Teaching citizenship
Using 'active learning' techniques and
strategies leads to greater involvement of young people in
citizenship.
- student voice
- role play, drama and simulation
- visiting 'witnesses' and experts
- directed self-study and research
- communication with people and agencies in the
'real' world
- work in the community
- collaborative projects.
Some schools are embracing a citizenship ethos through greater
learner responsibility. These schools have effective schools
councils, student consultation and representation, shadowing,
specialist student training, peer work, whole school special focus
days, local and national student elections, involvement with other
schools and links with the wider community including their local
councilors and MP.
