| | | Starring Dante This essay offers an example of a guiding thread in my own research on and teaching of Dante's Commedia. Specifically, I will follow a strand that leads us from Dante's encounter with the "bella scola" of classical poets in Inferno Canto 4, through a key scene in the Purgatorio where Dante and his guide Virgil meet the late classical poet Statius, to the remarkable six-canto suite in the Heaven of the Stars, sign of Gemini, in which Dante-poet has Dante-character undergo a series doctrinal tests on the theological virtues. His successful response to the challenges posed by the apostles... | | The Development of Learning Videos on PowToon-based Work and Energy Topics to Support Flipped Classroom Learning The goal of this investigation was to define the validity and the interest of students towards developing PowToon-based learning videos to support flipped classroom strategies. This research is a Research and Development with ADDIE development model which consists of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation.

Although in the past VR was mostly used for gaming purposes, in recent years it has become increasingly popular in numerous areas, including education. In the field of language learning, little is still known about the development and use of open VR materials as well as their affordances and constraints. The current project addresses this gap by illustrating the practical steps taken to develop an open education platform, by investigating... | | Distinguishing (the) Right from Wrong: Knowledge, Curriculum, and Intellectual Responsibility Given the political Right's attacks on U.S. academics as too liberal, we broach questions about knowledge production and curriculum development.

We end by calling... | | |
