Welcome / Croeso<br />
Where can I Study? / Ble Alla I Astudio?<br />
Welcome to the Department of Adult Continuing Education<br />
(DACE) where staff are firm advocates of lifelong learning<br />
and committed to providing flexible and appropriate<br />
learning opportunities for adult students.<br />
The BA Part-time Degree Programme in Humanities, History<br />
or English is offered on campus at Singleton Park and in<br />
various community venues in <strong>Swansea</strong>, Neath Port Talbot,<br />
Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire.<br />
The programme is specifically designed for those who choose<br />
to study on a part-time basis because of work, family or other<br />
commitments. Our students come from many different walks<br />
of life and during the last 22 years, over 450 people have<br />
graduated from the programme gaining a qualification that can<br />
aid their career and provide a sense of achievement and selffulfilment.<br />
The flexibility and structure of the degree programme<br />
has enabled them to study and achieve their goals while still<br />
continuing with their busy everyday lives.<br />
Programme Structure<br />
You can study part-time for a degree in Humanities, History or<br />
English. A wide range of courses are available in a variety of<br />
subjects which allow you to tailor your studies to your own needs<br />
and interests.<br />
You can choose two subjects to study each year throughout the<br />
programme and can also mix and match your choice of venues.<br />
The majority of classes are delivered via the traditional face-toface<br />
method.<br />
Classes in Pembrokeshire are often taught via a videoconferenced<br />
link from <strong>Swansea</strong>; an exciting and on-going<br />
development. At all classes, a variety of teaching methods are<br />
used from small seminars to discussion groups and workshops.<br />
Tutor Expertise<br />
At DACE, we have an excellent group of tutors who, in addition<br />
to being experts in their own disciplines, are also committed to the<br />
education of adults and to widening access in general.<br />
They have a fundamental role in enthusing students and it is largely<br />
due to their expertise that students are able to keep on-track, stay<br />
motivated and achieve to their full ability.<br />
Croeso i’r Adran Addysg Barhaus Oedolion lle mae’r staff<br />
yn gefnogwyr brwd dysgu gydol oes, ac wedi ymrwymo<br />
i ddarparu cyfleoedd dysgu hyblyg ac addas i fyfyrwyr<br />
mewn oed.<br />
Cynigir y Radd BA Ran-amser yn y Dyniaethau, Hanes, a<br />
Saesneg ar y campws ym Mharc Singleton ac mewn nifer o<br />
leoliadau cymunedol yn Abertawe, Castell-nedd Port Talbot,<br />
Sir Gaerfyrddin a Sir Benfro.<br />
Mae’r rhaglen wedi’i dylunio’n benodol ar gyfer y rhai sy’n<br />
dewis astudio ar sail rhan amser oherwydd ymrwymiadau<br />
gwaith, ymrwymiadau teuluol, neu ymrwymiadau eraill. Daw<br />
ein myfyrwyr o lawer o wahanol gefndiroedd, ac yn ystod y<br />
22 blynedd diwethaf, mae dros 450 o unigolion wedi graddio<br />
o’r rhaglen, gan ennill cymhwyster a allai fod o gymorth yn<br />
eu gyrfâu, ac a allai hyrwyddo teimlad o gyrhaeddiad a<br />
hunangyflawniad. Mae hyblygrwydd a strwythur y rhaglen radd<br />
wedi’u galluogi i astudio ac i gyflawni eu hamcanion tra bod eu<br />
bywydau prysur yn parhau fel arfer.<br />
Strwythur y Rhaglen<br />
Gellwch astudio am radd ran amser yn y Dyniaethau, Hanes,<br />
neu Saesneg. Mae ystod eang o gyrsiau ar gael mewn<br />
amrywiaeth o bynciau sy’n caniatáu i chi deilwra’ch astudio i’ch<br />
anghenion a’ch diddordebau’ch hunan.<br />
Gallwch ddewis dau bwnc i’w hastudio bob blwyddyn trwy<br />
gydol y rhaglen, a gallwch ddewis a chyfuno lleoliadau i<br />
ddiwallu’ch anghenion.<br />
Cyflwynir y rhan fwyaf o’r cyrsiau trwy’r dull traddodiadol<br />
wyneb yn wyneb. Yn aml, dysgir dosbarthiadau yn Sir Benfro<br />
trwy gyswllt fideo-gynadledda o Abertawe; datblygiad<br />
cyffrous a pharhaus. Defnyddir ystod o ddulliau dysgu yn yr<br />
holl ddosbarthiadau - o seminarau bychain i grwpiau trafod a<br />
gweithdai.<br />
Arbenigedd y Tiwtoriaid<br />
Mae gyda ni grŵp ardderchog o diwtoriaid yn AABO sydd, yn<br />
ogystal â bod yn arbenigwyr yn eu meysydd pwnc eu hunain, wedi<br />
ymrwymo i ddysgu oedolion ac i ehangu mynediad yn gyffredinol.<br />
Mae eu rôl o ran ysbrydoli myfyrwyr yn sylfaenol, a’u harbenigedd<br />
sydd yn gyfrifol, yn bennaf, am sicrhau bod myfyrwyr yn gallu dal<br />
ati, cynnal eu cymhelliad, a chyflawni hyd eithaf eu gallu.<br />

