Starting Off Right in Latin - Tips

Salve!

Welcome to the Latin course! As you begin, please look over the following:

Tips for success

  • Read every word of everything. Often times confusion stems from not having read the content or activities carefully.
  • Take hand-written notes. Studies show that students who take hand-written notes learn more thoroughly.
  • Complete all of the embedded activities. The embedded activities found throughout this course are important for checking your comprehension of the content.
  • Review the extra learning resources. Throughout the course, your instructor may provide extra resources. The expectation is that you review these resources, too.

Modules and Naming Conventions

The course is made up of a series of modules (think chapters in a textbook). Each module has a name and an abbreviation, which will be used in the title of lessons and assignments. So, for example, you will see:

  • Caesar: Life and Times (CLT) = Module Title with abbreviation in parenthesis
    • Lesson naming:
      • CLT: Overview
