The internet takes us, with the stroke of a key, into the world and its many cultures. We have access to an unimaginable amount of information and varied ways of learning. On these pages, you will find vocabulary and grammar games and drills--even practice tests--to help you develop your skill as a Latinist. You will find a list of website links that you will find helpful as you work on research projects. There are some sites here just for fun, just because you might find them interesting, like games and how to make a toga! Be aware that not everything that is on the internet is reliable information. Websites are only one form of research. What you find on the web should always accompany information you find in books and periodicals. As with all research, please show, in your work, where you have obtained information by placing the website address in parentheses with the information you use from it. |
