Since starting at ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ in 2013, she has taught introductory and advanced Latin, large survey courses for majors and non-majors in ancient civilization, thematic courses on ancient food and upper-level seminars focused on archaeology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While her passion is classical archaeology, Laura has expressed that her experiences with students majoring in other disciplines or coming to ÐÓ°ÉÔ­´´ as mature students with minimal knowledge in Classics often make for the most rewarding interactions. Her teaching incorporates multi-media both in lectures and written assignments to help students practice the skills of research, writing, and critical analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laura was the chosen recipient for the 2018 <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/awards-and-grants\/internal-awards\/new-faculty-excellence-in-teaching-award\/\">New Faculty Excellence in Teaching Award<\/a> for her commitment to engage students&#8217; imaginations and creativity in all of her courses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":42545,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"cu_people_first_name":"Laura","cu_people_last_name":"Banducci","cu_people_initials":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_people_type":[23],"cu_people_expertise":[],"class_list":["post-38658","cu_people","type-cu_people","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cu_people_type-teachingawardwinners-b"],"acf":{"cu_people_job_title":"","cu_people_degree":"","cu_building":false,"cu_people_office_num":"","cu_people_pronoun":"none","cu_people_designation":"","cu_people_email":"","cu_people_phone":"","cu_people_phone_ext":"","cu_people_linkedin":"","cu_people_bluesky":"","cu_people_twitter":"","cu_people_instagram":"","cu_people_facebook":"","cu_people_website":"","cu_people_orcid":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/38658","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_people"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/38658\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":43964,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/38658\/revisions\/43964"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42545"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38658"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_people_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people_type?post=38658"},{"taxonomy":"cu_people_expertise","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/tls\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people_expertise?post=38658"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
