Mae’r radd atodol BA Addysg Gynhwysol yn rhaglen un flwyddyn sydd wedi ei chreu ar gyfer y rhai sydd wedi cwblhau’r Radd Sylfaen mewn Addysg Gynhwysol. 

Mae’r radd hon wedi’i hanelu at unigolion sydd eisoes yn gweithio neu’n gwirfoddoli fel Cynorthwywyr Addysgu (TAs), Cynorthwywyr Cymorth Dysgu (LSAs) neu rolau eraill mewn amgylcheddau addysg a dysgu. Mae’r cwrs yn canolbwyntio ar gysylltu profiadau dysgu yn y byd go iawn â gwybodaeth ddyfnach am theori, polisi ac arfer addysgol.

Mae’r rhaglen yn cynnig strwythur dysgu hyblyg, gan ei gwneud yn hylaw ar gyfer myfyrwyr sy’n gweithio neu sydd ag ymrwymiadau eraill. Mae gan fyfyrwyr hefyd yr opsiwn i gyflwyno aseiniadau yn Gymraeg neu Saesneg, gan gefnogi dwyieithrwydd a chynwysoldeb.

Mae’r radd BA hon yn adeiladu ar y wybodaeth a’r sgiliau o’r Radd Sylfaen, gan ganolbwyntio ar gymhlethdodau addysg yr 21ain ganrif. Bydd myfyrwyr yn gwella eu sgiliau ysgrifennu academaidd, cyfathrebu a meddwl beirniadol o fewn amgylchedd dysgu digidol. Mae’r cwrs yn cynnwys arferion addysgol cyfredol ac yn archwilio’r dibenion a’r gwerthoedd sy’n llunio addysg heddiw, gan annog myfyrwyr i fyfyrio’n feirniadol ar eu rolau yn y sector.

Ffocws cryf y rhaglen hon yw cysylltu theori â dysgu ymarferol, yn y gwaith. Bydd myfyrwyr yn dyfnhau eu dealltwriaeth o’r berthynas rhwng theori ystafell ddosbarth a pholisi addysgol wrth ddysgu sut i ddefnyddio’r cysyniadau hyn yn uniongyrchol yn y gweithle. Mae’r dull hwn yn paratoi myfyrwyr i fod yn hyblyg ac ymatebol mewn tirwedd addysgol sy’n newid yn gyflym.

Yn unol â Phum Safon Broffesiynol Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer Cynorthwywyr Addysgu—Addysgeg, Dysgu Proffesiynol, Arloesi, Arweinyddiaeth a Chydweithio—mae’r rhaglen yn annog myfyrwyr i gymryd rhan weithredol yn eu twf proffesiynol eu hunain. Mae’r cwrs hwn yn datblygu sgiliau sy’n uniongyrchol berthnasol i anghenion addysgol cyfredol, yng Nghymru ac yn fyd-eang, gan gefnogi dilyniant gyrfa gyda llwybrau posibl i astudiaethau pellach, megis TAR neu MA mewn addysg.

The BA Inclusive Education top-up degree is a one-year programme created for those who have completed the Foundation Degree in Inclusive Education.

The programme offers a flexible learning structure, making it manageable for students who work or have other commitments. Students also have the option to submit assignments in Welsh or English, supporting bilingualism and inclusivity.

This BA degree builds on the knowledge and skills from the Foundation Degree, with a focus on the complexities of 21st-century education. Students will enhance their academic writing, communication, and critical thinking skills within a digital learning environment. The course covers current educational practices and explores the purposes and values that shape education today, encouraging students to reflect critically on their roles within the sector.

A strong focus of this programme is linking theory with practical, on-the-job learning. Students will deepen their understanding of the relationship between classroom theory and educational policy while learning to apply these concepts directly in the workplace. This approach prepares students to be adaptable and responsive in a rapidly changing educational landscape.

