html.description.abstractThis investigation explores favourable teaching approaches that promote positive attitudes towards the Irish language by investigating the role experience has played for current and former learners of the language. Using quantitative methods, data was collected through an online survey from 50 participants in a mix-gendered post-primary school. The data centres the participants ability to recall learning activities from their experience and describe their current motivation to continue learning Irish. Favourable teaching methods have been uncovered such as collaborative learning, gamification, and immersive experience, which align with literature reviewed in this investigation. However, the data outlined an area of further investigation regarding the use of ICT in the Irish language classroom.
