Since 2010, I have been contributing to PG6003: Teaching for Graduate Studies, Centre for Teaching and Learning, UCC.  



Adult Education

Since 1992, I have contributed to the Certificate and Diploma (NFQ Level 6 and 7) in European Art History, Centre for Adult Continuing Education (CACE), University College Cork. Since 2009, I have designed a series of short courses on masterpieces from Irish and British art collections. The masterpieces series is intended introduce the public to well known masterpieces from irish and British art collections. While paintings are the focus for discussion, the courses are histories of culture. since 2009, I have contributed to the "Culture of the Big House: art and culture of the Anglo-Irish". CACE, in partnership with the Irish Heritage Trust, offers this course in Fota House, Co. Cork. This teaching space fosters an authentic learning experience.
