  • Quality assuring an ethical education curriculum for schools in Ireland

    Open AccessShivaun O’brien, Shivaun O'Brien et al.ARTICLESN Social Sciences2023

    The growth of multidenominational schools internationally has led to a greater emphasis on the provision of ethical education curricula in many countries as opposed to the more traditional provision of denominational instruction. One of the main providers of multidenominational schools in Ireland is Educate Together, an organisation which currently serves as a patron body for 95 primary and 19 s level schools, catering to over 30,000 students.

  • The management of symbolic raw materials in the Late Upper Paleolithic of South-Western France

    Open AccessSolange Rigaud, John F O’hara et al.ARTICLEPeer Community Journal2022Cited by: 1References: 23

    Personal ornaments manufactured on marine and fossil shell are a significant element of Upper Palaeolithic symbolic material culture, and are often found at considerable distances from Pleistocene coastlines or relevant fossil deposits. Here, we report on a significant collection of shell objects (n=377) from the Upper Magdalenian site of Rochereil (Dordogne, France). Despite the location of the site at more than 200km from the Pleistocene coast,…

  • A Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Light Wave Sensing and Communication Project

This article demonstrates the nature of the project and its preliminary effectiveness. Background: Concepts in wireless sensing and communication are generally co…

  • Le site aurignacien de l’abri de la Souquette (commune de Sergeac, Dordogne)

    Open AccessJohn F O’hara, John O’hara et al.ARTICLEPalethnologie2015

    De nos jours, l’abri de la Souquette est peu connu par rapport aux sites voisins de l’abri Castanet et de l’abri Blanchard. La longue histoire des recherches à l’abri de la Souquette n’a pas abouti à une compréhension approfondie de ce site ayant livré des dépôts aurignaciens considérables, mais plutôt à une sorte d’obscurité savante dans laquelle le site est considéré comme étant dépourvu de potentiel dans le domaine de la recherche. Dans cette …

  • The Aurignacian Site of the Abri de la Souquette (commune de Sergeac, Dordogne)

    Open AccessJohn F O’hara, Randall White et al.ARTICLEPalethnologie2015Cited by: 2References: 1

    The Abri de la Souquette is little known today when compared with the neighboring sites of Abri Castanet and Abri Blanchard. A long history of investigation at the Abri de la Souquette has led not to a wider understanding of a site with significant Aurignacian deposits, but rather to scholarly obscurity as a site devoid of further research potential. In this paper, we attempt to lift some of this obscurity by chronicling the history of research a…
