Description
Strong democracy requires strong citizens. The Center for Civic Life at Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania presents Democracy Lab, an exciting new resource for promoting civic engagement, developing student civic leadership and transforming campus climate. Through its developmentally sequenced set of learning experiences for classroom and co-curricular use Democracy Lab addresses the widely recognized failure of formal schooling to develop strong citizens at both the high school and college level. Democracy Lab is a convenient and flexible way to engage students in public affairs and to help them acquire active citizenship skills while enhancing their capacity to meet rigorous academic standards.
Responding to the growing interest in curriculum-based civic education, Democracy Lab helps you integrate a powerful civic education module into a wide variety of existing courses without starting over from the ground up. To carry civic education a step further on your campus, Democracy Lab trains and mentors student leadership teams for local citizen politics.
