A personal journal about teaching the Bible and ancient Near Eastern history/theology/religion/archaeology to university students in New Orleans, and whatever else happens to be on my mind.

4 New Student Movies
My students made four new Quicktime movies which can be seen here. I recommend Rashomon Resurrection and 8 Cubit, though all are pretty good. The students had a great time making these movies, at least they preferred this activity to hearing my voice lecture. I also gave each section an exam to test their knowledge on this material, that is to say I wanted to document that they were learning something while they prepared for and made these movies. The results were excellent, and reaffirmed my belief that this is a great way to get the students to learn something, especially at the end of the semester when everyone is drained.
