Sarah Thelen

‌  

Educated at Bowling Green State University in Ohio and American University in Washington, DC, I moved to Ireland in 2010 and received my PhD in US history from American University in 2012.  I have taught at American University, Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin, and University College Cork and am currently the Lecturer for Teaching and Learning Enhancement (Digital Education) in the Centre for the Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning (CIRTL) at UCC.

Building on over a decade in Instructional Design, I am the programme coordinator for the Certificate in CPD in Digital Education as well as teaching on a variety of CIRTL and UCC programmes.

I have also continued to teach, research, and publish in history with a focus on Twentieth Century US political and cultural history.  My current work explores the ways that President Nixon sought to use patriotic appeals to rally support for his Vietnam War policies.  I have published this research in peer reviewed journals and have contributed to edited collections.
