Using Participatory Image Based Research to Inform Teaching and Learning about Inclusion in Education
Images can play an important role in developing skills in critical reflection, both in schools and universities. Working with school students to take their own photographs as a way of exploring their school and its culture has great potential as an EBL approach. As such, University students in Education stand to gain invaluable skills in learning and engaging with this participatory methodology. This project will engage with six LEAs in the North-West to develop a 15 credit course unit which will also be available as an online resource. Aspects of the unit will be piloted in the second semester with PGCE students.

Manchester Access Programme: EBL Masterclasses
This project aims to engage non-traditional FE students with the process of enquiry-based learning through a series of masterclasses. The masterclasses will focus on the theme of sustainability and will touch on various curriculum areas. The masterclasses will be facilitated by trained University of Manchester students and will take place in Spring 2006. Year 12 students participating in the masterclasses are involved in a wider series of activities aimed to support and encourage their application to The University of Manchester. Involvement with the Centre for Excellence in Enquiry-Based Learning at a pre-University level will benefit both the institution and the students by better preparing them for the alternative learning and teaching methods practiced at the University.