Aligned with the Welsh Government’s five Professional Standards for Teaching Assistants—Pedagogy, Professional Learning, Innovation, Leadership, and Collaboration—the programme encourages students to actively engage in their own professional growth. This course develops skills that are directly relevant to current educational needs, both in Wales and globally, supporting career progression with potential routes into further studies, such as a PGCE or MA in Education.

Students are encouraged to develop transferable academic skills and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively. By the end of the programme, students will be prepared to make meaningful contributions within the classroom or wider community.

Mae adeiladau hanesyddol, henebion a thirweddau i gyd yn chwarae rhan yn yr archwiliad hwn, gan eich helpu i ddeall y cyd-destun mwy y crëwyd yr arteffactau hyn ynddo. Drwy astudio’r ffordd roedd pobl yn defnyddio’r tir, sut yr oeddent yn addasu i newid amgylcheddol, a sut  y dylanwadodd eu credoau ar eu gweithredoedd, byddwch yn datblygu darlun mwy cyflawn o hanes dynol.

Mae’r rhaglen hon hefyd yn archwilio rôl technoleg mewn archaeoleg. Byddwch yn dysgu am dechnoleg fodern, gan gynnwys defnyddio cymwysiadau digidol, DNA hynafol, a thechnegau labordy uwch i helpu i astudio arteffactau a deall cymdeithasau hynafol yn well. Mae’r offer hwn yn hanfodol er mwyn datguddio mewnwelediadau newydd i esblygiad y corff dynol a datblygiad diwylliannol cymunedau’r gorffennol.

Yn ogystal â’r dysgu arferol ymarferol, byddwch yn ymgysylltu â’r cwestiynau damcaniaethol a moesegol sy’n siapio astudio’r gorffennol. Mae materion fel treftadaeth, cynrychiolaeth ac effaith technoleg ar ymchwil archeolegol yn feysydd trafod hanfodol. Byddwch yn dysgu meddwl yn feirniadol ac archwilio’r cwestiynau hyn trwy ymagweddau rhyngddisgyblaethol ac astudio hanes cynhanesyddol i hanes modern.

Ochr yn ochr ag Archaeoleg, mae’r radd hon hefyd yn cynnig archwiliad trylwyr o Hanes, o hanes hynafol i hanes byd-eang. Ar y cwrs, byddwch yn dysgu sut i ymgysylltu’n feirniadol ag ystod eang o naratifau hanesyddol, o hanes gwleidyddol i hanes diwylliannol a hanes cymdeithasol. Drwy archwilio ffynonellau gwreiddiol a thystiolaeth hanesyddiaethol, byddwch yn dysgu sut i ddadansoddi digwyddiadau’r gorffennol a llunio dehongliadau seiliedig ar dystiolaeth. Byddwch hefyd yn ennill sgiliau cyfathrebu gwerthfawr, gan ddysgu sut i gyflwyno’ch canfyddiadau yn glir ac yn ddarbwyllol.

Erbyn diwedd y cwrs, byddwch wedi datblygu ystod o sgiliau sydd nid yn unig yn ddefnyddiol ar gyfer astudiaeth bellach ond sydd hefyd yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi gan gyflogwyr. Byddwch yn barod i ymgymryd ag amrywiaeth o yrfaoedd cyffrous mewn archaeoleg, hanes neu feysydd cysylltiedig. Mae’r radd hon yn darparu sylfaen gadarn i’r rhai sydd â diddordeb mewn archwilio’r gorffennol trwy ddulliau archeolegol ac ymchwil hanesyddol. Mae’n cynnig cyfle unigryw i ddeall datblygiad cymdeithasau dynol, a chyfrannu at ddadleuon ynghylch sut rydym yn dehongli ac yn cadw’r gorffennol ar gyfer cenedlaethau’r dyfodol.

Beth fyddwch chi'n ei ddysgu

Mae ein gradd cydanrhydedd Archaeoleg a Hanes wedi’i hadeiladu o amgylch dysgu ymarferol, ymholiad beirniadol ac astudiaeth ryngddisgyblaethol. Byddwch yn datblygu’r sgiliau i ddadansoddi tystiolaeth hanesyddol ac archeolegol, gan gael mewnwelediad i sut y gwnaeth cymdeithasau’r gorffennol siapio’r byd rydym yn byw ynddo heddiw.

