In this pathway of the MA Education students will explore lifelong learning in the here and now, and in terms of what educational opportunities could be available in the future. Lifelong learning is something that everyone engages in, and most educationalists have a view as to what it is. Lifelong Learning pathway modules have two consecutive full days of delivery, usually sessions 2-6 which are scheduled on dates which coincide with a Derbyshire school's half term holiday. Sessions 1, 7 and 8 will be mid-week 5pm - 8pm sessions. This ’block’ delivery allows students to concentrate on the module material in a much more intensive manner and also encourages participants to network and share elements of their practice and approaches in an informal environment during breaks.
