SUMMARY:Untangling the Tally: Barriers to Voting
DESCRIPTION:Elections have changed through the decades\, but one thing has always remained the same: voting is not easy for everyone. For many eligible voters\, it is actually near impossible. Issues of accessibility\, convenience\, transportation\, time constraints\, and a slew of other complications have always plagued Election Day.

SUMMARY:Civic Education in the AI Age
DESCRIPTION:Since the introduction of ChatGPT to the public in late 2022\, there has been no shortage of commentary about how artificial intelligence (AI) technologies will change all aspects of society\, from scientific discovery to employment to education and beyond. The impact of AI on civic education has received considerably less attention. How if at all will AI change civic education? Should it? \nThis event will aim to demystify these questions\, building on the work of the CivXNow Coalition Working Group on AI which convened regularly in fall 2023. Featuring thought leaders in both civic education and AI\, the panel will examine how the civic education field can leverage the power of AI tools to improve civic education outcomes. It will also consider how AI creates a sharper need for civic education to help students adapt to risks associated with AI. These include\, for example\, the growth of synthetic media used to undermine trust in democratic institutions and the online information environment. \nPanelists representing a range of perspectives will offer recommendations for educators\, researchers\, and policymakers. The goal is to use this event to pave the way for further engagement on this topic within the civic education community and with policymakers.

SUMMARY:American Lesson Plan: Mapping the Landscape of Secondary US History Education
DESCRIPTION:“What are schoolchildren being taught about our nation’s history?!” Among education reformers and activists\, the question raises alarm\, often grounded in broad assumptions about the possibility for politics to shape what happens in the classroom. About two years ago\, the American Historical Association decided to take the question more literally. In the multistage Mapping the Landscape of Secondary US History Education project\, an AHA research team set out to describe the contours of a vast and varied terrain—an empirical grounding for ongoing debates and deliberations about the teaching of the American past. After a year and a half of interviewing social studies administrators\, surveying US history teachers\, coding state legislation\, and appraising district-level curricula\, the team has some answers. In this session\, the Mapping research team (historians Nick Kryczka\, Whit Barringer\, and Scot McFarlane) share their research from the field—and engage webinar participants in a discussion of how history’s civic function in K-12 education is faring in a polarized moment.

SUMMARY:Artificial Intelligence\, Elections\, and the Future of Democracy
DESCRIPTION:From algorithmic news feeds to deep fakes\, AI is poised to transform people’s day to day engagement with politics. On a broader scale\, the role of AI in transnational election interference and surveillance has led to international controversy as nations around the world struggle to respond. Bridging the everyday and the international\, the National Liberty Museum and the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia present a panel exploring how AI might shift democratic norms and influence democratic procedures in our election year and in the realm of global politics. Convening a panel of industry\, academic\, and government professionals in AI and democratic monitoring\, we ask not just what is happening\, but what to do.

SUMMARY:Learning from Young People: Implications for Civic Education and Engagement
DESCRIPTION:All to often when students’ civic readiness is discussed\, the voices of young people about their lived experience and the impact it has on shaping their civic outlook and leadership is left out of the conversation. This fall\, the Institute for Citizens and Scholars released data from a new national study on 18–24-year-old Americans’ knowledge\, civic engagement\, and commitment to democracy. The survey highlights important trends that can be key lessons for educators and policymakers interested in strengthening civic education and our democracy at large. \nThis interactive virtual discussion will bring together youth leaders from Mikva Challenge’s action civics programming with Jessica Sutter\, the Chief of Civic Learning Initiatives from the Institute for Citizens and Scholar and lead designer of the research to discuss the core findings from the national survey. In dialogue with Jessica\, the youth will share what resonates with them from the survey’s findings\, what were the civic learning and engagement opportunities that most inspired them to be active civic leaders\, what they notice about their peers in terms of civic knowledge\, attitudes and behaviors and their recommendations about what schools and community organizations can do to inspire their generation to be civically engaged.

SUMMARY:Civil Conversations: Modeling Civil Discourse with Your Students
DESCRIPTION:At a time when Americans feel more divided and disconnected than ever\, teachers may find it challenging to discuss certain topics in the classroom. Democracy thrives when its citizens share a set of norms and understandings to establish common ground that’s rooted in listening\, respect\, authenticity\, and curiosity. How can teachers convey the message that polarizing topics are not necessarily toxic\, and that a healthy American democracy does not mean that everyone agrees? \nJoin hosts Ben Klutsey (Mercatus Center\, George Mason University) and Lindsey Galvao (GBH Education) as they explore the concept of civil discourse and demonstrate why civil discourse is an essential skill that needs to be encouraged and practiced in the classroom. \nIn this FREE webinar for educators of grades 6-12 you will:\n1. Explore the difference between polarization and toxic polarization.\n2. Get practical strategies for implementing civil discourse in the classroom.\n3. Preview several PBS LearningMedia resources from the new Civics Collection that will allow you to incorporate civil discourse in your pre-existing U.S. History\, Government\, or Civics curriculum.

SUMMARY:Perception versus Being Together
DESCRIPTION:In unveiling the intricate workings of perception\, exposing its role in crafting optical illusions and distorting our grasp of visual reality\, we uncover a startling revelation: this very mechanism extends its reach into the fabric of our interpersonal interactions. Immersed in a battleground of perceptions\, we find ourselves entrenched in divisive narratives\, trapped within the confines of “Us-Against-Them” mentalities dictated by narratives that grip us relentlessly\, rendering us blind to alternatives. To transcend this perceptual stranglehold and cultivate a new mode of communal existence\, we embark on a journey of physical engagement and shared activities\, from the humble handshake to more elaborate exercises\, forging connections beyond the constraints of perception’s sway.

SUMMARY:“A Question of Respect”\, a book talk with Celinda Lake and Ed Goeas
DESCRIPTION:Join the conversation with pollsters and long time friends Ed Goeas (Republican)\, and Celinda Lake (Democrat)\, as they discuss how we can all work together in an increasingly polarized political world and make the case that the only way for America to escape its current divide is through mutual respect. America’s problems will never be resolved unless we can bridge our differences. \nBut with today’s all encompassing ‘us versus them’ mentality\, that might seem almost impossible. How did we get to this point of intense dysfunction and combativeness in both in person and online interactions? And most importantly\, how do we fix it? In their book\, “A Question of Respect”\, Ed and Celinda explore the possible roads that led us to this moment\, and how respect is the first step we need to take in order to trust one another. \nThis program is pre-recorded. \nLearn more about the Connecticut Democracy Center’s Civic Learning Week programming at ctdemocracycenter.org/civic-learning-week.
