| Abstract: | Text and Meaning: The Electronic Dictionary of the Irish Language as Treasure-trove
In 2018-19, Máire Ní Mhaonaigh, Professor of Celtic and Medieval studies, collaborated with educationists to take her research to younger audiences. The original project, the electronic Dictionary of Medieval Irish (hosted by the Queen’s University Belfast and the University of Cambridge, 2014-2019 [AH/L007428/1]), led to a major new online version of an earlier resource with substantive new entries and corrections. Through a series of workshops in Cambridge, Cork, Belfast and Dublin, Máire worked with teachers and students to create a pilot range of second-level teaching and learning resources. In this film, Máire talks about e-DIL as a treasure-trove of information concerning words and their meaning, as well as the historical concepts underlying them, and why working with teachers has been valuable. Máire and her colleague, Dr Sharon Arbuthnot, are currently working with another cohort of teachers to create online resources as part of a follow-on project, 2020-2021 'Spreading the Word(s)' [AH/T013516/1].
