- Synopsis
- This book functions as a toolbox for preservice and veteran teachers, as well as teacher educators and professors who believe in and want to promote civic education in their classrooms. The book is comprised of eight methods. These methods focus on information location, evaluation and activation, dialogue in the classroom, understandings of discourse in popular culture and policymaking, understanding of the role of STEM disciplines in democracy, understandings of how the political process can provide meaning, new visions of justice in a globalized world, and student leadership and academic writing in the information age. All the methods call for students to create something, a paper, a project or an idea which can aid democracy. The book also outlines how teachers can evaluate these different creations.
