课程特征 Course Features：
Teaching is supported by a Study Guide, describing activities and readings for preparation and follow up materials to the teaching sessions, as well as assignment details. On-line support is also available for the module through DUO (Durham University On-line). This contains further resources, lecture materials, links to library and journal articles and communication groups to maintain contact with tutors and peers.
Modules are taught in blocks spread across, usually, the first two terms. Some of the teaching is shared with the UK part-time students, whilst other modules are shared with our full-time EdD students. As a result the programme has a diverse student body, comprising colleagues from a variety of different backgrounds, which we believe enriches the student learning experience.
