Abstract
We are very pleased to publish Volume Three of the Hibernia College Education Papers. As part of the Professional Master of Education programme, students complete a 10,000-word dissertation during their research module. They choose a research topic from four different theme areas: (1) Teaching, Learning and Assessment, (2) ICT, (3) Psychological, Sociological and Historical and(4) Inclusion and Differentiation. In this publication, graduate teachers cover a diverse range of research areas, for example, the inclusion of children with special needs; music engagement; the delivery of Science education; and the ‘Friends for Life’ programme to name just a few. Their success in choosing such a variety of thought-provoking projects bears testament to their steadfast commitment to research whilst completing a demanding course. This year, we are especially delighted that some of our top-performing graduate teachers in the Professional Master of Education in Post Primary Education join our Primary graduates in showcasing their research activities. The impetus of this publication is to not only showcase high-quality research of our current graduate teachers but to provide and disseminate models of good research practice to our future students in the School of Education. We pay tribute to the dedication and support of our research supervisors in encouraging our student teachers to not only engage with research in a professional way but to instil a culture of teachers as researchers. We continue to prioritise the value of research and are proud to disseminate this body of student work as a collection of key research issues that permeate Irish education today.
