Publisher's Summary

In this hour, Eric Booth is one of America's leading teaching artists and trainer of teaching artists. He's also the author of The Music Teaching Artist's Bible: Becoming a Virtuoso Educator. He talks to Steve Paulson about the current state of arts education in American schools and shares his thoughts on how to engage children through arts education.

Then, Michael Doucet is the founder of the pioneering and Grammy Award-winning Cajun band BeauSoleil. The band recently released its 29th album, Alligator Purse. Doucet also has an extensive background in arts education. He talks to Steve Paulson about educating people about Cajun culture through Cajun music. We also hear some music from BeauSoleil's new album.

Next, Katie Salen is a game designer, interactive designer, animator, and design educator. She's also the editor of The Ecology of Games: Connecting Youth, Games, and Learning. Salen talks to Anne Strainchamps about what children can learn from designing and playing games.

Finally, David Gilmour is a Canadian film critic and novelist. He's also the author of a memoir, The Film Club. In the book, Gilmour writes about his decision to let his son, Jesse, drop out of school, provided he agreed to watch three movies a week with his father.
