1. On the Internet, find quotations on the subject of listening and print two that you especially like.

Possible Strategy: Visit the quotations page at the Website of the International Listening Association (www.listen.org/quotations/quotes.html).

2. The Internet contains audio and video clips of famous speeches. What is the date of the earliest audio recording of a speech by an American president? (Exclude silent films and readings or re-enactments by actors.)

Possible Strategy: Visit the PBS archives of Great American Speeches (www.pbs.org/greatspeeches) and investigate dates of audio clips.
