St Mary’s University College, Belfast, leads learning in Irish-medium education
Congratulations to St Mary’s University College, Belfast, on the launch of its latest research publication, the seventh edition of Taighde agus Teagasc, at the St Mary’s campus on Thursday, 6 February 2020.
The latest edition of the journal presents research papers by academics and educators from universities throughout Ireland focusing on Irish-medium education. The peer-reviewed journal is associated with the triennial conference on Irish-medium education held in the College. The journal opens with an introduction by Dr Pádraig Ó Mianáin, who was guest speaker at the earlier conference where he made an inspiring address. Eleven research papers follow, exploring a wide range of issues relevant to Irish-medium education. Copies of the journal were distributed at the launch event and a pdf version will soon be available on the St Mary’s University College Website.
At the launch celebration, Dónal Ó hAiniféin made an introductory address before officially launching the new publication. He asked the school principals in the audience to make the journal available to their staff and to use it to inspire debate and professional reflection on some of the research findings reported in the journal. The event was attended by professionals from schools, universities, the Department of Education, CCEA as well as representatives from the media and the community sector, West Belfast Partnership Board and Cultúrlann Mac Adam-Ó Fiaich. Students from the Irish-medium academic programmes contributed to the event with some traditional Irish music.
If you would like a copy of the journal, some are available
at An Ceathrú Póilí, Cultúrlann Mac Adaim-Ó Fiaich, Belfast, or contact St Mary's (Ciarán Ó Dornáin).
