RCC PostDoc Seminar: Group dynamics in the Classics

This activity will focus on one aspect of Antiquity, Greek sanctuaries. Attendants will work in groups with different materials and will learn how scholars in this field lead with the available sources – archaeology, literature, epigraphy, and numismatics. At the same time, the members of the group will play specific roles. This method will generate an environment of cooperation, discussion and active learning.

Teaching methods have evolved throughout last decades. In order to learn the different possibilities that Innovative Teaching offers, this seminar will explore how each field can provide ideas that can be applied in other areas. In this way, both participants and assistants will improve their knowledge concerning to how to teach and how to create a better environment in the class, in which students play a more dynamic role. These activities will be held mainly by predoc and postdoc fellows of RCC.
