PSYC2027 2026-27
Current issues in Clinical Psychology
The module will provide an introduction to adult psychopathology, to present the psychological and biological models that have been developed to explain a variety of psychological disorders, and to examine both the empirical foundation of these models and the treatments based upon them such as cognitive behavioural therapy.
Each session will focus on a new disorder and will typically discuss: i) diagnosis and classification; ii) epidemiology; iii) theoretical approaches to understanding the aetiology and maintenance of the disorder(s) (with particular reference to psychological models); iv) empirical evaluations of basic processes proposed by theoretical models; and v) theory-driven treatments and their efficacy.
While the majority of the sessions will be given by the module convenor, there will be guest lectures from clinical psychologists working in the NHS, and experts on particular topics (e.g. anxiety, eating disorders, bipolar). -

LING6013 2026-27
Current Issues in Language Teaching Methodology
After a brief historical overview of the origins and development of English language teaching, we study current academic discussions about the need to adapt language teaching methodologies to different environments (the so-called ‘post-method condition’). Action research and exploratory practice will be introduced as a way to investigate, and find solutions to, issues that arise in specific classrooms. Students will then acquire a detailed overview of current issues in ML teaching methodology such as needs analysis, new trends in designing teaching materials, including genre-based teaching (both traditional and digital), the use of corpora for language teaching, English for Specific Purposes, English for Academics Purposes, Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and technology enhanced language learning. -
