Familia Romana Essentials Online - Course Instructors
Student Price: $39.95 for a 12-month subscription.
Completely updated on a new and improved platform, Familia Romana Essentials Online offers students and instructors a fully digital Latin learning experience for Pars I of the Lingua Latina series. It can be used independently of, or in conjunction with, additional Lingva Latina print supplements. Familia Romana Essential Online includes the complete Familia Romana text in eBook format, auto-correcting exercises from Exercitia Latina I, audio recordings of the text for listening comprehension practice, flashcard sets for vocabulary practice, a searchable Latin/English glossary that includes all vocabulary from Familia Romana, and more.
Versions of the course:
The course is currently available in two versions, one with classical pronunciaton audio (Familia Romana read by Hans H. Ørberg), and one with ecclesiastical pronunciation audio (Familia Romana read by the faculty of Wyoming Catholic College). Both versions of the course require that students use long vowel marks (macrons) when completing the short answer fill-in-the-blank questions matching Hans H. Ørberg's answer key for Exercitia Latina I and the Pensum activities from Familia Romana. If you prefer that your students not be required to use macrons for the short answer responses please email support@hackettpublishing.com. Versions of the course are available that do not require macrons upon request.
