From the AIRS Milestone Document
Led by Rachel Heydon (Western Ontario), concepts from Heydon’s past work on intergenerational art will be translated to intergenerational singing activities. Three interrelated areas will be examined: intergenerational interaction, opportunities for social and content learning, and the process of creating learning opportunities, that is, curriculum development (Heydon); aspects of curriculum including singing processes and outcomes and the role of singing in reminiscence (Beynon); and wellness and engagement outcomes (O’Neill). The group will develop a handbook such that programs can be instituted in homes for seniors as well as within the family or other institutional contexts. Working initially in London, Ontario, the program developed will be further piloted in Seattle and Ottawa (Gick), and possibly then beyond.
