Themes such as the impact of national education policies, enrolment, assessment, accessibility and inclusion are discussed. The teaching of Classics has wide variations in practices and purposes from one education system to another- in some, the teaching of Classics continues to be focused on the mastery of language and grammar; in others, active use of the ancient languages is growing in popularity; and yet in others, the focus is shifting towards the study of the languages and civilisations in translation. Presenting an overview survey and comparison of practices across the world, this book is essential reading for instructors and teaching training courses in the world of classical education.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46643226869918,"sku":"UBD-9781350427617","price":61.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781350427617.jpg?v=1774484721","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781350427617","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
