We took a look at traditional Irish food and I brought in some of my books, maps, monographs, photos, event guides, menus, design catalogues, newspaper clippings, government documents and reports, and other artifacts, and students did group work sparked by interaction with these artifacts, discussions in class, and reflection on cybersleuthing and other research work focused on Irish culture and the dualities that exist.
This post will serve as a space for sharing reflections on, ideas and inquiries about, and responses to our work in class this week, my resources, and our ongoing questions about aspects of Irish popular culture and the divides that exist as well as found resources while cybersleuthing, and during discussions and other research activities.