Academic Study Support - Help with your return to learning<br />
At DACE we recognise that adult students come from all walks of life and that<br />
they need to have flexibility in the way that they study.<br />
Whatever your individual situation - whether you are keen to update your writing skills or want to develop<br />
new learning strategies to support your part-time degree studies, we have something to offer you.<br />
New students often require support and encouragement before embarking upon the part-time degree.<br />

and that of your partner and the number of dependents.<br />
• You will qualify for the maximum support if your income is<br />
less than £16,865.00 or if you are in receipt of incomeassessed<br />
benefits (e.g. Housing Benefit, Council Tax Benefit)<br />
• Partial support will be available if your income is over<br />
£16,865 but less than £25,4<strong>35</strong><br />
You may also be able to get extra help on top of the Fee Grant or<br />

Mae’r Llywodraeth wedi cyflwyno pecyn cymorth newydd i<br />

Ni fydd yn rhaid i chi ad-dalu’r cymhorthdal a gewch ar gyfer<br />
unrhyw flwyddyn academaidd y byddwch yn ei chwblhau.<br />
Bydd y swm a gewch yn dibynnu ar eich incwm chi, incwm eich<br />
partner, a faint o ddibynyddion sydd gennych.<br />
• Byddwch yn gymwys i gael y cymorth mwyaf os yw eich<br />
incwm yn is na £16,865.00, neu os ydych yn derbyn budddaliadau<br />
sydd wedi’u hasesu ar sail incwm (e.e. Budd-dal Tai,<br />
Budd-dal Treth Gyngor).<br />
• Fe gewch gymorth rhannol os yw eich incwm dros £16,865<br />
ond yn llai na £25,4<strong>35</strong><br />
Efallai y gallwch gael cymorth ychwanegol hefyd, ar ben y<br />
Grant Ffioedd neu’r Grant Cwrs, os oes oedolion neu blant yn<br />
ddibynnol arnoch yn ariannol. Mae’r cymorth ychwanegol hwn<br />
yn cynnwys:<br />
ychwanegol ar gyfer eu cwrs. Cysylltwch â’r Swyddfa Cyngor<br />

ychwanegol ar gyfer eich cwrs. Nid yw’n dibynnu ar eich<br />
incwm, ac nid oes rhaid ei ad-dalu. Bydd angen i chi gysylltu<br />
â’ch Awdurdod Addysg Lleol am ragor o wybodaeth.<br />
Pwysig<br />

Ffioedd Cyrsiau Rhan Amser a gall y cymorth sydd ar gael o<br />
ffynonellau eraill fod yn gyfyngedig.<br />
Anogir holl fyfyrwyr y radd ran-amser i gwblhau eu<br />
hastudiaethau o fewn chwe blynedd ar ôl cychwyn, oherwydd<br />

