Title: Catullus and Horace Online Graduate Class This Summer
Body: The Department of Classical Studies at UNC Greensboro will be offering a graduate course online this summer: Latin 601: Lyric Poetry Taught by Hugh Parker, Ph.D. July 11-July 29 1 – 3:30 pm EDT, M-F This three-week course will be taught in real time (synchronously). The program that we will be using to communicate is called Elluminate. It’s a web-based program, and there is nothing that students need to buy or download. All you will need to have is a computer and a headset with a microphone (the course is strictly audio, so you can wear whatever your want to class). The focus of LAT 601 will be Catullus and Horace. We’ll read selections from the first 60 or so poems of Catullus and from Horace’s Odes; we’ll spend about a week and half on each author. This course is being offered to the students in our M.Ed. in Latin program and is an ideal course for Latin teachers. You don’t need to be enrolled in the M.Ed. program to take the course. The only requirements are a bachelor’s degree (sorry, university regulations will not allow us to admit undergraduates to this class) and permission of the instructor, which is easily obtained. This class is meant to be an introduction to the poetry of Catullus and Horace; no previous experience with lyric poetry, Catullus, or Horace is necessary. We will certainly be discussing the poems that we read as works of literature, but the primary purpose of the course will be to improve everyone’s Latin, and so in addition to talking about the literary qualities of the poetry, we’ll be discussing and reviewing grammar as needed. As far as books for the course go, any text of Horace’s Odes will be fine. A good one for a class of this sort is Daniel Garrison, Horace: Epodes and Odes, University of Oklahoma Press (ISBN: 0806130571). For Catullus, there is so much disagreement on the text of Catullus, it's best that we all used the same book, Kenneth Quinn, Catullus. The Poems, Bristol Classical Press (ISBN: 1853994979). If you have any questions about the class, please contact Dr. Parker at hcparker at uncg dot edu or (336) 334-5703. He will be happy to help in any way he can. Hugh Parker is an Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Classical Studies, and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, where he teaches Latin, Greek, and classical civilization courses. His chief interests in Classics are Latin poetry, Silver Latin literature, and medieval Latin. When not worrying about Latin, his chief interests are European and American literature, playing the banjo in a spectacularly inexpert way, and cocker spaniels.

Title: REEI Professional Development Grant for K-12 Russian Teachers in Summer 2011
Body: REEI Professional Development Grant for K-12 Russian Teachers in Summer 2011 Offered by the Indiana University Russian and East European Institute (REEI), this grant will enable a non-native speaker or heritage speaker of Russian who currently teaches Russian in a US-based K-12 school to enhance his/her facility in Russian and to consult with leading instructors of Russian language on questions of Russian language pedagogy through participation in a four-week program of intensive Russian language study at the Indiana University Summer Workshop in Slavic, East European, and Central Asian Languages (SWSEEL) from June 17 through July 15, 2011. The $3500 grant will cover 5-credits tuition and all mandatory fees, with the remainder (approximately $1750) available for living and travel expenses. As a condition of the grant, the recipient must attend four weeks of Russian classes at SWSEEL, participate in the two-day SWSEEL methodology workshop on June 24-25, and produce at least one lesson plan for high school Russian classes to be published on the REEI website. SWSEEL provides intensive instruction in Russian language at all levels in a multi-aspectual program that integrates work on the four skills of speaking, listening, reading, and writing while also focusing on the development of grammar and vocabulary. Students at most levels undertake a comprehensive language development course as well as individual courses in phonetics, conversation, and listening comprehension. At the topmost levels, students take a comprehensive language course and an additional course in contemporary Russian media. Class work in Russian is supplemented with a broad array of extra-curricular activities that provide additional cultural and linguistic enrichment. To apply, please send to Mark Trotter at martrott at Indiana dot edu a statement of approximately 250 words that includes a description of the Russian program in which you teach and provides detail on your training and goals as a teacher of Russian language. Preference will be given to applications from teachers who have never received support from Indiana University for study of Russian at SWSEEL. For more information on SWSEEL, go to: http://www.indiana.edu/~swseel/index.shtml Mark Trotter Assistant Director/Outreach Coordinator Russian and East European Institute Indiana University Ballantine Hall 565 1020 E.

Title: REEI Professional Development Grant for K-12 Russian Teachers in Summer 2011
Body: REEI Professional Development Grant for K-12 Russian Teachers in Summer 2011 Offered by the Indiana University Russian and East European Institute (REEI), this grant will enable a non-native speaker or heritage speaker of Russian who currently teaches Russian in a US-based K-12 school to enhance his/her facility in Russian and to consult with leading instructors of Russian language on questions of Russian language pedagogy through participation in a four-week program of intensive Russian language study at the Indiana University Summer Workshop in Slavic, East European, and Central Asian Languages (SWSEEL) from June 17 through July 15, 2011. The $3500 grant will cover 5-credits tuition and all mandatory fees, with the remainder (approximately $1750) available for living and travel expenses. As a condition of the grant, the recipient must attend four weeks of Russian classes at SWSEEL, participate in the two-day SWSEEL methodology workshop on June 24-25, and produce at least one lesson plan for high school Russian classes to be published on the REEI website. SWSEEL provides intensive instruction in Russian language at all levels in a multi-aspectual program that integrates work on the four skills of speaking, listening, reading, and writing while also focusing on the development of grammar and vocabulary. Students at most levels undertake a comprehensive language development course as well as individual courses in phonetics, conversation, and listening comprehension. At the topmost levels, students take a comprehensive language course and an additional course in contemporary Russian media. Class work in Russian is supplemented with a broad array of extra-curricular activities that provide additional cultural and linguistic enrichment. To apply, please send to Mark Trotter at martrott at Indiana dot edu a statement of approximately 250 words that includes a description of the Russian program in which you teach and provides detail on your training and goals as a teacher of Russian language. Preference will be given to applications from teachers who have never received support from Indiana University for study of Russian at SWSEEL.
