"By nearly every measure, Americans are less engaged in their
communities and political activity than generations past." So write
the editors of this volume, who survey the current practices and
history of citizenship education in the United States. They argue
that the current period of "creative destruction"-when schools are
closing and opening in response to reform mandates-is an ideal time
to take an in-depth look at how successful strategies and programs
promote civic education and good citizenship. Making Civics Count
offers research-based insights into what diverse students and
teachers know and do as civic actors, and proposes a blueprint for
civic education for a new generation that is both practical and
visionary.
