Irish culture is undergoing a popular renaissance, with a consistent profusion of films, music, tv-shows, and literature being issued in the last decade. The old image of Ireland as a land of quaint myth and “simple folk” has rapidly been replaced with a new cultural confidence and importance. This is all the more relevant given the island’s membership of the EU, limited immunity from Brexit, and abiding connection with the USA. However, Ireland still uses administratively and culturally the oldest variety of overseas English in the world - Irish-English. Therefore, teaching about Ireland must tread with care. Intercultural sensitive is needed, not just proficiency with English. This course will explore how best to teach the culture and heritage of the island and its inhabitants, and offers students the chance to develop intercultural competences in their teaching practice. In small groups students will analyse Irish cultural products, and develop their own teaching ideas.
