Hide-It is important to check your e-mail regularly during the semester for notices about classes or possible cancellation or rescheduling of classes.
All modules are first year modules and are each worth 5 ECTS credits (if taken for credit).
Up to three places are available on each module (subject to capacity). No pre-requisites have been specified for the available modules.
Although credits are given where applicable, and a statement of results will be issued, the courses do not lead to an award from Marino Institute of Education or its accrediting University, Trinity College Dublin, the University of Dublin.
Because some modules are elective, the numbers may be insufficient for them to run in a particular semester. These modules are designated with a *.
Applicants may enroll in up to four modules per semester

Hide-Ways of Attending Modules
Attending a module for credit is a way to achieve credits. However, at this time, neither the institute nor its accrediting university offers an award on completion of a set of credits. However, taking the modules offers a taster for what it might be like to enrol full time on a college course to study aspects of education. The modules currently available for credit are in the areas of Education Studies and Early Childhood Education.
You may prefer not to complete module assessments but to complete modules because you are interested in the topic. This is called taking a module to Audit only.

Hide-ES8101 Adult Education (excluding Educational Placement)
Overview
The rationale of this course is to facilitate students understanding of principles and practices associated with adult learning, both inside and outside of the classroom. Students will learn to compare and contrast learning styles in adulthood and childhood from a theoretical (andragogy vs pedagogy) and practical perspective. They will also explore methodologies to create positive, nurturing educational environments for adult learners, with a specific focus on differentiating instruction for specific populations (e. g. young, middle-aged, elderly). Students will also have the opportunity to explore implications for training in the workplace, issues for public policy in relation to life-long learning, and the effects of diversity and globalisation.
