This course offers an introduction to some of the most important early literature of the western canon and focuses on the epics of Homer, a selection of plays from the high point of Athenian tragedy, and some prose writers of the fifth century BC. In exploring these works and their genres, we will also discover aspects of Greek social, religious, and political culture, as these texts were meant to be performed in front of an audience who shared common beliefs and social structures.

In this course, students become language educators. Designed for students who serve as Teaching Assistants and Tutors for foreign language classes at CSBSJU (or who aspire to be future language educators at CSBSJU or beyond), Languages 380 introduces students to various pedagogies of language instruction and helps them to envision and successfully carry out associated learning activities, lesson plans, and assessment. Teaching for the first time can be intimidating. This course helps students to be effective at teaching language and enjoy it. While instruction in the practicum will be in English, the lesson plans students create will be for the target language they intend to teach.
