It turns out that @greekmythcomix.bsky.social is a superlative interviewer, taking on the role of host with aplomb. I could listen to Laura read the phone book, but once you've listened to her interview me about *my* book, you should listen to her read her *own* book! shows.acast.com/you-are-odys...

It's not every day this podcast host publishes a book, so today's episode is a bit of a celebration! Temporarily stepping into Alexandra's interviewer shoes is the inimitable @lejenksbrown.bsky.social, as Alexandra talks about her book 'Gladiators in the Greek World' and her writing process.

Classics friends, a colleague and I are trying to put together a pedagogy panel for CAMWS on working with grad students specifically - if you teach in a grad or post-bac program we'd love more submissions!

While pedagogy panels are a common feature of Classics conferences, most focus on instruction at the K-12 or undergraduate levels, with comparatively little discussion devoted to the way we teach graduate students. Many undergraduate programs operate under the reasonable assumption that their typical student will not seek graduate training, meaning that those who do continue often need dedicated support while they adjust to a new set of duties and expectations. At the same time, recent changes in the higher education landscape have inspired a great deal of reflection on the nature and purpose of graduate training in Classics, with the result that many programs have significantly altered their degree plans. While goals and priorities continue to evolve, numerous factors affect the successful implementation of strategic changes. This panel seeks to bring such ongoing conversations to the level of praxis and investigate how best to meet the needs of today’s graduate students both in the classroom and in the supervision of their developing research and teaching skills.

We seek papers from instructors with recent experience teaching and mentoring graduate students. Papers should be practical in nature and may include such topics as: differential language abilities in graduate classrooms, assignments that introduce professional research/teaching skills, effective preparation for qualifying exams, strategies for fostering independent learning, integrating diverse career preparation into coursework, special considerations for post-bac students, etc., and (if you must) AI in graduate research.
If you are interested in participating in this panel, please send an abstract of approximately 300 words to Dan Leon (dleon@illinois.edu) by Wednesday August 5 at 5:00 PM Central Time.

J'ai trouvé ça à la librairie, mais ce truc cale hyper mal les portes. Du coup je suis obligé de le lire. Disons que la pauvreté en jeux de mots est compensée par son côté super intéressant, bien écrit, et sourcé. Bref, j'ai toujours une porte qui claque moi.

"Utiliser l'Histoire

Hors vanne, je le conseille vivement.

And, once again, I get WHY students cheat on a systemic scale, sure. But that does not mean we should ignore it or enable it, not any more. No amount of futzing with syllabi or assignment design is going to help with this problem, I can promise you. gAI misuse is ruining this generation.
