Bringing Internationalization into your classroom

The Intercultural Ireland Content Library was created by the Institute of Study Abroad Ireland. We have created two zones – the Intercultural Library has short class content which can be used by educators or students to enjoy a stand-alone session on an aspect of Ireland. 

We have also developed online programs, from 5 classes to 30 hour certificate programs, which can be used by faculty as program content for own courses, or they can be done independently by students as electives, extra courses or as European accredited programs.

Please visit our content library and check out our lessons. If you are interested in working with us, contact us, and we can work together on developing suitable content for you to use. There is no charge for using content from the Intercultural Ireland Content Library.
