The course is wide-ranging in content, covering aspects of language study as diverse as language change over time to the acquisition of children?s speech. Whilst the majority of the course is exam-focused, there is also the opportunity for independent, investigative research. The non-exam assessment also includes a creative writing element. The course incorporates a variety of assessment styles, such as data analysis, discursive essays, directed writing, original writing and research-based investigative writing. This allows students to develop a wide range of skills, which include critical reading, data analysis, evaluation, the ability to develop and sustain arguments, and a range of different writing skills that are invaluable for both further study and future employment. The course will equip students with skills that are useful in the workplace, such as data analysis and report writing.
