Prince, a Latin teacher at St. Joseph High School, St. Joseph, Michigan, is the winner of AbleMedia's Bronze Chalice award for his submission of Perseus Power Exercises published on CTCWeb. Here's a great set of exercises to help students bulk up their abilities to sort through and use the mass of information on the Perseus web site. And, there's nothing to buy. These exercises help students learn how to tackle Perseus while using the site to perform feats of research and make discoveries to stay ahead of the field. I am excited that my exercises are on CTCWeb, because of its potential to make ancient Greece and Rome come alive for thousands of students and their teachers across the globe.
Printable worksheets are also available in Adobe Acrobat format.
Prince's Perseus Power Exercises include assignments for students who are new to Perseus and even new to ancient Greek mythology. For more advanced students, Prince provides exercises to expand their knowledge and build research skills. Also Prince furnishes exercises for advanced Latin students studying Vergil's Aeneid to challenge their research skills and expand their knowledge of Vergil's text. For educators, the exercises provide a template for them to build their own exercises to extend their students' skills and knowledge. It helps students expand their knowledge using technology and helps teachers integrate technology into their curricula.
