We have utilized a module format to organize the teaching material found on this website.

A module may be organized around a topic (e.g., prostitution, Roman love elegy), a particular work (e.g., Aristophanes’ Lysistrata; the Cnidian Aphrodite), or a particular figure (e.g., Cleopatra; Athena).

Each module is introduced by a brief framing discussion that provides an overview of the material and acquaints the user with its aims. Beyond that, each module contains different categories, including primary sources, secondary sources, multimedia resources, and activities (such as lecture notes, discussion questions, workshops and slideshows). Note that not every module will contain material in all of these categories. 

You can use this template to organize your module. The goal is to create something streamlined and easy for educators to implement in their classrooms. To view some examples, visit the Sample Modules page.

Once you’ve created a sample module, you may submit it via email (deltosproject@gmail.com) to the editorial board for review.
