The
Ancient
World

Before you begin your work each week, go to the class blog and read the specific questions posted there to guide you through the sources.

Week 1: Read the entire Hellenistic Science source, and just the Preface, Book 1 and Book 2 in the Vitrivius source. Finally, visit the Archimedes website and examine his inventions. Then go back to the class blog, reread the questions posted there, and post your response in the blog. Then read someone else's posting and offer a comment that adds value to what they've written.

Week 2: Read all the remaining sources (some on science, some on male/female relationships), then go back to the class blog, reread the questions posted there, and post your response in the blog. Then read someone else's posting and offer a comment that adds value to what they've written.
