For citizenship education in the 21st century, globalization increasingly presents a new challenge and a new opportunity. Since the time when nationalism played a critical role in unifying new nations, nationality and citizenship have been virtually synonymous terms. As a result, the constructed symbiosis of citizenship and national identity has influenced state supported citizenship education in the most profound way. School curricula, particularly in public schools, produced and reinforced the dominant version of citizenship, which is national citizenship. Schools were expected to prepare future loyal citizens who would identify themselves with the nation.Due to the changing nature and scope of human interactions, the traditional model of citizenship education, however, appears increasingly outdated and deficient to address many contemporary challenges. Thus, schools have become a locus of a potential conflict of two citizenship discourses: the discourse of national citizenship that for a long time has served as the ultimate purpose of public education and the discourse of global citizenship that is forcefully and continuously seeking for a proper place in school curricula despite the lack of curricular heritage. The need for an education for citizenship that has a global scope and is guided by critical and emancipatory approaches becomes more evident. At the same time, the pressure to globalize and internationalize curriculum actively challenges such concepts as patriotism, national identity, loyalty to the state, or national uniqueness of government and democratic development that have been fundamental for citizenship and civic education for decades.In this book, a group of international scholars present their research about the dynamic development, interplay, and interconnectedness of two major discourses in citizenship education, namely national and global. Case studies and ethnographies from China, Cyprus, Egypt, Hong Kong and Singapore, Lebanon, Liberia, the Netherlands, Russia, and the United States display a multifaceted but yet comprehensive picture of educators' attempts to promote social justice, global awareness, and multiple loyalties. The volume will appeal to several constituencies: it will be interesting to teachers and teacher educators whose focus of instruction is citizenship education, social studies education, and global education; it will also be interesting to scholars who conduct research in citizenship and global education.
Host your own trivia game about the Constitution! Perfect for a civics class or history club, this game features four rounds with themed questions about the legislative, executive, and judiciary branches of government as described in the original Constitution, as well as a round about the Bill of Rights. This game would work well in a civics class, history class, homeschool, or co-op. It was designed to use for review or like a scavenger hunt to induce players to search through the Constitution to find the answers to the questions, making for hands-on play. Students could certainly play individually, and this would make for a fun assessment; but it works well cooperatively, as well. Included: - Printable game sheets - Printable score tracking sheets - Four questions plus a bonus question for each of the four rounds - A final bonus question - Printable direction sheets - Answer keys - Five printable celebratory pages to use as certificates or selfie signs - Printable copies of the Constitution and Bill of Rights - A 72-slide optional presentation to use as a visual to guide play. *This game was modeled after popular trivia night games often held in restaurants or public venues. While those often include timed questions, a timer is not included here so that you can customize the timing for your own use.
