Bachelor of Arts in Educational Anthropology and Christian Studies
An undergraduate degree in education, taught online and at a pace of the student's own setting.
The Study of How People Learn, and How to Teach Them
The degree covers the breadth of modern education: pedagogy, educational psychology, curriculum design, assessment, inclusive practice, literacy, educational technology, leadership and research methods. It is intended for students who will work with learners, whether in a school, a training role, a community organization or a church.
Study proceeds through twenty sequenced modules, arranged so that each builds on what precedes it. Core ideas such as assessment, differentiation and inclusive practice appear first in outline, return with greater depth, and are treated in full in the later modules. Students meet important concepts more than once, at increasing levels of difficulty.
Every module is produced in all three study formats, and students choose the methods by which they are assessed. The program concludes with an extended piece of research or applied work in an area of the student's own choosing.
