With the increased number of MOOC offerings, it is unclear how these courses are related. Previous work has focused on capturing the prerequisite relationships between courses, lectures, and concepts. However, it is also essential to model the content structure of MOOC courses. Constructing a precedence graph that models the similarities and…

Neary, Aoife – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2023
At this juncture, I find myself orientating towards the unruliness of doing arts-based praxis-oriented research with primary school-aged children (aged 5-12) on the topic of LGBTQI+ lives. As I prepare for what feel like disruptive research directions that will chart what many still consider to be forbidden territory with children, I attempt to…
