How does learning Latin help us to understand the modern languages of Europe and beyond? What can archaeological objects found in the Near East tell us about how people lived in the ancient world? At the upcoming UCL Ancient World and Classics taster day our lecturers will study closely these and related questions. They will give you a sense of what it is like to study Classics and the Ancient World at the undergraduate level at UCL.\n\n \n\nDuring the online taster day\, you will learn about the degree-structure and the many exciting pathways you can follow. You will also learn about the departmental Greek play\, organised and run by students and performed at UCL’s Bloomsbury Theatre every year. In 2021\, The production as well as accompanying material will at least be partly online (with further details to follow in the autumn). You will listen to one 30 min long taster lecture by Dr Marigold Norbye\, providing you with a real flavour of what studying the Ancient World and Classics at the university level is like. You will also have the chance to meet (virtually) current undergraduates and ask them questions about their experience at UCL..\n\n \n\nTo register\, please follow this link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ucl-classics-and-ancient-world-taster-day-i-2020-tickets-122379114225

SUMMARY:Cycling the limits of the Roman Empire (Penny Coombe)
DESCRIPTION:Penny Coombe\, a DPhil student in Classical Archaeology at Oxford\, will discuss her project to cycle the frontiers of the Roman Empire.\n\n \nAbout this Event\n \n\nPenny returned to Oxford in 2016 as a mature student to study for a DPhil in Classical Archaeology. Since her focus is on the sculpture of Roman Britain and Germany\, and boundaries of culture\, she decided that a good way to research her work would be to cycle the frontiers of the Roman Empire. She started with northern Europe and has so far pedalled solo along Hadrian’s Wall\, and from the coast of the Netherlands to Bratislava\, blogging as she went. This talk will cover the journey so far and offer some insights into engaging the public with research.\n\n \nBOOK!

SUMMARY:Training Days at Warwick School
DESCRIPTION:From David Stephenson…\n\n \n\nI am arranging for three events to happen\, live if permissible and remote if not\, at Warwick School. Two of them are geared around supporting pupils preparing for public examinations but\, given the lack thereof this Summer\, will be more generally focused on how we support our students. (As opposed to spending some of it reviewing and discussing scripts.) There is a chance the Hellenic Bookservice will be selling their wares at these.\n\n \n\nMon Jan 11th – new ICT from lockdown (am) / new Latin courses (pm): for the morning I am hoping to arrange various breakout options to look at new ICT which has been used during lockdown but which can now enhance live teaching too. You are most welcome to come to this without offering anything but I invite anyone who has mastered a particular piece of new ICT – no matter how left-field – which they think will continue to be worth using live\, to come and talk about it in a breakout group. Absolutely not high-falluting and unrealistically advanced – just bottom line key uses of anything you have cracked these past months. The Warwick classicists will offer a couple too\, of course! For example\, one member of my department has spent a lot of time using Peardeck. In the afternoon we will have presentations by i) Will Griffifths from Hands Up Education on the new “Suburani” course\, ii) Katherine Radice\, Head of Classics at the Stephen Perse School in Cambridge\, on her new “De Romanis” course\, and iii) someone from CSCP will speak about their latest developments and resources.\n\n \n\nFri Jan 29th – Greek GCSE and GCE (led by John Taylor): ideas around ensuring that our candidates are properly and thoroughly prepared and stretched\, certainly to include specific suggestions of converting 8 to 9 / A to A* (rather harder for Greek than for Latin\, I imagine many in the fortunate position of teaching both would agree!) I should think that John needs no introduction with his many Greek textbook publications and extensive experience in the examining of Greek. He has regularly addressed groups on them for OCR and Keynote Education.\n\n \n\nMon Feb 8th – Class. Civ. GCSE (am) and GCE (pm) (led by Caroline Bristow): on what is needed for the exam but also classroom teaching focused. We would likely work through elements of the specification (source work\, essay technique\, use of scholarship etc.) and look at ideas for teaching them in detail. Caroline is now Director of CSCP but was previously a Classics subject officer for OCR and was heavily involved in the production of the current GCSE and GCE specifications. She has regularly addressed groups on them for OCR.\n\n \n\nI will need to ask for a nominal contribution towards this to cover the speakers’ and catering costs. I do not envisage more than £40-50 per school represented (send as many as you like) for the Greek and ICT/new courses day (unless your school is offering an ICT breakout in which case it’s free)\, and £100 for the Class. Civ. one. This would include a hot and cold buffet lunch as well as refreshments at various points in the day – I’m not kidding when I say our caterers are really rather good at catering for events like this! If the rules force us to run remotely instead\, the costs will reduce significantly.\n\n \n\nIf you are interested in any or all of these training days\, please email me on d.stephenson@warwickschool.org and indicate which one(s). Please also let me know if you do not want to come (all the way) to Warwick for a live affair but would be interested in attending a remote one. Please would you let me know by the beginning of November\, at which point I will produce the exact programme for each day after inviting input from those concerned.\n\n \n\nI look forward to hearing from all who are interested. Please do tell me if you would like to be removed from any future mailings.\n\n \n\nYours sincerely\,\nDavid Stephenson.

