Course Outline latin I is a year long introduction to the basic concepts of classical language. homework is an essential component in learning an inflected language http://www.sprise.com/shs/faculty/classicsatsouh/course.htm
Extractions: LATIN I: COURSE OUTLINE 2000/2001 Instructor: Nancy Baker Overview: What will be different about learning Latin in this class? No textbook. No workbook. No oral dialogues about what you did over the weekend or had for lunch. Otherwise, this is a beginning language class. You will be able to draw on your previous experiences as a language learner, and the vocabulary base you have learned in Spanish (particularly) or French will be useful. What is a typical class like? Nearly every class period will be an integrated lesson that brings together some aspect of culture or history with the Latin language, word derivatives, connections to literature, etc. A concept will be presented briefly, then practiced, connected, and extended through activity sheets, games, visuals, and practice materials. Latin is not learned in isolation, but with careful attention to its relevance in strengthening your language base. I promise that you will leave this class in June with a stronger and more confidently applied English grammar base than when you enter today. And you will have fun building it. Over two years of Latin, I try to give you a sense of the development of western civilization before 1500. The amount of time you spent on the oral component of French or Spanish is now going to be spent on history and culture. What do I need?

LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH In latin, communicative skills are developed and at the same time, composition and advanced reading comprise the rest of the curriculum. http://www.southcountry.org/HIGHSCHOOL/hsdept-lang.htm
Extractions: Following the mandate of the Regents Action Plan, all students in South Country Schools begin LOTE in the seventh grade and may begin another language at any time in the High School; however, the longest possible sequence is recommended in order to achieve conversational proficiency in any language. For those students who have the ability and the time available, a third language is recommended. In the adventure of learning second and third languages students learn about foreign cultures. This expands their mental concepts in terms of new grammatical relationships, ways and means of expressing view points concerning the world around them and an appreciation of the ways other people think and live. All of these are experiences that enhance a student's understanding and appreciation of his/her own culture. French, Italian and Spanish are modern languages and are therefore taught with the major emphasis on oral communication. There is less stress on reading and writing especially in Level I. Levels II, III, IV, and V are taught

Extractions: Introduction to Latin Literature helped students improve their Latin skills by translating one text. The aim was be able to read classical Latin literature on sight. Completion of Latin 11, 20, or a similar level of competence was a requirement for this course. Ms. Nix received mixed reviews from the respondents. Some thought she was always willing to help students who fell behind while others felt that she did not take into consideration the different levels of proficiency and thus did not receive the help they wanted. Some reviewers commented on the interesting historical tidbits she mentioned which increased their interest in the material being translated. Others mentioned that she discouraged them from getting outside help. The semester was spent translating Ciceros Pro Caelio. Students would translate this for homework and come to class with questions. There were also two midterms and a final exam which made up the whole of the grade for the semester. Because of this, some respondents wished that there had been more quizzes and tests to provide the opportunity to make up for low grades on the exams. Five to ten hours were spent working outside of class on translations each week. Many found that this was more than they had expected. The overall feeling of students was that this course is very difficult, but it can be rewarding. A strong interest in continuing study of Latin is necessary to enjoy the course to its fullest.

Extractions: p. 77 On the Horizon: High-tech Help Richard B. Larsen Back in 1963, his finger on the button of the latest of the V-2 descendant, Werner von Braun prophesied that those who ignored technological change were likely to be steamrolled by it geflattent was his choice of words. Now that computerization has come to virtually every comer of American life, those still indifferent to it may indeed become its victims, the crunched numbers of contemporary society. The Law of the High-tech Jungle reads not "eat or be eaten" but "BYTE or be BITten," and it applies as much to composition teachers as to accountants. For those who have yet to climb aboard the bandwagon, this article offers a last chance before it steamrolls by. The technology reviewed below may at first intimidate, then perhaps overwhelm, but ultimately it will persuade the unconvinced that the art of writing has come as far in the last five or six years as it had in all the decades from Gutenberg to Steve Jobs. Born of solid tradition and the mercurial microprocessor, rhetoric has been reborn. p. 78
Latin 106 Syllabus This class continues the course set in latin 104 and 105 during the Fall and Class participation and performance, quizzes, homework exercises 28% http://classics.uc.edu/~johnson/latin106/syllabus.html
Extractions: W illiam A J ohnson MTWThF 10:00 Blegen 214 Spring 2000 This class continues the course set in Latin 104 and 105 during the Fall and Winter quarters. We begin with a mop-up action, by finishing the final four chapters of Wheelock's Latin. But we soon move on to more glorious labors, as in the third week we will begin reading selections of actual Latin from antiquity, using the selections in the Latin Reader Aeneas to Augustus. We will begin with what are, in effect, ancient schoolbooks, but make no mistake: by quarter's end, we will be reading excerpts from the great Latin authors, including Cicero, Caesar, Livy; Catullus, Ovid, Vergil. Along the way, we will continue to make secure our full command over the fundamentals of the language. But our primary focus this term will be to develop fluency in reading simple Latin texts. Do not forget: this is an intensive course . We meet 5 days a week, and I'll expect to see you 5 days a week. Once we move on to the readings, the participatory side of the class will become paramount. Those who do not show up for class cannot participate. Once again, I urge your attention to the all-important goal of

Extractions: W illiam A J ohnson MTWThF 10:00 Blegen 214 Winter 2000 This class continues the course set in Latin 104 during the Fall quarter. By the end of this quarter, we will have mastered (future perfect!) the elements of the language, and will be prepared (passive!) to continue in the Spring with readings of excerpts from actual Latin texts handed down to us from antiquity. To that end, we will interleave a great deal more by way of reading practice during the term, and our attention will naturally turn towards developing strategies of reading; but our primary focus through the Winter quarter will remain on securing full command over the fundamentals of the language, as presented in our introductory textbook (Wheelock). Make no mistake: this is an intensive course . We meet 5 days a week, and I'll expect to see you 5 days a week. Roughly every other day, we'll move along to a new chapter in our introductory textbook, so you'll have to prepare yourself for unusually intense and consistent involvement if you hope to keep up. In the study of language, the main desideratum is consistency: there is nothing inherently difficult in the material, so if you apply yourself routinely and diligently to the exercises, you'll find to your joy! that you'll be able to read reasonably complex Latin by year's end.
