PEEP Reports, MAs & PhDs

MA practicum reports

In September 2015, English was introduced into primary education in grade 3 (age 8 years old). Since then a three semester MA in Teaching Primary English has been offered in higher education institutions with an integrated practicum. In most cases, this practicum includes a piece of small-scale teacher research. The practicum reports provide a description of this research. Since 2017 they have been open access in the institutional repositories.

Before September 2015 a number of higher education institutions ran MA courses which afforded opportunities for research into primary English. Many of these research projects investigated English as an extracurricular or curricular enrichment activity.
