Ymchwil
Ar hyn o bryd mae Emily yn addysgu ar BSc Gwyddor Data Poblogaeth, MSc Iechyd y Cyhoedd ac MA Astudiaethau Plentyndod.
Mae ymchwil Emily yn canolbwyntio ar blant oedran ysgol gynradd ac yn archwilio'r berthynas rhwng ffactorau epidemiolegol ac ymddygiadau ffordd o fyw gyda deilliannau addysgol gan ddefnyddio cysylltu data. Mae hi'n gwerthuso ymyriadau mewn ysgolion hefyd ac mae hi wedi cyhoeddi ymchwil gwerthuso ar ddysgu yn yr awyr agored a’r Filltir Ddyddiol. Yn ystod PhD Emily, datblygodd ac ehangodd rwydwaith ysgolion cynradd HAPPEN Cymru yn rhwydwaith cenedlaethol sy'n casglu ac yn rhannu gwybodaeth am ymddygiad iechyd ar lefel ysgol gydag ysgolion.

DEC100 Child Development
This module enables students to gain an appreciation of key issues within developmental science. They will consider critical and current questions relating to child development, including, for example, nature versus nurture, discontinuity versus continuity and active development versus passive development and the holistic nature of development. Classical and contemporary theories will also be explored. Students will consider development across domains from birth to adolescence. Finally, the module considers the relevance of theories of development to current practice within education and early childhood settings.
-
ED-M05 Emotional Health, Mental Health and Wellbeing
This module will focus on emotional health, mental health, physical health and well-being in educational settings. It will critically examine the international research in these areas to explore the evidence base from multiple perspectives and from different contexts. Students will examine factors which impact on emotional health, mental health, physical health and well-being, and will critically evaluate a range of early interventions in relation to the promotion and protection of child / adolescent well-being, whilst also exploring the international evidence concerning the efficacy of a range of preventative measures. The module will enable students to extend, deepen, evaluate and (where appropriate) apply their knowledge of theory and research relating to emotional health, mental health, physical health and well-being to their personal /professional contexts. This module will explore and critically examine research from multiple perspectives and debates in¿the area of¿mental¿health, emotional¿health, physical health¿and well-being across educational contexts. The module is designed to enable students to extend, deepen, evaluate and (where¿appropriate)¿apply their knowledge of theory and research relating to emotional health, mental health, physical health and well-being, as relate¿these to their personal and professional contexts.
-
EDD801 Education for Equity
This module will introduce students to some of the current educational debates around issues of equity, and support students to approach these debates through critical analysis of a wide range of data. Issues to be covered will include the decolonisation of the curriculum, issues pertaining to equity of access to educational opportunities and outcomes, issues of equity and equality in educational research (both in relation to topics researched and in the conduct of research), issues of race, gender, social class and marginalisation in learning. Crucially, the module will encourage students to take a critical perspective on key concepts relevant to both the education policy and practice landscape in Wales and the UK more widely, including the concepts of equality of opportunity, equity and meritocracy.
-
EDN101 What is Teaching and Learning?
This module will introduce students to key factors that are relevant to effective teaching and learning. It will consider evidence for effective professional practice relating to learning environments, communication strategies and behaviour management. Students will explore the various roles of the educator in contemporary educational practice and theories of teaching and learning. Specific aspects influencing effective learning will also be introduced, for example attention, motivation and expectancy effects. Students will be encouraged to reflect on their own educational experiences in relation to effective teaching and learning practice.
-
EDN107 Child Development
This module aims to enable students to gain an appreciation of key issues within developmental science. They will consider critical and current questions relating to development, for example, nature versus nurture, discontinuity versus continuity and active development versus passive development. Classical and contemporary theories will be presented. Students will consider development across domains from birth through to adolescence.
-
EDPM31 Exploring Pedagogy, Curriculum and Assessment in the Primary School
This module develops student teacher¿s understanding of and ability to employ effective strategies for teaching, learning and assessment across the primary age phase. The module will explore how children and adolescents learn, and what factors support and hinder effective learning. Student teachers will also explore the evidence-base around the characteristics of `good¿ teaching and the importance of establishing supportive learning environments. Taught sessions will focus on the application of subject and phase-related knowledge to support an understanding of pedagogy. Student teachers will develop an understanding of the importance of providing a broad and balanced curriculum suitable for meeting the diverse needs of the pupils they teach. Student teachers will examine issues relevant to the wider context of Welsh Government policy on the curriculum and the national frameworks for Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Competence. The module will ensure that students gain an understanding of current legislation, including an understanding of the underpinning four purposes of the curriculum, and Curriculum Cymreig, ESDGC, religious education, Children¿s Rights and the Welsh language. Students will learn about the importance of critical reflection and reflective practice for professional development and school improvement by considering, applying and critiquing reflective models such as Schön and Brookfield. They will apply this critical reflection to their own professional practice, reflecting on their teaching and assessment strategies to ensure they are appropriate in supporting effective learning.
-
PM-274 Practical Epidemiology
This module explores the underlying concepts that are used to evaluate population health. How to design a study, measuring frequency and rate of diseases, how tell what the risk factors are for getting a disease, how to critically appraise research, and understanding the limitations of research including bias, reverse causality and confounding. The module will use the current work with Public Health Wales, Welsh Government and Charities and show how their programmes are evaluated using epidemiology design and analysis. The data used in workshops will come directly from our research working in primary schools, arthritis and with the Growing up in Wales study. This course provides hands on experience and training in understanding and measuring population health, and is delivered by practicing researchers in the National Centre for Population Health and Well-being.
-
PM-374 Child Health
This module aims to provide a critical overview of the epidemiology of common causes of morbidity and mortality in school-aged children and adolescents. It will cover individual conditions, links between physical and mental health, determinants of health with a focus on socio-economic inequalities, public health universal services to improve health. Further, it will cover links to educational outcomes.
-
PM-375 Advanced Epidemiology
This module builds on the teaching from PM-274 Practical Epidemiology, to enable students to understand advanced epidemiology concepts, undertake an analysis (a Hackathon) using these methods, and to be able to write a grant proposal (a PhD proposal) in Epidemiology. The module aims to cover advanced epidemiology analysis techniques including; cohort studies using linked routine data, data driven/machine learning methods, natural experiment design and synthetic controls, case controls studies including propensity score matching, policy evaluation methods and epidemiology in Public Health. The module will include the current work with Public Health Wales, Welsh Government and Charities (Play Wales/Children In Wales) and undertake an analysis (Hackathon) in response to questions from one of our partners (e.g. Public Health Wales). This course advances the hands-on experience in understanding and measuring population health and is taught by active researchers in the National Centre for Population Health and Well-being.
