Seizing the Civic Education Moment
Tripodo, Andrew; Pondiscio, Robert
Educational Leadership, v75 n3 p20-25 Nov 2017
The current political climate has created urgency around civic education. The authors argue that educators can best seize the moment by infusing authentic activities and experiences in content studies. They provide an example of one such hybrid instructional model from Democracy Prep Public Schools.
