| Course description | This course provides the opportunity for an individual course member or group to engage in supported self-study in a specialist area not covered by another course within the MSc IT and Education Programme. The course topic must fall within the domains of study covered by the MTD Programme and is conditional on there being supervisors and assessors who have expertise in the topic area.
Only one individually negotiated study course is allowed to contribute towards any award within the programme.
Each independent study course will involve a written contract drawn up by the course member(s) in consultation with his/her/group supervisor. Supervisors will be appointed by the Programme Leader, with the consent of the supervisor's Head of Department. The contract will be agreed by the supervisor and a second member of academic staff, and will be presented to the School Postgraduate Studies Committee for ratification. It will then be placed within the course member's file. A contract may be drawn up for an individual or a group. The contract will contain the following elements:
