(iii) With immediate effect 1 In Examination Regulations, 2008, p. 877, delete ll , and substitute: 1. Transfer of Status All research students will be admitted to the status of Probationer Research Student in the first instance. The status of Probationer Research Student may be held for a maximum of six terms. Probationer Research Students should normally apply to transfer status to M.Sc by Research or D.Phil status before the end of the fourth full-term from admission, subject to the further guidance below. Cases to defer applications for the transfer of status must be made by the candidate s supervisor to the departmental Director of Graduate Studies by the end of the fourth full-term after admission. Approval will only be granted in exceptional circumstances. In the Biological Sciences (the Departments of Plant Sciences and Zoology), candidates should apply to transfer from the status of Probationer Research Student by the end of the fourth full-term after admission as a research student. In the Mathematical Sciences (the Computing Laboratory, and the Departments of Mathematics and Statistics), students in Category A (those who have had no previous experience of research work) should apply to transfer from the status of Probationer Research Student between the second and fourth full-term after admission as a research student. Students with no previous experience of research work

4 858 Oxford University Gazette Supplement (1) to No March 2009 are advised to apply in the third full-term after admission. Students in Category B (those who have had previous experience of research work who may have completed a taught master s course) should apply to transfer immediately after admission to Probationer Research Student status. In the Physical Sciences (the Departments of Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Engineering Science, Materials and Physics), candidates should apply to transfer from the status of Probationer Research Student in the third or fourth full-term after admission as a research student. Doctoral Training Centre Programmes The regulations applying to research students following Doctoral Training Centre Programmes are set out in section 7. Advice on the timing of transfer of status in each department will be provided by the departmental Director of Graduate Studies. Applications to transfer status should be considered by a minimum of two assessors on behalf of the Board of the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Division, one of whom may be the student s academic advisor, but neither of whom should normally be the student s supervisor or a member of his/her supervisory team. Each department has its own assessment procedures, which should include as a minimum the following four components: (i) completion of the appropriate graduate studies application forms to be submitted to the Divisional Graduate Studies Office, 9 Parks Road; (ii) submission of written work by the student. For example: a progress report; a literature review; any required course work; a plan for the development of the student s research; any published papers. Each department will set out its own requirements in this area; (iii) an interview between the student and his/her assessors. The process of assessment must always include an interview with the candidate if the assessors cannot recommend transfer to D.Phil status; (iv) the student should have made a brief presentation or talk whilst a Probationer Research Student. This need not be part of the transfer interview. A report will be written to provide feedback to the student, their supervisor, and college. The report will include an assessment of the viability and suitability of the proposed research, and of its completion on a reasonable timescale. A candidate whose first application for transfer to D.Phil status is not approved, shall be permitted to make one further application, and shall be granted an extension of time for one term if this is necessary for the purposes of making the application. A candidate who is transferred to M.Sc by Research status, rather than to D.Phil status, may have one further opportunity to apply to transfer to D.Phil status, subject to (a) that a sufficient period of time has elapsed from the original transfer attempt to allow for the possibility of significant development; and (b) the candidate s supervisor supports a further application. These procedures are also set out in the Division s Graduate Studies Handbook. 2. Confirmation of Status Confirmation of status for D.Phil students must take place no later than nine terms after admission to graduate status, with the exception of students following Doctoral Training Centre Programmes. Students are advised to apply for their first attempt at confirmation of D.Phil status by the end of the eighth full-term after admission as a graduate research student. Doctoral Training Centre Programmes The regulations applying to research students following Doctoral Training Centre Programmes are set out in section 7. Students are encouraged very strongly to apply for confirmation of status at least six twelve months before they expect to submit their thesis for examination to make this process a constructive part of the development of the student s research. The application for confirmation of status must be made and approved before requesting the formal appointment of examiners. The requirements for confirmation of status may vary for each department within the following framework: (i) completion of the appropriate graduate studies application forms to be submitted to the Divisional Graduate Studies Office, 9 Parks Road. The candidate and their supervisor are required to provide a clear indication of progress to date, and the timetable for submission of the thesis; (ii) all applications must be reviewed by one or more assessors, one of whom may be the departmental Director of Graduate Studies. If there is only one assessor this should not be the candidate s supervisor; (iii) the candidate should produce a brief written report about their research achievements to date. The specific requirements will be set out by the department, for example a publication(s) or draft chapter(s) from the candidate s thesis, a plan and the timetable for submission of the thesis; (iv) the assessor(s) may request to interview the candidate, and the candidate may request to have an interview with the assessor(s). The process of assessment must always include an interview with the candidate if the assessor(s) are unable to recommend confirmation of D.Phil status. The assessor(s) will write a brief report to provide feedback to the candidate, the supervisor, and college. The report will include an assessment of progress and submission of the thesis within the planned timescale. A candidate whose first application for confirmation of status is not approved, shall be permitted to make one further application, normally within one term of the original application, and shall be granted an extension of time for one term if this is necessary for the purposes of making the application. If a candidate s application for confirmation of status is unsuccessful, the board may approve a transfer from D.Phil to M.Sc by Research status. Cases to defer applications for the confirmation of status must be made by the candidate s supervisor to the departmental Director of Graduate Studies by the end of the ninth full-term after admission. Approval will only be granted in exceptional circumstances. Students may apply to defer confirmation of status for a maximum of three terms. The Director of Graduate Studies in each department may decide how many terms, up to the maximum, a candidate may be allowed to defer. These procedures are also set out in the Division s Graduate Studies Handbook.

(c) M.Phil in Development Studies In Examination Regulations, 2008, p. 509, after l. 9 insert: (p) Children, Youth and Development This course explores the connection between recent sociological approaches to the study of childhood, on one hand, and development studies, on the other: grounding discussion in relation to the practices and discourses of childfocused development. Starting with a critical examination of the ways that young people have conventionally been conceptualized and researched, the course engages particularly with a political-economy perspective on the construction of childhood / youth and the reproduction of childhood poverty. Attention is paid to the perpetuation of inequalities amongst young people along lines of gender, class, caste, ethnicity and rural : urban residence. The course also explores how a focus on children and youth may offer an alternative insight into the values and practices of international development. Specific themes considered include education, work/labour, intergenerational relations, social transition, and rights-based and participatory approaches to development. (q) The political economy of the Middle East and North Africa This course introduces the political economy of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) using a multidisciplinary approach. It will engage students with the main theoretical and empirical debates on the subject and will cover a range of topics, including a brief economic history of the region; economic growth and fluctuations; the political economy of oil; economic adjustment and reform; state-business relationship in the Middle East; key issues around food, agriculture and water; poverty and human development; labour markets in MENA.

Candidates for the M.Sc in Learning and Teaching may only be admitted to the course if they are graduates who have been awarded Qualified Teacher Status in the United Kingdom, or an equivalent overseas award recognised by the Departmental Board. They must also be employed in a teaching post within a school or other educational 2. Every candidate must follow for at least three and at most nine terms a part-time course of instruction in Learning and Teaching 3. The course will consist of four optional programmes of study and a research and development project. The examination shall be in three parts as follows: Part 1 will be examined by two coursework assignments as described in clause 4 below. Part II will be examined by one coursework assignment as described in clause 5 below. Part III will be examined by a research and development project report as described in clause 6 below. Those candidates who meet the criteria set out in clause 7 below will only be required to undertake two optional programmes of study (rather than four) and they will not be required to undertake Part I of the examination. 4. Part I of the M.Sc Learning and Teaching shall be examined by means of two assignments relating to the content of Options 1 and 2, the first reporting on an investigation into pupils perspectives used to inform subsequent planning and teaching, and the second, a report of a smallscale action research in the context of the candidate s own professional practice. Each assignment must be between 4000 and 5000 words in length, or their equivalent. Two printed copies of each assignment and one electronic copy (in a software format available in the department) must be delivered to the M.Sc examiners, c/o Department of Education, 15 Norham Gardens, Oxford OX2 6PY. The deadline for submission of the assignments will be noon on the first Friday of September of the candidate s first year as a parttime student on the course. 5. Part II of the M.Sc Learning and Teaching shall be examined by means of one coursework assignment relating to the content of the third and fourth options studied by the candidate. The assignment must include both a critical literature review of research and a report of a piece of empirical research designed to elicit and analyse pupils perspectives (Candidates may choose, in consultation with their supervisors, whether the assignment should be presented as a single piece of work, drawing explicitly on learning from the two options, or as or two smaller scale pieces each carried out within different options but linked by a reflective introduction that brings the two studies together within the candidate s own practice or professional learning.) The assignment must be between 8,000 and 10,000 words in length, or their equivalent. Two printed copies of the assignment and one electronic copy (in a software format available in the department) must be delivered to the M.Sc examiners, c/o Department of Education, 15 Norham Gardens, Oxford OX2 6PY. The deadline for submission of the assignment will be noon on the first Friday of September of the candidate s second year on the course. 6. Part III of the M.Sc Learning and Teaching shall be examined through a research and development project report, which presents a systematic account of a substantial practitioner research enquiry, focused on the design and implementation of a specific innovation in teaching and learning with a strong emphasis on the choice of appropriate criteria, and relevant evidence for evaluating its impact. The research and development work must involve a significant degree of collaboration with other adults, either engaging others in research; or enabling others to learn from research findings within the candidate s own school or educational setting. The research and development project report must be between 15,000 and 20,000 words in length, or their equivalent. Three printed copies of the project report and one electronic copy (in a software format available in the department) must be delivered to the M.Sc examiners, c/o Department of Education, 15 Norham Gardens, Oxford OX2 6PY, no later than noon on the first Friday in September of the candidate s third year on the course.

The hard bound copy of the research and development project report of each candidate who passes the examination will be retained by the Department of Education for deposit in the departmental library. 7. Those candidates who meet any of the following criteria will only be required to undertake two optional programmes of study (rather than four). Such candidates will also be exempt from Part I of the examination and will only be required to undertake Parts II and III. In such cases the assignment for Part II should relate to the content of the first and second options studied by each candidate. (a) Those candidates who have, since October 2007, successfully completed the course leading to the award of a Postgraduate Certificate in Education at the University of Oxford (i.e. the Oxford Postgraduate Certificate in Education examined at Master s level). (b) Those candidates who have successfully completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Education at another university, assessed at Master s level and including an award equivalent to at least one third of a full Master s degree. (c) Those candidates who have successfully completed the course leading to a Postgraduate Diploma in Educational Studies from the University of Oxford. 8. Candidates who fail to satisfy the examiners in an assignment or in the research and development project may be permitted to resubmit the assignment or project report on one occasion only. In each case the deadline for resubmission is normally the standard submission deadline for the following year. 9. Candidates who fail an assignment within either Part I or Part II of the examination will not normally be permitted to embark on the next year s programme of study within the M.Sc Learning and Teaching until they have successfully resubmitted their assignment. 10. The award of Distinction within the M.Sc Learning and Teaching is normally reserved for those candidates who receive distinction marks for both the assignment submit-

Candidates may also be examined orally on their final research and development project. 12. Candidates who successfully complete Part I of the M.Sc Learning and Teaching, and who choose not to continue with their programme of study may be awarded a Postgraduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching. 13. Candidates who successfully complete Parts I and II of the M.Sc Learning and Teaching (or who are exempt from Part I and successfully complete Part II) and who choose not to continue with their programme of study may be awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Learning and Teaching. Schedule Options 1. Learners and learning Theories of mind and learning Critical analysis of the most influential theories about learning styles and strategies Understanding differences in learning, including special educational needs Students perspectives: young people s perspectives on learning, teaching, the curriculum and schooling The diverse purposes and forms of assessment, the nature of progression within subject disciplines, and the use of assessment data with students Consulting pupils about their learning: critical analysis of research claims and other moral and pragmatic justifications for attending to the student voice ; practical strategies for eliciting students views 2. Responsive Teaching Competing definitions of personalised learning and pedagogical solutions intended to address perceived differences among students Exploration and critique of approaches to transforming learning capacity Examination of the role and nature of authority in the classroom The role of language and classroom talk in relation to learning Curriculum design and development the tensions between an entitlement curriculum and responsiveness to students diverse needs and interests New technologies and their integration into classroom practice as learning tools: exploration and critique of the role of e-learning 3.

Professional Learning: Communities and Networks Mentoring and coaching Intra/inter-professional collaboration Roles of parents and carers as co-educators Subject departments as learning communities 5. Mathematics Education Principles of mathematics teaching: The nature of mathematics and mathematics education Key research issues in mathematics teaching Understanding mathematics models and frameworks of understanding and their relationship to curriculum and assessment models Theories of learning mathematics Variation in teaching, learning, interpretation of policy and task design. Design of teaching and learning in mathematics: Histories of curriculum development Implications of cognitive and neural science for practice and research in mathematics education Critical analysis of approaches to design Elements of mathematics lessons Effectively combining content, task, examples, questioning, mathematical activity with students ideas. 6. Science Education This follows a similar framework to that outlined for mathematics education with particular emphasis on the nature of scientific knowledge, scientific learning and critical exploration of the underlying rationale and implications of current curriculum reform. The research and development project The focus of the final project is rooted in each student s professional practice in school. It includes a collaborative dimension requiring students either to engage colleagues (such as teachers or teaching assistants) or other stakeholders (such as parents) in the research process, or to develop strategies for disseminating the findings of their research in ways that will enable others to engage in further development work. Core teaching for the project will therefore include two strands: 1. The design and conduct of school-based practitioner research The range of methods appropriate to a variety of types of school-based practitioner research and the ethical considerations guiding their use Principles for establishing a worthwhile focus and elaborating appropriate criteria for evaluation of educational innovations Statistical and qualitative data analysis, including the use of appropriate software packages such as SPSS, NVivo 2. Collaboration and leadership in educational innovation Developing expansive learning environments and a culture of enquiry Effective dissemination of research findings for practitioners Leading professional learning As part of the work for their research and development project students will be expected to contribute to an
