Program Notes from the July 22, 2001 Concert

This site is an ongoing work in progress of Community of learners 2 of the 2001 Governor's Institute for Arts Educators. The thrust of this community is twofold. One is to create a community web page idea bank of strategies for addressing historical and cultural contexts in a content area's curriculum. The other is to create and publish a collection of planned instruction examples designed by the participants.

Members work independently or with others to complete the learning activities. These activities are intended to prepare members to create content to contribute to a community web page of strategies and methods, resources located, processes for using the resources, and an outline of and reflections on how to involve students in the uses of these resources to demonstrate achievement of the standards statements under PA Arts Standards Category 9.2, Historical and Cultural Contexts. Individual instructional plans will provide specific examples of process and use some of the resources located.
