They choose a research topic from four different theme areas: (1) Teaching, Learning and Assessment, (2) ICT, (3) Psychological, Sociological, Philosophical and Historical and (4) Inclusion and Differentiation. In this publication, graduate teachers cover a diverse range of research areas, for example, the LGBTI+ supports available to teachers, effective literacy interventions, media literacy education and the impact of one-to-one iPad use on teaching and learning. This collection of education papers showcases research from graduate teachers from both our Professional Master of Education in Post-Primary and Primary Education programmes. Each of the authors demonstrated a passionate dedication to research whilst completing a demanding course. The projects they undertook are timely, thought-provoking and important in the continued advancement of educational practice in Irish schools. The dissemination of open-access research plays an important role in the development of educational practice. The purpose of this publication is to not only showcase the high-quality research of our graduate teachers, but to provide and disseminate models of good research practice to our future students in the School of Education and to the wider education community. 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 todayendissertationsstudent dissertationsteacher educationresearchstudent researchBook
