SUMMARY:Active vs. Activist Citizenship
DESCRIPTION:Please join us virtually on Wednesday March 13th from 3:30 – 4:30pm ET for a dynamic discussion on fostering informed and engaged citizens in today’s polarized climate. Educators and organizations committed to civic learning and engagement often feel hesitant\, fearing they’ll be labeled political. Meanwhile\, parents may wonder about the distinction between active participation and advocacy\, and whether their child’s teacher is equipped to navigate these waters. Our panel will dive deep into the nuances of “active citizenship” versus “activist citizenship\,” exploring how these concepts intersect and sometimes clash in educational settings. Don’t miss out on this spirited debate as our experts dissect the tensions and opportunities inherent in shaping the citizens of tomorrow. \nThis is a virtual panel and the viewing link will be emailed to you prior to the event.

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:The State of Social Studies Education: Collaboratively Moving Forward
DESCRIPTION:National Council for Social Studies (NCSS) and Thinking Nation will host a special webinar that reviews a recent white paper published in Education Week and commissioned by Thinking Nation. The survey data gave statistics behind the anecdotes many of us know: 1. While Social Studies is deemed as critical for democracy\, it is not viewed as a priority in most school districts; 2. Professional Development does not currently effectively support social studies teachers; 3. Social Studies as a discipline is not effectively vertically aligned in most contexts. \nIn this program\, NCSS and Thinking Nation will discuss these findings\, along with other NCSS-supported research on K-12 student and educator experiences in social studies classrooms. We also are happy to have Dr. Bill Daggett of the Successful Practices Network join us for part of the webinar to provide a broader perspective about how social studies education can contribute to a broader goal of education reform. Our goal is to share how we can collaboratively work to better prioritize and resource social studies in all education contexts. This program will bring awareness of key solutions to strengthening social studies education to a diverse set of stakeholders in education. With 2024 being an election year and America’s 250th anniversary quickly approaching\, we must work together to utilize our discipline in order to preserve our constitutional democracy.\nWe hope that our conversation will kick off Civic Learning Week with exciting prospects about what the wider education community can do collectively. \nThis program makes an excellent “lunch and learn” for Central and Eastern Time participants\, and a great “mid-morning coffee break” for Pacific and Mountain Time participants!
