This book is the first in its field. It showcases current and
emerging communicative practices in the teaching and learning of
ancient languages (Latin and Greek) across contemporary education
in the US, the UK, South America and continental Europe. In all
these parts of the globe, communicative approaches are increasingly
being accepted as showing benefits for learners in school,
university and college classrooms, as well as at specialist
conferences which allow for total immersion in an ancient language.
These approaches are characterised by interaction with others using
the ancient language. They may include various means and modalities
such as face-to-face conversations and written communication. The
ultimate aim is to optimise the facility to read such languages
with comprehension and engagement. The examples showcased in this
volume provide readers with a vital survey of the most current
issues in communicative language teaching, helping them to explore
and consider adoption of a wider range of pedagogical practices,
and encouraging them to develop tools to promote engagement and
retention of a wider variety of students than currently find
ancient languages accessible. Both new and experienced teachers and
learners can build on the experiences and ideas in this volume to
explore the value of these approaches in their own classrooms.
