Nevertheless, educational technology has made a huge difference to the ways in which Classics is taught at junior, senior and college level. The book brings together twenty major approaches to the use of technology in the classroom and presents them for a wide, international audience. It thus forms a record of current and developing practice, promotes further discussion and use among practitioners (teachers, learners and trainers) and offers suggestions for changes in pedagogical practices in the teaching of Classics for the better.    The many examples of practice from both UK and US perspectives are applicable to countries throughout the world where Classics is being taught. The more traditional curricula of high-school education in the UK and Europe are drawing more and more on edutech, whereas educational jurisdictions in the US are increasing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis must surely now become the seminal text now for all those engaged in the teaching of classics, whether the languages or civilisation. It is also extremely relevant to those who are interested in the development and application of technology in schools and colleges, regardless of subject specialism. * Classics for All *\u003cbr\u003e[This book] allows us, in many ways, to better understand the need to adapt the teaching of Classics to the digital and collective age, and provides teachers with valuable advice. educational, theoretical and practical, to arouse a renewed interest in ancient worlds among students. * Anabases (trans. by Bloomsbury Academic) *\u003cbr\u003eThe main contribution of the volume is its rootedness in practice; instead of manifestos, theory, and prophetic mantras, individual chapters represent reports from the trenches, as it were: real-life experiments with a range of technologies with real students in physical and virtual classrooms … This is an inspiring and useful book and even the most obstinate Hotmail user will find it invigorating. * Greece \u0026amp; Rome *\u003cbr\u003eWhat shines through every chapter of this volume, and the text as a whole, is the persistent relevance of principles underpinning digital Classics pedagogies ... and are more potent now for having been put to the ultimate test. * The Classical Review *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e    List of Figures  Editors and Contributors  Foreword \u003ci\u003eKenneth Kitchell, independent scholar, USA\u003c\/i\u003e  Acknowledgements  Introduction\u003ci\u003e Bartolo Natoli, Randolph-Macon College, USA and Steven Hunt, University of Cambridge, UK\u003c\/i\u003e    \u003cb\u003ePart I Blended and Distance Models\u003c\/b\u003e    \u003cb\u003e1\u003c\/b\u003e Flipping Romans: experiments in using technology for teaching in higher education \u003ci\u003eKate Gilliver, Cardiff University, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e2\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ci\u003eAuream quisquis mediocritatem diligit\u003c\/i\u003e: The Joyful Learning Community Model for Learning Latin Online\u003ci\u003e Justin Schwamm, independent scholar, USA\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e3 \u003c\/b\u003eDistance Learning Latin \u003ci\u003eVerity Walden, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e4\u003c\/b\u003e Making IT Count: Measuring Student Engagement with Online Latin Resources at the Open University \u003ci\u003eMair Lloyd,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eindependent scholar, UK and James Robson, Open University, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e5 \u003c\/b\u003eVLW, Latin Literature, and Student Voice \u003ci\u003eElizabeth Lewis, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e6 \u003c\/b\u003eGoing Digital: The Principles behind CyberCaesar \u003ci\u003eAlan Chadwick, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e7 \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eUna Vita\u003c\/i\u003e: Exploring the Relationship between Play, Learning Science, and Cultural Competency\u003ci\u003e Stephen Slota, University of Connecticut, USA and Kevin Ballestrini, independent scholar, USA\u003c\/i\u003e    \u003cb\u003ePart II Classics without Language: Literature, Culture, and Outreach Models\u003c\/b\u003e    \u003cb\u003e8\u003c\/b\u003e Using Virtual Learning Environments for Classics Outreach\u003ci\u003e Emma Searle, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e9 \u003c\/b\u003eFrom Research on Roman History into Cartoons and Outreach to UK Schools\u003ci\u003e Ray Laurence, Macquarie University, Australia\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e10\u003c\/b\u003e Vase Animations and Primary-Aged Learners \u003ci\u003eSonya Nevin, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e11\u003c\/b\u003e Sketchup and digital modelling for Classics\u003ci\u003e Matthew Nicholls,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eUniversity of Reading, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e12\u003c\/b\u003e iPad Technology and the Classics Classroom \u003ci\u003eCaron Downes, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e13\u003c\/b\u003e Just-in-time learning: Using handheld voting devices in the undergraduate lecture room\u003ci\u003e Helen Lovatt, University of Nottingham, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e14\u003c\/b\u003e Teaching the Geography of the Ancient World \u003ci\u003eScott Arcenas, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eDartmouth College, USA\u003c\/i\u003e    \u003cb\u003ePart III Using Technology in the Ancient Language Classroom\u003c\/b\u003e    \u003cb\u003e15 \u003c\/b\u003eBridging the Gap between Students and Antiquity: Language Acquisition Videos with Minecraft and CI\/TPRS \u003ci\u003eJessie Craft, independent scholar, USA\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e16\u003c\/b\u003e On Stage and Screen: ‘Big Book’ Latin and Dialogic Teaching\u003ci\u003e Steven Hunt,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eUniversity of Cambridge, UK\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e17\u003c\/b\u003e Using Annotations in Google Docs to Foster Authentic Classics Learning \u003ci\u003eRoger Travis,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eUniversity of Connecticut, USA\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e18\u003c\/b\u003e Project-Based Learning, Technology, and the Advanced Language Classroom\u003ci\u003e Bartolo Natoli, Randolph-Macon College, USA\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003e19\u003c\/b\u003e In the Classroom with Multi-Modal Teaching \u003ci\u003eLisa Hay, independent scholar, UK\u003c\/i\u003e    \u003cb\u003eAppendix I Glossary of terms\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cb\u003eAppendix II Comparison of UK and US Educational Systems\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cb\u003eIndex\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019628511575,"sku":"9781350110939","price":24.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781350110939.jpg?v=1750780833","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/teaching-classics-with-technology-9781350110939","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
