Subjects' page

• Most importantly: completion of Cornell Notes. For this, you should identify important material in the body of notes, extract the keywords, key concepts, links to other material, relevant scholarship etc, and put it in the Cornell Column. Finally, they should use the material in the notes section and column to create their own question which they can then answer in the paragraph below. Equally, questions or points can be found in PPTs. Best practice is to consider and practice articulating how you would want to use the material in an exam context.

• Massolit videos are sometimes assigned as homework, but there are plenty of other Massolit lecture series which would be very useful for students to watch and take notes on. One Cornell Page per Massolit series would be good. 

• Thirdly, Omnibus magazine articles make excellent extra reading. They are accessible, very relevant to our modules, and introduce students to a wider range of material and scholarly opinions. Again, one Cornell Page per article would work.

• Fourthly, wider engagement with Youtube channels, academic articles on sites like Academia.edu, and Classics related podcasts. I regularly give recommendations for channels to follow and podcasts to engage with.

• Finally, my bookshelves in C015 store a number of texts relevant to the course and  beyond. Students are welcome to read them when the room is free.
