By 2027, classrooms will no longer be shaped by textbooks alone—they will be driven by artificial intelligence. From personalized learning paths to AI-driven assessment and real-time feedback, the way students learn is transforming faster than ever before. But what happens if teachers fail to adapt?

Classicists have translated, mistranslated, and retranslated the same ancient poems and stories hundreds of times for thousands of years. Historically, interpretations of ancient texts come from narrow perspectives or agendas of their era, which could influence unintentional or intentional misogyny, eurocentrism, ethnocentrism, and normalization of slavery and other atrocities. Those who possess the power to alter or exclude honest and correct translations come from a variety of sources and backgrounds, and sometimes misalign with the intentions of the original ancient Greek or Latin author. It is important to recognize and appreciate translations for what they are: inherently biased interpretations, and in some cases, retellings of the records of history. Student at Bowdoin College.
