modules across the programme are designed using an integrated model of online learning.

The teaching style adopted across the programme is more that of a facilitator. This approach is also designed to foster a ‘community of professional practice’ which is grounded in social constructivist pedagogy and, in this way, learners develop into independent learners who are capable of demonstrating the competences required when studying at SCQF Level 11.

Additional tutorial support to enhance the online student experience will be given to all students by the English Language Unit staff.

Course Structure

To achieve the MEd in TESOL, students must complete 6 taught modules which are each calibrated at 20 credit points, plus a final, single dissertation calibrated at 60 credit points; a programme total of 180 credits as follows:

 - Postgraduate Certificate (3 modules, 60 Credits)

 - Postgraduate Diploma (3 modules, 60 credits)

 - Masters dissertation (1 module, final 60 Credits)

Course Content

Postgraduate Certificate.

New entrants to the MEd in TESOL programme will undertake two of the following core modules:

  • EDUC11111 Language Analysis
  • LING11007 Theory and Practice in TESOL
  • EDUC11067 Educational Research
  • LING11006 Second Language Acquisition

In addition, candidates wishing to complete the Postgraduate Certificate in TESOL will select and undertake one further 20 credit point module from an options bank (see below).

Options Bank Modules:

  • LING11002 English as a Global Language
  • LING11004 Language, Identity and Power
  • LING11001 Applied Linguistics
  • EDUC11146 Technology-Enhanced Language Learning 
  • LING11005 Teaching English to Young Learners 
  • EDUC11112 TESOL: The Scottish Context

Postgraduate Diploma.

The PG Diploma level is made up of the remaining two core modules, plus a further option module from the above options bank.

Upon successful completion of the PG Diploma, learners will progress to the final dissertation stage of the MEd award.

Master of Education.

The Masters Dissertation module will involve students designing, implementing, evaluating and writing up a research project in a work related topic of their own choosing.

Part-time Route

A flexible approach to part-time delivery allows candidates to complete the full MEd TESOL programme over a maximum period of three years. Candidates can select which modules, and how many to complete, within each academic year. On completion of all six modules (4 core plus two options), candidates may progress to the Masters Dissertation in T3 of their final year. 

Part-time students will normally take 1 core module each trimester, with 1 optional module each year. However, there are various part-time routes through this Master's programme which have been tailored to reflect the background and practitioner status of applicants wishing to take the programme on a part-time basis. 

The part-time programme can be taken flexibly with students being given guidance on whether they can take 1 or 2 modules within each trimester.  The constants are the Trimesters: Modules cannot be taken in trimesters outwith those identified at Validation of the programme, and outlined in the Programme Specification.

Following successful completion of the MEd in TESOL, students would be able to undertake further study towards PhD or EdD level.

This Programme will be delivered in blended mode: by direct, face-to-face teaching of weekly three-hour classes per module and online through UWS’ VLE. The learning and teaching approaches adopted are compliant with UWS Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategy [LTAS]. Coursework associated with each module will include provision for support using e-learning materials and students will make use of e-learning methods such as remotely accessing readings and research journals, asynchronous communication with tutors and fellow students including the use of e-mail and discussion boards. Formative and summative assessments will be used including essays, assignments, individual and group presentations and online discussions. Strategies for personal development planning will be incorporated into each of the modules. Students will be encouraged to plan for the achievement of their personal development goals at the start of each module and plan a review session at the end of each module allowing students to reflect on their personal development in situ and link these developments to their professional profile. Students will be encouraged to plan and review their personal development goals in line with the learning outcomes of each module in relation to the course aims and objectives. The assessment strategies of this programme will aim to support the students in the process of learning and to develop key practical and academic skills. The assessment strategies reflect these dual aims. Assessment regulations will be in line with the University of the West of Scotland Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategy. In the MEd dissertation module students will be allocated an academic supervisor. They will agree to communicate at regular intervals for supervision. Students will already have successfully completed a research methods module in the Postgraduate Diploma. On-line tutorials will be offered regularly to discuss general academic issues relating to writing a MEd dissertation. Students must complete research within a learning and teaching setting or other approved focus as agreed with the Programme Leader, Module Coordinator and Dissertation Supervisor. This research will be presented as a thesis that satisfies the University requirements for a MEd thesis (UWS Regulation 8.12).


Graduate Attributes, Employability & Personal Development Planning

Participants in the MEd in TESOL will develop and enhance their employability skills in the areas of Knowledge and Understanding; Applied Knowledge and Understanding; Generic Cognitive Skills; Communication, ICT and Numeracy Skills; Autonomy, Accountability and Working with Others, as encompassed by SCQF Level 11. They will develop and enhance these skills in ways specific to and of direct relevance to their own professional context and to the demands and issues inherent within current and anticipated developments within education.

In line with UWS guidance and protocols for Personal Development Planning (PDP) elements of personal and critical reflection are embedded via coursework and assessment across the programme but the overall approach to PDP is also informed by the following important consideration(s).

(1) Those participants from within the education sector embarking on the programme already have maintained a CPD portfolio and undertake an Annual Career Reviews as part of their contractual duties

(2) Other professionals embarking on the programme are likely to be subject to similar requirements.

Work Based Learning/Placement Details

This Programme relates to a student’s existing or future professional context and fits within the University’s definition of work related learning (WRL). Ideally, students on the programme will already be working, or have worked, in a context relating to learning, teaching or training where they have, or have had, access to materials and learners. Rather than offering work placements, the programme includes practical teaching sessions where students engage directly with learners of English. These work-based opportunities take place during the Theory and Practice in TESOL module. 

Engagement

In line with the Academic Engagement Procedure, Students are defined as academically engaged if they are regularly engaged with timetabled teaching sessions, course-related learning resources including those in the Library and on the relevant learning platform, and complete assessments and submit these on time.

Where a programme has Professional, Statutory or Regulatory Body requirements these will be listed here:

All fulltime students (part-time and distance-learning students should check with their programme leader for any queries) are required to attend all scheduled classes and participate with all delivered elements of the module as part of their engagement with their programme of study. Consideration will be given to students who have protection under the appropriate equality law. Please refer to UWS Regulations, Chapter 1, 1.64 – 1.67, available at the following link: http://www.uws.ac.uk/current-students/rights-and-regulations/regulatory-framework/

Equality and Diversity

The University's Equality, Diversity and Human Rights Procedure can be accessed at the following link: UWS Equality and Diversity Policy

Aligned with the overall commitment to equality and diversity stated in the Programme Specifications, the module supports equality of opportunity for students from all backgrounds and with different learning needs. Using the virtual learning environment, learning materials will be presented electronically in formats that allow flexible access and manipulation of content (part-time and distance-learning students should check with their programme leader for any queries). The module complies with University regulations and guidance on inclusive learning and teaching practice. Specialist assistive equipment, support provision and adjustment to assessment practice will be made in accordance with UWS policy and regulations. The University’s Equality, Diversity and Human Rights Policy can be accessed at the following link: http://www.uws.ac.uk/equality/

Our partners are fully committed to the principles and practice of inclusiveness and our modules are designed to be accessible to all. Where this module is delivered overseas, local equivalent support for students and appropriate legislation applies.
