Applied for a Class

  • July 26, 2011 7:43 am

I’ve thought about it for quite some time: It would be fun to try teaching a class. And I love mythology. The result? Yesterday I applied for student teaching a class called Norse Mythology. We’ve had Roman Mythology, Greek Mythology, and some other random mythologies from around the world, but I still haven’t seen anyone teaching about the highly interesting myths from the Nordic countries where I come from.

You can find the link to the class from this website (just go to “Classrooms” in the right hand menu). It’s still not totally finished (unfortunately), but you will get a fairly good view on what the class will look like. It will be a one term class with five lessons. There will be four assignments and one final exam. The topics covered will include: the Eddas, the Creation Story, Odin, Frigg, Thor and Loki. I am trying to make both the lessons and assignments interesting and fun, still kind of working on that. I will also add a class forum shortly, within this week is my time plan.

Hoping to see you in my class this fall term!
