National University of Ireland, Galway
​

Picture
Founded in 1845, the National University of Ireland (NUI), Galway is the largest and oldest university based in the west of Ireland, employing in excess of 2,000 staff with a 17,000 strong student population.  NUI Galway is a research-led University and is ranked in the top 1% of Universities globally.

The School of Education, NUI Galway is the national leader in Ireland in the deployment of mobile learning in teacher education. The Máistir Gairmiúil san Oideachas (MGO) is  the national flagship programme in Ireland for teacher education through the medium of the Irish language. The MGO was also the first 1:1 mobile device deployment within a teacher education programme in Europe. Mobile technology is systematically designed and integrated to support all key professional educational aspects of the MGO, with a specific focus on pre-service teachers’ learning by design (Mac Mahon, Ó Grádaigh & Ní Ghuidhir, 2016). The MGO was also the first European programme to be awarded the Apple Distinguished Programme (ADP) twice, in 2014-2015 and 2016-2018. The School of Education, NUI Galway founded the MiTE (Mobile Learning in Teacher Education) International Conference, now in its fourth year. This first international conference in the field, hosted this in January 2017 by CalState University, California, (the largest teacher education provider in the world), has helped significantly to mobilise international teacher educators’ practice and research in the emerging area of mobile learning design.
The School of Education has led the development of a special issue series on mobile learning in teacher education with the International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning. Led by Professor Kevin Burden, University of Hull, the School of Education, NUI Galway is a partner in MTTEP (Mobilising and Transforming Teacher Education Pedagogies), contributing to the research and development work of this flagship European initiative to advance and augment teacher education through mobile learning design and deployment. The School of Education, NUI Galway are also partners in the MTech World University Partnership for mobile teacher education.
Key NUI Galway faculty involved with this proposal, Seán Ó Grádaigh and Sinéad Ní Ghuidhir are Apple Distinguished Educators and Dr Tony Hall and Dr Cornelia Connolly are Fellows of the International Society for Design and Development in Education.
The School of Education and NUI Galway also have considerable experience and expertise as partners in European technology-enhanced learning projects, including the EU Horizon 2020 Project, Q-Tales (Quantum Tales). This ICT innovation project has developed an ecosystem - http://www.qtales.com - leveraging the affordances of mobile, multi-touch and portable learning technology - in the design, authoring, publication and curation of e-books to promote children’s literacy. The School of Education, NUI Galway has expertise that is particularly salient to the proposal, including in mobile learning for teacher education and continuing professional development (CPD); and constructive, principled and participatory design-based research with and for pupils, teachers and schools.
