What will I learn?

The MEd Creative Education at the RCA brings together people, ideas and disciplines in a community that experiments with learning as much as teaching, helping you design and deliver education in formal and informal contexts. You engage with themes such as curriculum design, the pedagogies of making, and education for change reflecting on your own values, perspectives and experiences as a creative educator. Through action research and independent study, you develop a research project that puts your pedagogical principles into practice, gaining confidence in translating theory into real-world educational design.
