    The fifth edition of this innovative approach to English Medieval Studies offers an expanded corpus of Old and Middle English texts. The selection from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle now includes entries recording Viking raids during the second half of the ninth century. Readers and students interested in Middle English lyrics will find two additional poems which demonstrate clearly that medieval literary production was not exclusively concerned with texts mirroring conservative moral standards. Chaucer’s outstanding oeuvre is now represented by the full text of the “Reeve’s Tale” and selections from the “General Prologue”. While the introductory grammar has been retained with only some minor changes, the explanatory notes to the texts have been revised and substantially expanded. The glossaries have been updated and the bibliography includes additional entries. This expanded and revised guide to English Medieval Studies will introduce beginning students to the diverse and fascinating world of Medieval English with its gradually evolving literary standards and its almost unparalleled wealth of highly developed literary genres.

    If school closures and social-distancing experiences during the Covid-19 pandemic impeded children’s skill development, they may leave a lasting legacy in human capital. To understand the pandemic’s effects on school children, this paper combines a review of the emerging international literature with new evidence from German longitudinal time-use surveys. Based on the conceptual framework of an education production function, we cover evidence on child, parent, and school inputs and students’ cognitive and socio-emotional development. The German panel evidence shows that children’s learning time decreased severely during the first school closures, particularly for low-achieving students, and increased only slightly one year later. In a value-added model, learning time increases with daily online class instruction, but not with other school activities. The review shows substantial losses in cognitive skills on achievement tests, particularly for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Socio-emotional wellbeing also declined in the short run. Structural models and reduced-form projections suggest that unless remediated, the school closures will persistently reduce skill development, lifetime income, and economic growth and increase inequality.

    University students have been particularly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We present results from the first wave of the Global COVID-19 Student Survey, which was administered at 28 universities in the United States, Spain, Australia, Sweden, Austria, Italy, and Mexico between April and October 2020. The survey addresses contemporaneous outcomes and future expectations regarding three fundamental aspects of students' lives in the pandemic: the labor market, education, and health. We document the differential responses of students as a function of their country of residence, parental income, gender, and for the US their race.

    Studierende der lateinischen Philologie benötigen für die Lektüre römischer Dichter heute mehr denn je einen Kommentar, der sie sowohl bei sprachlichen, stilistischen und metrischen Fragen als auch auf dem Gebiet der Realien nicht im Stich lässt. Dies leistet der Kommentar zu Vers 397‒814 von Ovids „Remedia amoris“ von Christina Meckelnborg, der schon bald nach seinem Erscheinen 1982 als „unentbehrliches Hilfsmittel“ (N. Holzberg) bezeichnet wurde und der hier in einer überarbeiteten Neuauflage präsentiert wird. Er soll jedoch nicht nur die Lektüre dieses „bedeutenden Stücks Weltliteratur“ (N. Holzberg) erleichtern, sondern auch mit der augusteischen Dichtersprache vertraut machen. Today more than ever, students of Latin philology need a commentary for the reading of Roman poets that will not let them down in linguistic, stylistic and metrical questions as well as in the field of realia. This is the purpose of Christina Meckelnborg's commentary on verses 397-814 of Ovid's “Remedia amoris”, which was described as an “indispensable aid” (cf. N. Holzberg) soon after its publication in 1982 and which is presented here in a revised new edition. However, it is not only intended to facilitate the reading of this “significant piece of world literature” (cf. N. Holzberg), but also to familiarise the reader with the Augustan poetic language.

    This report focuses on the COVID-19 pandemic in the Kalamazoo Public Schools District in Kalamazoo, Michigan, which closed its doors to students from mid-March 2020 to June 2021. During this time, instruction transitioned from face-to-face to virtual, with students having three options for virtual instruction. In addition to individual KPS student data, the study looks at the NWEA national sample as presented in several publications and technical appendices. The study addresses three basic questions, as well as examining students' race/ethnicity and poverty status, summer learning loss to determine the change in achievement gains, and attendance rates as an example of students not receiving face-to-face instruction. The first question asks whether the pandemic, which began in March of 2020, adversely affected student enrollment. The second question examines how achievement gains based on the NWEA math tests during the 2020-2021 pandemic school year compared to prepandemic and post-school-closure trends. The third question examines the variability of NWEA math test scores during the pandemic compared to the school years before and after the 2020-2021 pandemic school year. We find that student enrollment declined during and after the pandemic school year for at least two years, which is more than appears to be the case in all but the first few years of the century. In addressing the second question, we found that achievement gains rebounded after KPS schools opened, although achievement gains are not as high as in the prepandemic school year. It also appears that the lower grades were more resilient than the upper grades during this period. Regarding the third question, we found that test scores were more variable at the low end of the distribution than at the high end and that variability increased in the year following school closure.
