Title: How To Wear a Toga
Body: From http://blogs.getty.edu/iris/how-to-wear-a-toga-the-ancient-roman-way How to Wear a Toga the Ancient Roman Way By Annelisa Stephan November 9, 2011 In ancient Rome, togas were no laughing matter. They were the fashion must-have for all male citizens, but men hated them: they were heavy, made your left arm as useful as a T. Rex’s, and required a team of highly trained slaves to put on and take off. Also, they were made of wool, which was great for preventing dreaded slippage, but not so great for Mediterranean summers in the pre-antiperspirant era.

Title: Students Learn Latin through Virtual Role-Playing Game
Body: From http://mindshift.kqed.org/2011/11/can-an-online-game-crack-the-code-to-language-learning Can an Online Game Crack the Code to Language Learning? by Tina Barseghian November 10, 2011 What can possibly get kids excited to learn a dead language? This was the challenge for Latin teacher Kevin Ballestrini. Ballestrini has turned his introductory Latin class at Connecticut’s Norwich Free Academy into an alternate reality. The students’ job: to save the world by joining a shadowy organization on a quest to find the Lapis Saeculōrum that was part of an Ancient Roman society. “It’s a mix of a role-playing game and an alternate reality game,” Ballestrini says. Students play the role of Romans in a reconstruction of ancient Pompeii (or ancient Rome) and have to learn to think, act, create and write like a Roman in order to win the game. And those are the same goals of any introductory Latin course. Using an online portal, student teams direct their character in Latin to find mysterious inscriptions on stones and solve mysteries. In its second year, the game is now being run in 30 classrooms across the country and can be done with as little tech as pen and paper or as fully tech integrated as mobile phones and a full Web site.
