What Constitutes Effective Civic Education?


What Constitutes Effective Civic Education?  An Invitation to our Readers.
As we work toward future issues of the Journal of Educational Controversy, we have been thinking about an issue on what constitutes an adequate and effective civic education for students growing up in a new world of social media.    In addition to the development of rational deliberative arguments, what do students need to understand about things like coded language, gaslighting, the role of historical narratives, etc., in their civic education.  We invite our readers to contribute to the structuring of our controversial scenario for the issue.  What must our students know and understand?
