About this Unit
This unit is the final component in the Master of Arts in TESOL course. Equipped with knowledge and research skills developed in previous course components, students undertake independent and guided research activities and propose pedagogical solutions to specific TESOL classroom situations. Students will demonstrate the practical application of this research by undertaking a TESOL project which culminates in a 12,000-15,000 word research report or teaching proposal. Students have the opportunity to research specific TESOL interests in depth. These include, but are not limited to, generic Applied Linguistics, Task-Based Language Teaching, English as a Foreign Language (EFL), Second Language Acquisition, Second or Other Language Maintenance, English for Academic Purposes (EAP), or discrete elements of Pedagogy.
