If anyone is interested, there was an email today on the Latin Study list announcing the start of a new study group. This group is starting in October and will be using Wheelock as the primary text. The schedule and other information is here. Below is the text from the email. In addition to all the good advice and links found on that site everyone embarking on independent or even instructor-led latin learning should read Dowling’s method. Dowling offers some old-school advice that, I think, compliments Wheelock nicely.

Hic incipit feliciter another section of Atrium Latin, using Wheelock’s
Latin Grammar. This group will be known as Atrium Latin Prometheus.

If you are interested in joining the group, please go to the general info
page for Atrium Latin:

http://www.atrium-media.com/latin/atriumlatin.htm

Please read through that page, along with the other links on the page, to
find out how everything works, especially how to format your answers,
described in painful detail at:

http://www.atrium-media.com/atriumlatin/formatting.html

It is also to be stressed that if you do not subscribe to the LatinStudy
list, you will not see the collations and will fill my box with queries
about not getting them, which I will eventually ignore. Semi-related to
this, you should also make any adjustments to an spam filters you have as
are necessary to get mail from both me and the LatinStudy list. (It sounds
harsh, but is, alas, based on experiences I’ve had with previous courses).

This group will be working at roughly a chapter-every-two-weeks pace. The
schedule for the next few weeks is posted at:

http://www.atrium-media.com/atriumlatin/prometheus.html

As you will see for the schedule for the the first assignment is due October
13th; on October 14th I’ll send out the collation of everyone’s answers and
the link template for the next assignment. The link for the first assignment
is at:

Please note that you must use the following as the subject line when you
send in your assignment:

Atrium Latin Prometheus

If you have any questions arising from the lesson, you can ask onlist or ask
me personally at dmeadows@idirect.com

P.S. This is being posted to the Latin Study list … if you’ve contacted me
offlist about joining the course, you’ll probably get another.
