Thousands expected to take lessons online in Trinity’s Irish history class
The university’s Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on the turbulent period experienced by Ireland in the early 20th century attracted worldwide interest last year.
Anyone with internet access can still register for the course, Irish Lives in War and Revolution: Exploring Ireland’s History 1912-1923, which got under way yesterday. Over six weeks, Trinity lecturers will explore the lives of men, women, and children in that time, with an emphasis on learning about the contested nature of history caused by various opposing viewpoints.
