Intended Learning Outcomes that needs to be met:
1. Critically analyse the design and outcomes of recent and relevant academic research relating to Inclusion
2. Autonomously design and manage small scale research exploring a key question relating to chosen aspect
3. Demonstrate a systematic and critical approach to the acquisition and understanding of data appropriate to the question
4. Confidently and coherently present findings in a coherent and academically acceptable way.
