SUMMARY:Experiencing Ancient Education
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 19th November\, 2014\, 10am – 5pm \n  \nThis event offers students aged 10–18 the opportunity to experience first-hand what education was like during the Roman Empire\, using the results of recent research by University of Reading academics. It is suitable for those currently studying the Roman period and for those thinking of studying Classics or History at university. \n  \nYou can find out: \n\nhow to write with a reed pen on a potsherd\, or with a stylus on a wax tablet\,\nwhat reading was like in antiquity\,\nwhat study is like in a room where every student is doing something different\, with no lectures\, no technology\, no raised hands\, and no homework – and why the ancient schools worked that way\,\nhow researchers and university students can make new discoveries about the past.\n\n  \nLecturers and current students at the University of Reading will act as ancient teachers to guide students through authentic ancient school exercises using replica school equipment and the teaching and learning methods of ancient education. All equipment and costumes will be provided. \n  \nThe event is free\, but booking is essential as places are limited: see http://beinghumanfestival.org/event/experiencing-ancient-education/. \nGroups should book a timed slot and expect their visit to take roughly 2 hours total. \nFurther information is available from E.Dickey@reading.ac.uk.

We want to share our enthusiasm in a new initiative addressed to teachers and pupils in Key Stages 3–5: come visit us at Cambridge and experience both Cambridge and Classics hands-on! You do not currently need to study Classical Civilization\, Ancient History\, or the ancient languages – an interest in doing so is enough! It is possible to learn \nGreek and Latin at Cambridge regardless of one’s A-level subjects. \nAn example programme for the day: \n(We can also accommodate later start and end times or half-day visits) Around 10:00:   Arrival at the Faculty \n10.00 – 10.30:    Welcome and settling in \n10.30 – 11.15:    Talk by a Cambridge academic on a Classical subject\, tailored to the age and background of the group \n11.15 – 11.30:    Break \n11.30 – 12.30:    Tour of the Museum of Classical Archaeology \n12.30 – 14:00:    Lunch in either the Faculty or one of the Colleges\, hosted \nby one of our ‘student ambassadors’\, fielding questions \nabout studying at Cambridge \n14:00 – 15:00:    Optional supervision-style class with a Cambridge academic \nThe initiative is addressed to schools in the maintained sector\, and we are pleased to be able to offer help with travel expenses and provide refreshments and lunch here in Cambridge free of charge. The places for each date are strictly limited\, so please be in touch early. If you are unable to make any of the dates\, we will try to find an alternative day for your visit. \n19th November 2014; 10th February\, 6th March\, 19th June\, 24th June 2015 \nWe hope the prospect of visiting the Faculty appeals to you.
