10 Institute of Technology Blanchardstown Annual Report 1999–2002: Volume 2 11 Teanga, Cultúr agus Sochaí Gaelach Tá ITB ag iarraidh go dearfa, aithne agus tuiscint ar an teanga, cultúr agus an sochaí gaelach a cruthú. Chun é sin a dhéanamh, tá na hiarrachtaí seo a leanas ar bhun sa choláiste. Tá ainm gaelach ar gach foirgneamh sa champus nua, mar seo a leanas: Bloc A Bloc B Bloc C Bloc D Bloc E Bloc F Aontas (Réamh-fhoirgneamh) Buntús (Ionad Foghlamtha) Croí (Foirgneamh Ilfheidhmeach, an halla spóirt agus an bialann san áireamh) Doras (Foirgneamh na bPrintíseach) Eolas (Foirgneamh Múinteoireachta) Fios (Foirgneamh Leabharlainne agus Riaracháin) Tá comharthaí dátheangacha i ngach foirgneamh Bunaíodh cumann agallaimh gaelaigh chun an teanga labharta a spreagadh idir an foireann agus na mic léinn agus bíonn cruinniú acu go rialta. Tá modúl nua, darbh ainm Cultúr agus Sochaí Gaelach, sa chéad téarma den chúrsa Teastas Náisiúnta sa Staidéir Ghnó. Agus an modúl seo críochnaithe acu, tuighfidh na mic léinn conas mar a fhorbair an sochaí agus an cultúr gaelach go dtí an lá atá inniu ann agus na cumhachtaí is mó a ndeachaigh i gcion ar an gcultúr. Irish Language, Culture and Society ITB proactively wants to create an awareness and understanding of Irish language, culture and society. The following initiatives have been undertaken to this end: All buildings on our new campus have Irish names, as follows: Block A Block B Block C Block D Block E Block F Aontas (Advance Building) Buntús (Learning and Innovation Building) Croí (Multipurpose Building including Sports Hall and Restaurant) Doras (Apprentice Building) Eolas (Teaching Building) Fios (Library and Administration Building) All signage within these buildings are bi-lingual. To encourage the use of conversational Irish among staff and students, an Irish conversation group has been established and holds regular meetings. A module called Irish Culture and Society has been introduced into the first semester of the National Certificate in Business Studies Course. On completion of this module students have an understanding of how Irish society and culture has developed to date and the major influences in the development of Irish culture. Academic and Student Affairs Academic Council The first Academic Council was appointed in February 2000. Council members are appointed for a period of three years (with the exception of student representatives) and are eligible for reappointment. The Academic Council currently has 17 members. The Council normally meets five times per year on a scheduled basis, with additional meetings as necessary. The Council has established a number of sub-committees. These subcommittees meet normally once per semester during the academic year, or more frequently if required. The main focus of each sub-committee is: Admissions: responsible for policy and development of admissions and recommendation of regulations to the Governing Body for the selection, retention and exclusion of students. Research and Postgraduate Studies: responsible for assisting the Governing Body in the planning, coordination, quality control and development of postgraduate studies within the Institute. Apprenticeship Sub-committee: responsible for academic operations and quality standards of phase 4 & 6 of FAS Apprenticeship offered. Education Subcommittee: considers practices and new innovative procedures applied to teaching academic courses. The Academic Council appoints a Course Board for each academic course annually, and also appoints extern examiners for all courses. Both these activities are part of the ongoing academic quality assurance programme of ITB. The Academic Council members are: Mary Meaney Director Diarmuid O’Callaghan Registrar (September 2000) Larry McNutt Head of School Pat McGarty Head of School (ceased March 2002) Brian Watters Academic and Acting Head of School (March 2002) Aidín O’Sullivan Librarian Gary Bernie Academic Richard Gallery Academic Geraldine Gray Academic Anthony Keane Academic Mary Ann Kenny Academic Raymond Manley Academic Brian Nolan Academic Terence Sheridan Academic Stephen White Technical Support Martin Cummins Student Representative Irene Murtagh Student Representative