Cefnogi adfywio trwy addysg<br />
Opened on the 20th October 1973, the South Wales Miners’<br />
Library has developed as an internationally respected centre<br />
for the research of the historical, cultural, social, educational<br />
and political aspects of the South Wales Coalfield.<br />
Its unique collection, consisting of rare and important books,<br />
pamphlets, banners, posters, oral history recordings and<br />
newspaper articles, attracts visitors from all over the world,<br />
including academic researchers, students, family history<br />
enthusiasts, local historians and the media. The Library has<br />
many touring exhibitions which have generated great interest<br />
in the remarkable history of industrial South Wales.<br />
For the past 40 years, the SWML has been instrumental in<br />
supporting the regeneration work undertaken by DACE in<br />
providing community based education.<br />
From the NUM day release courses which were taught until<br />
the early 1990s, to the pioneering Community <strong>University</strong> of<br />
the Valleys and successful Part-Time Degree scheme, which is<br />
currently offered in community venues across <strong>Swansea</strong>, Neath<br />
Port Talbot, Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, the South<br />
Wales Miners’ Library has worked closely with staff in DACE<br />
to provide innovative and appropriate library and information<br />
services to all.<br />
In 1989, a branch of the South Wales Miners’ Library was<br />
opened at the DOVE Workshop in Banwen offering <strong>University</strong><br />
library and information services in a community setting. It is<br />
an initiative that still flourishes today.<br />
To mark the 40th anniversary of the South Wales Miners’<br />
Library, a commemorative book will be published in October.<br />
The Library will also hold a series of free lectures which will<br />
reflect the history and future aspirations of the Library.<br />