120 credyd y flwyddyn. Mae myfyrwyr Cydanrhydedd fel arfer yn rhannu’r credydau’n gyfartal rhwng eu dau bwnc, gan astudio 60 credyd o fodiwlau Archaeoleg a 60 credyd mewn modiwlau Hanes.

Yn eich blwyddyn gyntaf, cewch eich cyflwyno i sylfeini archaeoleg a hanes. Byddwch yn astudio hanfodion gweddillion materol, gan gynnwys arteffactau, arfau carreg, ac esgyrn, ac yn dysgu sut i ymdrin â thystiolaeth hanesyddol drwy ffynonellau gwreiddiol. Bydd ffocws ar feddwl beirniadol yn ganolog wrth i chi ddechrau archwilio hanes yr henfyd, hanes byd-eang, a dulliau archeolegol allweddol.

Dewisol

Yn eich ail flwyddyn, byddwch yn dyfnhau eich dealltwriaeth o ddulliau archeolegol a dadansoddiad hanesyddol. Byddwch yn cymryd rhan mewn ymchwil maes i archwilio’r defnydd o’ch astudiaethau mewn lleoliadau byd go iawn, gan ganolbwyntio ar ranbarthau penodol fel Môr y Canoldir, Gwlad Groeg a Rhufain. Byddwch hefyd yn archwilio hanes cymdeithasol a hanes diwylliannol, gan ddatblygu eich gallu i ddehongli ffynonellau cymhleth a mireinio eich sgiliau ymchwil.

Dewisol

Sylwer: Gall rhai modiwlau redeg bob yn ail flwyddyn. 

Yn eich blwyddyn olaf, byddwch yn arbenigo mewn meysydd sydd o ddiddordeb i chi, fel astudiaethau cynhanesyddol neu dirweddau hanesyddol. Fe gewch y cyfle i archwilio technegau archeolegol uwch, gan gynnwys astudio DNA hynafol a chymwysiadau digidol. Yn fyfyriwr hanes, byddwch yn mireinio eich gallu i ddadansoddi a chyfleu naratifau hanesyddol trwy ymchwil annibynnol a chyflwyno casgliadau seiliedig ar dystiolaeth.

 

Dewisol

Sylwer: Gall rhai modiwlau redeg bob yn ail flwyddyn. Hefyd, ni chaiff myfyrwyr gymryd fersiwn Lefel 6 o fodiwl a gymerwyd ar Lefel 5.

Archaeology and History (BA Hons)

Carmarthen
3 Years Full-time
96-112 UCAS Points

The Archaeology and History degree programme offers students the chance to dive deep into the human past, learning both in the classroom and out in the field. This exciting course is designed to develop your skills in exploring historical evidence and archaeological evidence from ancient times to the modern day. You will gain hands-on experience through field research and practical skills as you examine material remains like stone tools, pottery, and bones. These artefacts tell the story of how past societies lived, worked, and interacted with their environments.

In Archaeology, you will focus on exploring the past through the physical evidence left behind by humans. You will study the material remains of past cultures, learning how these objects can reveal important insights into social organisation, technology, and daily life. You will also explore how human development has shaped the world we live in today. Historic buildings, monuments, and landscapes all play a part in this exploration, helping you understand the larger context in which these artefacts were created. By studying the way people used the land, how they adapted to environmental change, and how their beliefs influenced their actions, you will develop a more complete picture of human history.

This programme also explores the role of technology in archaeology. You will learn about modern technology, including the use of digital applications, ancient DNA, and advanced laboratory techniques to help study artefacts and better understand ancient societies. These tools are essential for uncovering new insights into the human body evolution and the cultural development of past communities.

In addition to the hands-on practical learning, you will engage with the theoretical and ethical questions that shape the study of the past. Issues like heritage, representation, and the impact of technology on archaeological research are critical areas of discussion. You will learn to think critically and explore these questions through both interdisciplinary approaches and the study of prehistoric to modern history.

