Promoting
Civic Education
This
analysis provides evidence that can serve to enlist individuals and
organizations promoting civic education in the task of fostering
adolescents’ 21st Century skills and competencies. Educators who
wish to strengthen their programs should focus on enhancing
interactive discussion-based teaching methods with a strong content
focus as part of every student’s educational experience. This will
benefit both the individual’s preparation as a citizen grounded in
knowledge of democratic principles and also the individual’s
preparation as a worker who understands economic processes and can
collaborate with a diverse range of co-workers. (2009: 9)