Sharing Our Success<br />
Rhannu Ein Llwyddiant<br />
Learner Awards<br />
Over many years, several Part-time Degree<br />
students have received special recognition for<br />
their outstanding learning achievements. Their<br />
inspirational stories demonstrate their dedication<br />
to their studies.<br />
Such commitment has resulted in students being<br />
the successful recipients of Adult Learner Awards.<br />
We, at DACE, are delighted to share this success<br />
with you. Mark Hall, from Llandybie, who is<br />
soon to graduate with a BA (Honours) Degree in<br />
History, was the successful recipient of two Higher<br />
Education Learner of the Year Awards at the<br />
Neath Port Talbot and Carmarthenshire Learner<br />
Awards 2012. Mark first became a student when<br />
he started a Welsh language course following his<br />
return to Wales in 2005 to care for his mother.<br />
The inspiration and support that he received from<br />
tutors encouraged him to seize the opportunity<br />
to improve his qualifications. Shortly afterwards<br />
Mark enrolled on the Part-time Degree delivered<br />
by DACE. Alongside his degree studies, Mark is<br />
a carer for his wife and had to co-ordinate care to<br />
enable him to attend class.<br />
Congratulating Mark on his achievement, Head of<br />
the Department of Adult Continuing Education at<br />
<strong>Swansea</strong> <strong>University</strong> Professor Colin Trotman said:<br />
“I am delighted that Mark has received recognition<br />
for his studies. He is an inspirational student and<br />
has successfully balanced his carer responsibility<br />
and study load, He is to be congratulated on<br />
gaining these esteemed awards. We are all very<br />
proud of his achievements.”<br />
Gwobrau i Ddysgwyr<br />
Dros y blynyddoedd, mae sawl myfyriwr ar y Radd<br />
Ran Amser wedi derbyn cydnabyddiaeth arbennig<br />
am eu cyraeddiadau dysgu eithriadol. Mae eu<br />
hanesion ysbrydoledig yn dangos eu hymroddiad<br />
i astudio. Gyda’r fath ymroddiad, mae rhai<br />
myfyrwyr wedi ennill Gwobrau Dysgwyr Mewn<br />
Oed. Rydym ni, yn AABO, yn falch o rannu’r<br />
llwyddiant hwn gyda chi.<br />
Mark Hall, o Landybïe, a fydd yn graddio’n fuan<br />
gyda BA (Anrhydedd) mewn Hanes, oedd enillydd<br />
dwy Wobr Dysgwr Addysg Uwch y Flwyddyn yn<br />
Seremoni Gwobrwyo Dysgwyr Castell-nedd Port<br />
Talbot a Sir Gaerfyrddin yn 2012.<br />
Dechreuodd Mark astudio trwy wneud cwrs<br />
Cymraeg pan ddaeth yn ôl i Gymru yn 2005<br />
i ofalu am ei fam. Roedd yr ysbrydoliaeth a’r<br />
gefnogaeth a gafodd gan ei diwtoriaid wedi’i<br />
annog i achub ar y cyfle i wella ei gymwysterau.<br />
Yn fuan wedyn, cofrestrodd Mark ar y Radd<br />
Ran Amser a gyflwynir gan AABO. Yn ogystal<br />
ag astudio am radd, mae Mark yn gofalu am ei<br />
wraig, a bu raid iddo gydlynu gofal amgen er<br />
mwyn gallu mynychu’r dosbarthiadau.<br />
Wrth longyfarch Mark ar ei gyflawniad,<br />
dywedodd yr Athro Colin Trotman, Pennaeth yr<br />
Adran Addysg Barhaus Oedolion ym Mhrifysgol<br />
Abertawe: “Dwi’n hynod o falch bod Mark<br />
wedi’i gydnabod am ei astudio. Mae’n fyfyriwr<br />
ysbrydoledig, ac mae wedi llwyddo i gydbwyso<br />
ei yrfa a’i waith astudio. Dylid llongyfarch iddo<br />
ar ennill y wobr fawreddog hon. Rydym i gyd yn<br />
falch iawn o’i gyflawniadau.”<br />
Graduate Success Story<br />
DACE students come from all walks of life and<br />
have many inspiring stories to tell about their<br />
studies on the Part-time BA Humanities Degree<br />
Programme. Denise Lewis graduated with a First<br />
Class Honours Humanities Degree in 2012.<br />
Denise, from Crynant, left school without any<br />
qualifications. Whilst working in a local factory,<br />
she undertook a range of courses at the Dulais<br />
Opportunities for Voluntary Enterprise (DOVE)<br />
Workshop and Glynneath Training Centre. These<br />
included DACE Pathways courses. Denise always<br />
had a desire to gain a qualification and applied<br />
for the Part-time BA Humanities Degree in 1998<br />
but she was too nervous to attend the interview.<br />
Eight years later and after much encouragement<br />
from DOVE and DACE staff, Denise enrolled on<br />
the Part-time BA Humanities Degree programme.<br />
Denise has worked as a Development Officer<br />
for the Cwmdulais Uchaf Communities First team<br />
based at the DOVE Workshop for over ten years.<br />
She said “Achieving my degree was something<br />
I never thought I could do. The Part-time Degree<br />
programme was a very positive experience and<br />
studying at community venues such as DOVE<br />
gave me the flexibility to study whilst balancing<br />
my work and family life. I thoroughly enjoyed my<br />
experience of the Part-time Degree, the lecturers<br />
and lectures were inspirational. I studied the<br />
degree for personal development reasons and I<br />
would like to continue learning, so I might consider<br />
taking a Masters degree in the future. I would like<br />
to thank my family, colleagues, friends and staff<br />
at the South Wales Miners’ Library and DACE,<br />
who patiently supported and encouraged me<br />
throughout my studies and played a huge part in<br />
helping me achieve my degree.”<br />
Llwyddiant Graddedig<br />
Mae myfyrwyr AABO yn dod o gefndiroedd amrywiol<br />
iawn, ac mae ganddynt sawl stori ysbrydoledig am<br />
eu hastudio ar y Rhaglen Radd BA Ran Amser yn y<br />
Dyniaethau. Graddiodd Denise Lewis gyda Gradd<br />
Anrhydedd Dosbarth Cyntaf yn y Dyniaethau yn<br />
2012.<br />
Roedd Denise, o Greunant, wedi gadael yr ysgol heb<br />
unrhyw gymwysterau. Tra’r oedd yn gweithio mewn<br />
ffatri leol, astudiodd nifer o gyrsiau yng ngweithdy<br />
Cyfleoedd Menter Wirfoddol Dulais (DOVE) ac yng<br />
Nghanolfan Hyfforddi Glyn-nedd. Roedd y rhain yn<br />
cynnwys cyrsiau Llwybr AABO. Roedd Denise wastad<br />
wedi bod ag awydd ennill cymhwyster, ac ymgeisiodd<br />
am y Radd BA Ran Amser yn y Dyniaethau ym 1998,<br />
ond roedd yn rhy ofnus i ddod i’r cyfweliad. Wyth<br />
mlynedd yn hwyrach, a chyda llawer o anogaeth<br />
oddi wrth staff y Gweithdy ac AABO, cofrestrodd<br />
Denise ar y Rhaglen Radd BA yn y Dyniaethau. Mae<br />
Denise wedi gweithio’n Swyddog Datblygu gyda thîm<br />
Cymunedau’n Gyntaf Cwmdulais Uchaf yn y Gweithdy<br />
ers dros ddeng mlynedd. Dywedodd, “Roedd ennill<br />
gradd yn rhywbeth nad oeddwn erioed wedi credu y<br />
gallwn ei wneud. Roedd y Rhaglen Radd Ran Amser<br />
yn brofiad cadarnhaol iawn, ac roedd astudio mewn<br />
lleoliadau cymunedol megis y Gweithdy yn caniatáu’r<br />
hyblygrwydd i astudio tra roedd fy ngwaith a fy<br />
mywyd teuluol yn parhau. Roeddwn i wedi mwynhau<br />
astudio’r Radd Ran Amser yn fawr iawn. Roedd y<br />
darlithwyr a’r darlithoedd yn ysbrydoledig. Astudiais<br />
y radd am resymau datblygiad personol, a hoffwn<br />
barhau i ddysgu, felly mae’n bosibl y byddaf yn<br />
ystyried gwneud gradd Meistr yn y dyfodol. Hoffwn<br />
ddiolch i fy nheulu, fy nghydweithwyr, fy ffrindiau, a<br />
staff Llyfrgell Glowyr De Cymru ac AABO, oedd wedi<br />
fy nghefnogi’n amyneddgar, a f’annog trwy gydol<br />
fy astudio. Chwaraeon nhw ran fawr wrth fy helpu i<br />
ennill fy ngradd.”<br />
Tutor Profile<br />
<strong>Swansea</strong> Poet, Peter Thabit Jones, began teaching at DACE 20<br />
years ago and has been a tutor for the Part-time Humanities Degree<br />
since 2003. Peter has taught on a wide range of community based<br />
courses. He has written a number of Part-time degree English<br />
Literature modules such as ‘Singing light: The Poetry and Prose<br />
of Dylan Thomas’ and ‘Wonderland and Beyond: Ten Children’s<br />
Writers’.<br />
Peter is an award-winning poet and playwright, who has numerous<br />
publications to his name. He is also the founder and Editor of ‘The<br />
Seventh Quarry’, a poetry magazine published in <strong>Swansea</strong>. During<br />
March 2008, Peter toured America for six weeks with the late<br />
Aeronwy Thomas, poet and daughter of Dylan Thomas, where he<br />
participated in many poetry readings and workshops at Universities<br />
and Poetry Centres from New York to California. In May of that year,<br />
Peter and Aeronwy were commissioned by the Welsh Assembly<br />
Government in New York to write the first-ever ‘Dylan Thomas<br />
Walking Tour of Greenwich Village, New York’. The Tour is currently<br />
available as a guided tour via New York Fun Tours and will be<br />