Alongside Archaeology, this degree also offers a thorough exploration of History, from ancient history to global history. The course will teach you how to critically engage with a wide range of historical narratives, from political history to cultural history and social history. By examining primary sources and historiographical evidence, you will learn how to analyse past events and form evidence-based interpretations. You will also gain valuable communication skills, learning how to present your findings clearly and persuasively.

By the end of the course, you will have developed a range of skills that are not only useful for further study but also highly valued by employers. You will be prepared to take on a variety of exciting careers in archaeology, history, or related fields. This degree provides a solid foundation for those interested in exploring the past through both archaeological methods and historical research. It offers a unique opportunity to understand the development of human societies, and to contribute to debates about how we interpret and preserve the past for future generations.

Saesneg a Hanes (Llawn amser) (BA Anrh)

Caerfyrddin
3 Blynedd Llawn amser
96-112 o Bwyntiau UCAS

Mae’r Radd Cydanrhydedd Saesneg a Hanes yn cynnig cyfle i chi archwilio dau bwnc diddorol sy’n rhyngberthyn. Mae’r cwrs hwn yn galluogi i chi astudio llenyddiaeth Saesneg a hanes, a’r croestoriadau rhyngddynt, gan ddatblygu’r sgiliau deallusol i fynd i’r afael â’r pynciau hyn o amrywiaeth o safbwyntiau.

Mae rhan Saesneg y radd yn cwmpasu ystod eang o lenyddiaeth o wahanol enres a chyfnodau, o Shakespeare i ffuglen gyfoes, ac yn archwilio themâu a syniadau allweddol sydd wedi siapio datblygiad llenyddiaeth a’r ddealltwriaeth ohoni. Byddwch yn ymgysylltu â theori lenyddol ac arfer dadansoddi llenyddol, gan ddysgu dehongli testunau yn eu cyd-destun hanesyddol ac adfyfyrio ar sut mae llenyddiaeth yn adlewyrchu ac yn siapio cymdeithas. Byddwch hefyd yn cael y cyfle i gynhyrchu ymatebion creadigol i destunau.

Mae rhan Hanes y radd hon yn archwilio hanes Ewrop, yr Unol Daleithiau, a thu hwnt, yn amrywio o Rufain yr Henfyd i’r cyfnod modern. Fe fydd yn galluogi i chi archwilio ystod o ymagweddau thematig at hanes, gan gynnwys hanes gwleidyddol, hanes cymdeithasol, a hanes diwylliannol, gan eich annog i ystyried cyfoeth ac amrywiaeth profiad dyn ar draws amser. 

Byddwch yn dysgu i ddadansoddi testunau a ffynonellau a dealltwriaeth o sgiliau naratif a meddwl beirniadol. Caiff y sgiliau hyn eu profi trwy ystod o asesiadau, o draethodau i brosiectau archif a llyfrgell, i ymatebion creadigol.

Mae’r ddau bwnc yn gweithio gyda’i gilydd i wella eich sgiliau cyfathrebu, gan ganolbwyntio ar sut i gyflwyno syniadau cymhleth yn glir ac yn argyhoeddiadol. Mae’r sgiliau hyn yn werthfawr nid yn unig mewn cyd-destun academaidd, ond ar gyfer ystod o yrfaoedd ar ôl graddio. Erbyn diwedd y cwrs, byddwch yn gallu asesu deunyddiau hanesyddol a llenyddol yn feirniadol, gan ddarparu dehongliadau seiliedig ar dystiolaeth o’r gorffennol ac ymgysylltu â dadleuon diwylliannol, llenyddol a hanesyddol mewn ffordd ystyrlon.

