Please forward the following announcement and the attached poster to any interested colleagues. Many thanks and best wishes, Irene Doctorate in Education (EdD) call for applications We are delighted to invite applications for our postgraduate programme, the Doctorate in Education (EdD) at the School of Education and Lifelong Learning at the University of East Anglia (see www.uea.ac.uk/edu/pg/dredu> ) Established in 1997, the EdD has been designed to meet the needs of professionals working in areas related to education, training and development who can draw on their everyday practice towards gaining a doctorate. It is a part-time course in which you will be able to conduct your own programme of research over five years. In years one and two you will attend teaching sessions in educational theory and research methods in the form of four weekend study blocks and you will design your research project which you will carry out in years three, four and five. You will work with a supervisor (and a supervisory team) who will support you throughout your study. The School of Education and Lifelong Learning has a longstanding international reputation in applied research. We work actively to advance interdisciplinary and intercultural approaches to education, and collaborate with researchers from a broad range of disciplines to explore issues around participation, engagement and social justice. Our EdD is delivered by a team of highly qualified and experienced academic staff with substantial track records and continuing involvement in educational research, and with excellent ratings in teaching quality assessments. Our research areas include Literacy and Development, Mathematics Education, Cultural Studies in Education, Physical Education Pedagogy and Higher Education and Society. If you want to investigate further educational, social, professional or organisational issues; if you would like to understand better issues related to your everyday work experience and context; or, if you would like to acquire skills as an independent researcher, our EdD programme will be the perfect environment to fulfil your aspirations. The closing date for applications is 31st May 2016. Please visit the EdD website (www.uea.ac.uk/edu/pg/dredu) and if you have any queries in relation to an aspect of the EdD or would like to discuss your application please do not hesitate to contact Dr Irene Biza at i.biza at uea.ac.uk. ---------------------------------------------------------- Dr Irene Biza Lecturer in Mathematics Education - Director of the Doctorate in Education (EdD) programme School of Education and Lifelong Learning, Room LSB-1.30, University of East Anglia, NR4 7TJ, Norwich, UK, Tel: +44 (0)1603 591741 url: http://www.uea.ac.uk/education/people/profile/i-biza#overviewTab, Publications: http://www.uea.ac.uk/education/people/profile/i-biza#publicationsTab NEW: Biza, I., Joel, G., & Nardi, E.