“During my teaching on the programme I have seen many students<br />
getting used to the commitment of returning to the classroom,<br />
to the shining achievement of knowing they have at<br />
last achieved their degree. I am full of<br />
admiration for the way that students<br />
balance their commitments, be it family,<br />
work, health or other, with their studies.<br />
Over the years I have taught people<br />
who need extra support during their<br />
studies because of a disability and I<br />
am always amazed by their diligence.<br />
Many of our students become good<br />
friends and create a network beyond<br />
the classroom and that is so rewarding<br />
to see. They are all in the same boat<br />
sailing towards the dream of a personal<br />
degree”.<br />

analyses how this was accomplished.<br />

The aim of this course is to introduce students to Sociology as<br />
an academic area. It will attempt to show how Sociology tries to<br />
understand the social world and people as social beings. It will<br />
ask, and try to answer, such questions as how does society work,<br />
how do we explain socio-economic inequality, are human beings<br />
solely formed by genetic inheritance or by socialisation. Amongst<br />

cultural trends.<br />

the first module of this course, we explore girls’ and boys’<br />
experiences of schooling. We begin by looking at the historical<br />
differences between boys’ and girls’ schooling. We look at<br />
theories of gender difference, feminist perspectives and theories<br />
of masculinities. We look at research focusing on both boys’ and<br />
girls’ experiences of schooling. This is followed by an exploration<br />
of the educational experiences of girls and boys from ethnic<br />
minorities. Questions raised include ‘how important is gender<br />
in structuring pupils’ experiences of schooling?’ and ‘what is the<br />
relationship between gender, class and ethnicity?’<br />

being a person require self awareness. Are we psychologically<br />

mind.<br />
