How and what did students learn in the Middle Ages? Did they have a syllabus? Where did they obtain their books? What exactly did they read, and how did they read it? Did they pull all-nighters before exams? "Getting Medieval" will ask twenty-first century students to take a look at their medieval predecessors with an eye to the aspects they all do and don't share. The course highlight will be a recreation of a medieval classroom.
