Location of The University of Manchester
The course is designed for experienced teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (including teachers of EFL, ESL, EAL, ESP, and so on) in whatever geographical context or type of institution they are working. Applications from both native- and non-native-English-speaking teachers are welcome.
The MA in Educational Technology and TESOL Course aims to enable experienced practitioners to: further their careers with regard to obtaining positions of seniority, embed practice within a research dimension, contribute to the professional development of other teachers, and act in advisory capacities to teaching and associated agencies. It also aims to help participants develop advanced knowledge and deeper understanding of TESOL-related research, theory, and areas of debate, particularly in the field of educational technology; understand more deeply their roles as TESOL practitioners given the international currency of English and the developments in the educational environment afforded by technology access and global networking; adapt and design teaching and learning resources; and develop their academic literacy so that can complete their MA course and thereafter undertake further academic studies.
