Colin Shelton’s scholarly work applies insights from Second Language Acquisition to the teaching and learning of ancient languages. He has also published work about ancient Roman etymologizing and the semantics of Latin wordplay. His current projects focus on developing teaching materials to promote extensive reading in Latin and Ancient Greek, and to help ancient language teachers incorporate communicative approaches and multiliteracies teaching more easily into their repertoire. Shelton is Language Program Coordinator in the Department of Classics at the University of Chicago.
