    :)Hi i would really appreciate if someone could help me. I rang the office in Trinity but the lady can not get back to me until next week....anyway i am a primary school teacher with 4 years experience. I have recently lost my job so my question is do you have to be teaching too to carry out case studies, projects etc?. I was looking at the Masters on Co-operative learning and some of the course content regarding organising a CL group etc. So what do teachers do if they want to just do a masters and are not in the classroom?!. I am also interested in the masters on positive behaviour management. What is the story with implementing a peer mediation programme in your school. Does this have to be done before the masters is completed or just for future reference. I could imagine even if i got a maternity leave cover during teh course of my masters and going in all guns blazing implementing peer programmes etc what reaction i would get!. I would love to hear your views on the masters programmes and what you found interesting...is there alot of discussing in groups and presentations in the taught masters. I love teaching but don't know is i would have the confidence to get up in front of a whole class of peers. In this respect, i understand people will probably say then don't do a masters if you can't hack it!!. What are the hours like for someone commuting?. If i do get work around my home area in Laois, it will mean commuting from Portlaoise. I had a look at the timetable from last year and most of face to face lectures are on a Sat. Am i mad to do a masters in this day and age when i could get a job anyway based on my qualifications and experience. I know the extra allowance would not be a major deciding factor but it annoys me to think that after two years of hard work , that some increment or contribution would not be there. I would be doing it solely for personal development...;)