Mae’r radd gydanrhydedd hon yn y Dyniaethau yn rhoi cyfle i adeiladu profiad academaidd cydlynol a gafaelgar, gan gynnig hyblygrwydd i greu cyfuniadau o fodylau sy’n gweddu orau i’ch diddordebau. Drwy astudio Saesneg a Hanes, byddwch yn meithrin dealltwriaeth ddofn o’r cyfnodau hanesyddol sydd wedi siapio ein byd a datblygu’r sgiliau dadansoddol a chreadigol sy’n angenrheidiol er mwyn dehongli llenyddiaeth a hanes.

Pam dewis y cwrs hwn

01
Yn heriol yn academaidd ac yn greadigol, ein bwriad yw meithrin eich doniau creadigol ar draws ystod o ffurfiau gwahanol – gan gynnwys straeon byrion, sgriptiau ffilm, barddoniaeth, drama a nofelau.
02

Beth fyddwch chi'n ei ddysgu

Mae’r rhaglen Cydanrhydedd Saesneg a Hanes wedi’i chynllunio i feithrin meddwl beirniadol, creadigrwydd, a dysgu annibynnol. Trwy gyfres o astudiaethau rhyngddisgyblaethol, bydd myfyrwyr yn datblygu’r sgiliau angenrheidiol i ddadansoddi a dehongli testunau llenyddol a hanesyddol. Gan ganolbwyntio ar feddwl beirniadol, ysgrifennu creadigol, a chyd-destun hanesyddol llenyddiaeth, anogir myfyrwyr i ymgysylltu â syniadau a safbwyntiau cymhleth.

Yn y flwyddyn gyntaf, caiff myfyrwyr eu cyflwyno i gysyniadau craidd ym meysydd llenyddiaeth Saesneg a hanes. Bydd y ffocws ar ddatblygu sgiliau meddwl beirniadol, archwilio genres llenyddol mawr a chyfnodau hanesyddol, a dysgu technegau ymchwil allweddol. Bydd myfyrwyr yn dechrau deall sut mae beirniadaeth lenyddol a dadansoddiad hanesyddol yn croestorri, gyda ffocws ar ddadansoddi testunau gwreiddiol yn eu cyd-destun hanesyddol.

Gorfodol

Dewisol

Bydd Blwyddyn dau yn adeiladu ar y sylfeini a osodwyd yn y flwyddyn gyntaf, gan gyflwyno pynciau uwch. Bydd myfyrwyr yn dyfnhau eu gwybodaeth am ddehongli llenyddol, ac yn ymgysylltu â phynciau hanesyddol mwy cymhleth, megis hanes gwleidyddol a hanes cymdeithasol. Yn ogystal, byddant yn datblygu sgiliau ymchwil, a fydd yn cynnwys ymchwil archifol, adeiladu naratif hanesyddol, ac archwilio ysgrifennu creadigol a thestunau hanesyddol.

Dewisol

Yn y flwyddyn olaf, bydd myfyrwyr yn ymgymryd â phrosiect traethawd hir annibynnol naill ai yn Saesneg neu Hanes, neu gyfuniad o’r ddau bwnc. Bydd yr ymchwil gwreiddiol hwn yn arddangos sgiliau a ddatblygwyd drwy gydol y rhaglen.

English and History (Full-time) (BA Hons)

Carmarthen
3 Years Full-time
96-112 UCAS Points

The Joint Honours English and History degree offers you the chance to explore two fascinating and interrelated subjects. This course allows you to study both English literature and history, and the intersections between them, developing the intellectual tools to approach these subjects from a variety of perspectives.

The English part of the degree covers a wide range of genres and periods of literature, from Shakespeare to contemporary fiction, and explores key themes and ideas that have shaped the development and understanding of literature. You will engage with both literary theory and the practice of literary analysis, learning to interpret texts in their historical context and reflecting on how literature reflects and shapes society. You will also have the opportunity to produce creative responses to texts.

The History part of this degree explores the history of Europe, the US, and beyond, ranging from Ancient Rome to the modern period. It will allow you to explore a range of  thematic approaches to history, including political history, social history, and cultural history, encouraging you to consider the richness and diversity of human experience across time. 

