Mission Statement
The mission of the Hudson Music Teacher Integration Program, or T.I.P., is to further and enhance drum education by encouraging the use of New Media by drum educators (in both private and public settings) and by offering suggestions and methods for incorporating these tools into their teaching practices.
This will be done through the development of Teacher’s Guides for new media, as well as print and electronic distribution of T.I.P. support materials, and interactive online participation from T.I.P. members and the drumming community at large.
An important component will be the formation of and input from a T.I.P. Advisory Board, whose members will be chosen from a wide variety of musical styles, geographic locations, and teaching practices.
