@geophilologist Even encouraging DH at undergraduate level would be valuable! DH was introduced to me in MA units with @palaeofuturist and @nottinauta in 2019/20, which meant learning valuable DH tools (that I still use as a secondary teacher) & eventually creating the Euripides alignments.
@geophilologist, @farnooshamsian, and @TariqYousef1 are presenting now the paper "Using Alignment to Evaluate Translations of Ancient Greek Literary Texts" at the 1st Annual Conference of Computational Literary Studies in TU Darmstadt @jcls_io

3) On the board is a very simple powerpoint slide. Every lesson is exactly the same layout and structure: a question about what we read, lang analysis and two literacy questions.
@mrs_denglish @FunkyPedagogy @Team_English1 Oh wow! Ancient Greek is a tough one to learn, I’m very impressed! There will be some good cross curriculum links there!
About to sit down for my final practice seminar with #teambowles and feeling a little bit melancholic about the whole thing. Thank you to everyone at @TeachFirst @TeachFirstEM and @BCUHELS for everything you’ve done for all of us trainees.
@MissSidney8@Team_English1 I think with more complex texts spoiling the plot can be to your advantage; students won’t get as distracted by plot points and can really focus on the objective of the lesson, language analysis, or context/intertextual links.
@kyledevans@Team_English1 Mine was Balmoral (green), Lancaster (orange), Caenarvon (purple), Windsor (blue), Buckingham (red), and Sandringham (yellow). We were The Castle School so all of our pastoral houses were named after Royal residences!
How the works of the 14th century poet Geoffrey Chaucer have influenced the English language that we speak today.
Listen to @Bridget_Kendall, @PiersatPenn, @15thcgossipgirl and @RealMandeville discuss all things #Chaucer 🏰
