Back to the Future: Teaching Latin in Cyberspace
by Sue Shelton and Kay Ruhle, The Florida Virtual High School

Shelton and Ruhle describe their techniques for teaching Latin in a virtual environment via the Internet. They use virtual characters to introduce students to new material. The Florida Virtual School’s education philosophy is “any time, any place, any path learning” and is the basis of their methods for teaching Latin online. Examples of virtual assignments, students’ work, a grading rubric, and the online environment in which students learn are provided.
