Summer Institutes for Teachers:

The Center for American Music, part of the University of Pittsburgh' s Library System, has offered NEH Summer Institute for Teachers biennially.  During these Institutes, we expanded upon the materials and concepts of the resource guide, exploring topics in America music through the lens of music from two distinct yet complementary angles. First, analysis of popular songs as primary source documents offers fresh material to enrich the understanding of social studies and language arts. Second, field trips and authentic performances offer a uniquely engaging evocation of an historical context. Aided by historians, musicologists, and teaching performers, participants strengthen their skills as historians and develop innovative strategies to integrate music into their teaching. We have stopped hosting our Summer Institues for the time being, but hope to resume them at some point in the future, pending NEH Funding
