To understand the present, we must understand the past. History allows students to gain a richer understanding of the world we live in and gives context to some of the major events of our current affairs and society. Our course is designed not only to enhance students understanding of modern day society but to equip them with essential skills for their academic and future careers. Students will be taught the art of argument and debate and how to use evidence to fully substantiate their theories. Much time is spent on developing research skills, whether it is finding out about speed reading techniques, using the internet effectively or how to present findings. key skills which are sought by many of the top universities and future employers. Students are taught using a wide variety of methods including discussion and debate, presentations, ICT and video. There is an emphasis on using information critically rather than accepting things at face value. There is a strong focus on communication skills: by the end of the course, students will be able to express themselves clearly on paper and verbally.
