• Featuring: Ashley Rogers Berner, Joseph Reilly, and Shinui Kim
Since the founding of the United States, our state and federal laws, Supreme Court opinions, and landmark reports have called on the nation’s schools to prepare the next generation for adult citizenship. But what does this mean in concrete terms? How do political scientists describe the indicators of successful democratic citizenship? What are the measures of success? And what is the Johns Hopkins School of Education doing to support civics education across the country?
Join faculty members Ashley Berner and Joe Reilly and PhD student Shinui Kim to learn about:
What scholars consider the key indicators of democratic citizenship;
how the School of Education collects ongoing data about civics and schools; and what our current partnerships with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation and other civic providers teach us about American democracy.
