Forward to the Past

Introduction

Forward to the Past was developed under the auspices of the Academia Latina, University of Pretoria (UP) as part of a cross-cultural enrichment program project. The course material was written by Mrs. Rolien Bührmann, a classicist and English teacher. The material was supervised by Mrs. Corrie Schumann from the Academia Latina and edited by Prof. Jo-Marie Claassen from the Department of Antique Studies of the University of Stellenbosch. A teacher's guide is in the process of being written.

The course aims at empowering learners by enriching their command of the English language through cross-cultural and linguistic studies based on the Roman world. The level of the course is adaptable within the range of grades 7 to 10, depending on learners' command of English.
