Un quartier historique : une visite audioguidée avec Bill Ayers

Aperçu
This self-guided audio tour begins at the Laboratory Schools founded by John Dewey, and winds through the University of Chicago. Along the way, walkers will encounter world-renowned architects and Nobel Laureates, robber barons and artists, the DuSable Museum of African American History and the birthplace of the Atomic Age.

In storied Washington Park, there may be soccer or cricket matches underway, bicycle rallies or softball games in progress, waves of runners or families gathered for a picnic. From there it's a short stroll to the home of President Barack Obama and his family.

You guide is William Ayers, a former Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar. He has written extensively about social justice and democracy, education and the cultural contexts of schooling, and teaching as an essentially intellectual, ethical, and political enterprise. The tour is ready whenever you are, simply download it onto the VoiceMap app and select Start Tour.

I loved having the app so that the talking started at the correct spot. Mr Ayers personal stories really enhanced the experience. I wish there was more talking during the longer stretches of walking:

It would help to know the distance of the trip. I am 82. three miles was too much.. Also too much down time. There is much to be said about Washington Park and U of C. And maybe the boulevard system
