摘要：Just as writers and artists have reimagined and reworked episodes from Vergil's Aeneid for new audiences, this essay encourages teachers to take advantage of digital technologies to ask their students to participate in the ongoing community of readers and writers who have been inspired by Greek and Latin works, to become co-creators of new versions of ancient works, and to share these works through various media for broader audiences. This essay argues that multiliteracy approaches to language acquisition, intercultural literacy, and critical reflection are powerful tools for leading our students to linguistic, cultural, and critical competence. After presenting an introduction to the theory of multiple literacies, this study examines student multimedia reworkings of the Aeneid and their reflective essays from an undergraduate, advanced-level Latin course, The Age of Augustus, that focused on Vergil's Aeneid. Finally, as a case study one particular student reworking will be analyzed in greater detail to explore the impact that such a project has on student language proficiency and on attention to genre, purpose, and intercultural literacy
