Jay writes “Managing Information News reported an interesting story about the acclaimed singer Thomas Hampson and his eleven city ‘Song of America’ Tour initiated by the Library of Congress to celebrate creativity across America.
Excerpt:
“Primary goal of the ‘Song of America tour’ is to reach out to young people who might not be familiar with the great depth and variety of American song and history; each stop on the concert tour will include an educational component in which Hampson will interact with students. Additionally, the Library will send its educational outreach staff to each concert city to conduct daylong teacher institutes for local K-12 educators. Invited teachers will learn how to incorporate the Library’s unique online collections into their classrooms to encourage critical thinking skills among their students.”
