Seen on Classicists (please send any responses to the folks mentioned in the quoted text, not to rogueclassicism!):
The 2010 annual JACT conference is taking place on Saturday 15th May in Senate House, London. Full details (and a booking form) are available on the new JACT website (www.jact.org), but highlights include:
· A plenary lecture from Prof. Stephen Harrison, ‘Classics in the 21st Century’
· Children’s author, Caroline Lawrence, on ‘The Roman Mysteries: getting younger children interested in the Classics through literature’
· The Presidential Address, given by JACT President, Bettany Hughes
· A number of option groups: on exam board developments, using powerpoint in class teaching, non-specialist classics teaching, resources for Class. Civ., Catullus, and the Olympics.
To register, you need to be a member of JACT. I hope most recipients of this list will already be members, but if you are not already join today and you not only get the benefits of the conference, JACT publications (the Journal of Classics Teaching, and Omnibus as well as online resources), and an increasing range of discounts, but you also help us to support Classics in UK schools. For all further details go to www.jact.org
