Teaching Classics with Technology

Professor Bartolo Natoli, Steven Hunt
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 iun 2019
The impact of ICT on the teaching of classical languages, literature and culture has not until now been extensively described and evaluated. 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 increasingly expecting high-school students to use ICT in all lessons, with some actively dissuading schools from using traditional printed textbooks. This book presents school teachers with a vital resource as they adapt to this use of educational technology in Classics teaching. This is no less pertinent at university level, in the UK and US, where pedagogy tends to follow traditionalist paradigms: this book offers lecturers frameworks for understanding and assimilating the models of teaching and learning which are prevalent in schools and experienced by their students.

Recenzii

This 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.
[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.
The 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.
What 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.