SUMMARY:UCL Ancient World and Classics Virtual Taster Day
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 27th January 2021\, 2:00-4:00 pm GMT\n\n \n\nRegister here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ucl-classics-and-ancient-world-taster-day-ii-2020-tickets-130784478897\n\n \n\nDear Students and Teachers\,\n\nthe UCL Greek and Latin department invites you to the upcoming  UCL Ancient World and Classics Virtual Taster Day\, to be held online on Wednesday 27th January 2021\, 2:00-4:00 pm GMT\n\nWhat can we learn from a Greek play? How does learning Latin help us to understand the modern languages of Europe and beyond? What can archaeological objects found in the Near East tell us about how people lived in the ancient world? At the upcoming UCL Ancient World and Classics taster day our lecturers will study closely these and related questions. They will give you a sense of what it is like to study Classics and the Ancient World at the undergraduate level at UCL.\n\nDuring the online taster day\, you will learn about the degree-structure and the many exciting pathways you can follow. You will also learn about the departmental Greek play\, organised and run by students and performed at UCL’s Bloomsbury Theatre every year. In 2021\, The production as well as accompanying material will at least be partly online (with further details to follow in the autumn). You will listen to one 30 min long taster lecture by Dr Antony Makrinos\, providing you with a real flavour of what studying the Ancient World and Classics at the university level is like. You will also have the chance to meet (virtually) current undergraduates and ask them questions about their experience at UCL.\n\nTo register\, please follow this link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ucl-classics-and-ancient-world-taster-day-ii-2020-tickets-130784478897

SUMMARY:Training Days at Warwick School
DESCRIPTION:From David Stephenson…\n\n\n\nI am arranging for three events to happen\, live if permissible and remote if not\, at Warwick School. Two of them are geared around supporting pupils preparing for public examinations but\, given the lack thereof this Summer\, will be more generally focused on how we support our students. (As opposed to spending some of it reviewing and discussing scripts.) There is a chance the Hellenic Bookservice will be selling their wares at these.\n\n\n\nMon Jan 11th – new ICT from lockdown (am) / new Latin courses (pm): for the morning I am hoping to arrange various breakout options to look at new ICT which has been used during lockdown but which can now enhance live teaching too. You are most welcome to come to this without offering anything but I invite anyone who has mastered a particular piece of new ICT – no matter how left-field – which they think will continue to be worth using live\, to come and talk about it in a breakout group. Absolutely not high-falluting and unrealistically advanced – just bottom line key uses of anything you have cracked these past months. The Warwick classicists will offer a couple too\, of course! For example\, one member of my department has spent a lot of time using Peardeck. In the afternoon we will have presentations by i) Will Griffifths from Hands Up Education on the new “Suburani” course\, ii) Katherine Radice\, Head of Classics at the Stephen Perse School in Cambridge\, on her new “De Romanis” course\, and iii) someone from CSCP will speak about their latest developments and resources.\n\n\n\nFri Jan 29th – Greek GCSE and GCE (led by John Taylor): ideas around ensuring that our candidates are properly and thoroughly prepared and stretched\, certainly to include specific suggestions of converting 8 to 9 / A to A* (rather harder for Greek than for Latin\, I imagine many in the fortunate position of teaching both would agree!) I should think that John needs no introduction with his many Greek textbook publications and extensive experience in the examining of Greek. He has regularly addressed groups on them for OCR and Keynote Education.\n\n\n\nMon Feb 8th – Class. Civ. GCSE (am) and GCE (pm) (led by Caroline Bristow): on what is needed for the exam but also classroom teaching focused. We would likely work through elements of the specification (source work\, essay technique\, use of scholarship etc.) and look at ideas for teaching them in detail. Caroline is now Director of CSCP but was previously a Classics subject officer for OCR and was heavily involved in the production of the current GCSE and GCE specifications. She has regularly addressed groups on them for OCR.\n\n\n\nI will need to ask for a nominal contribution towards this to cover the speakers’ and catering costs. I do not envisage more than £40-50 per school represented (send as many as you like) for the Greek and ICT/new courses day (unless your school is offering an ICT breakout in which case it’s free)\, and £100 for the Class. Civ. one. This would include a hot and cold buffet lunch as well as refreshments at various points in the day – I’m not kidding when I say our caterers are really rather good at catering for events like this! If the rules force us to run remotely instead\, the costs will reduce significantly.\n\n\n\nIf you are interested in any or all of these training days\, please email me on d.stephenson@warwickschool.org and indicate which one(s). Please also let me know if you do not want to come (all the way) to Warwick for a live affair but would be interested in attending a remote one. Please would you let me know by the beginning of November\, at which point I will produce the exact programme for each day after inviting input from those concerned.\n\n\n\nI look forward to hearing from all who are interested. Please do tell me if you would like to be removed from any future mailings.\n\n\n\nYours sincerely\, David Stephenson.
