Guest Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 HI I did my degree in this, i graduated in 2005. It covered loads, but of the top of my head Year one Multiprofessional perspectives one Rights of the child Exploring families child pscyhology childhood and youth inquiry one Year two Multiprofessional perspectives two Legal issues (or something like that!) Health and well~being schooling and youth Childhood and youth inquiry two play (a whole unit on play, in western society and others, theorists etc) child psychology Year three philosophy Childhood and youth inquiry three optional unit ( i chose health) dissertation Multiprofessional perspectives three Im sure there are a few units i have missed off but im sure you get the general jist Its a multiprofessional degree, which as you can see covers lots, up to age 18. We had to do normally one essay (2,500 words) for each unit and used to do presentations for a few as well, some of these were individual and would be tape recorded, others were group work. We had to carry out some small scale research projects which helped to prepare us if we were doing research for our dissertation. there was two exams in the final year, and a class test in the second year. I studied at crewe and Alsager, but i think the content of the degree is similar wherever you study. hope this helps Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