You will learn textual and source analysis, an understanding of narrative and critical thinking skills. These skills will be tested through a range of assessments, from essays to archive and library projects, to creative responses.

Both subjects work together to improve your communication skills, with a focus on how to present complex ideas clearly and persuasively. These skills are valuable not only in an academic context, but for a range of careers after graduation. By the end of the course, you will be able to critically assess historical and literary materials, providing evidence-based interpretations of the past and engaging with cultural, literary and historical debates in a meaningful way.

This Humanities joint honours degree provides an opportunity to build a coherent and engaging academic experience, offering flexibility to create combinations of modules that best suit your interests. By studying English and History, you’ll gain a deep understanding of the historical periods that have shaped our world and develop the analytical and creative skills necessary for interpreting both literature and history.

Drwy gyfuno athroniaeth ac anthropoleg, mae’r radd gydanrhydedd hon yn caniatáu i fyfyrwyr ddatblygu dealltwriaeth ddofn o hunaniaethau diwylliannol, dadansoddi cymdeithasol, a’r syniadau sy’n siapio taith dynoliaeth trwy hanes ac i’r byd modern.

Athroniaeth: 

Yn wahanol i bynciau eraill, mae athroniaeth yn canolbwyntio nid ar beth i’w feddwl ond ar sut i feddwl. Mae’n annog archwilio cwestiynau mawr: Pwy ydyn ni? Beth yw ein lle ni yn y byd? Sut dylen ni fyw? Trwy astudio moeseg, meddwl beirniadol, a gwaith athronwyr hanesyddol, bydd myfyrwyr yn ymgysylltu â dadleuon o draddodiadau dadansoddol a chyfandirol. Mae’r cwrs hefyd yn cyflwyno athroniaeth y Dwyrain, gan gynnig safbwyntiau amrywiol ar rai o gwestiynau mwyaf parhaus bywyd.

Bydd myfyrwyr yn archwilio hanes athroniaeth y Gorllewin, gan gael cipolwg ar feddylwyr allweddol a’u syniadau. O ddadleuon athronyddol hynafol i fodern, mae’r rhaglen yn arfogi myfyrwyr â meddwl strwythuredig, dadleuon trefnus, a’r gallu i ymateb yn feddylgar i wrthddadleuon.

Anthropoleg: 

Mae anthropoleg yn canolbwyntio ar gyfoeth amrywiaeth ddynol a’r ffyrdd y mae cymdeithasau’n esblygu ac yn rhyngweithio. Mae’n archwilio sut mae pobl yn byw, yn meddwl ac yn mynegi eu hunain ar draws diwylliannau, gan gynnig golwg gynhwysfawr o le dynoliaeth yn y byd. Bydd myfyrwyr yn archwilio themâu fel hunaniaethau diwylliannol, effaith globaleiddio, a heriau cyfoes dybryd trwy ddadansoddi cymdeithasol trylwyr.

Mae’r rhaglen ar y cyd hon yn cysylltu’r archwiliad athronyddol o syniadau mawr ag ymagwedd ymarferol anthropoleg tuag at astudio profiadau dynol yn y byd go iawn. Mae’n berffaith ar gyfer myfyrwyr sydd am gyfuno dyfnder damcaniaethol â dealltwriaeth draws-ddiwylliannol.

Mae’r rhaglen gydanrhydedd hon wedi’i chynllunio gyda hyblygrwydd mewn cof, gan ganiatáu i fyfyrwyr ddewis o ystod eang o fodylau sy’n adlewyrchu eu diddordebau. Mae’r dull rhyngddisgyblaethol hwn yn galluogi myfyrwyr i ddatblygu sgiliau academaidd beirniadol, megis rhesymu dadansoddol, cyfathrebu clir, a’r gallu i ymgysylltu â dadleuon cymhleth.

Mae graddedigion o’r rhaglen hon wedi’u paratoi’n dda i fynd i’r afael â materion cyfoes, gan gymhwyso eu sgiliau i yrfaoedd mewn addysg, ymchwil, llunio polisi, a thu hwnt.
