The election highlighted deep divisions in American society. As we think about civic education we must take stock of these challenges: especially around diversity, marginalized groups, divided parties, digital democracy, and the pressures for more global perspectives. The panel members will bring expertise from research, practice, communication and policy to the discussion.
This forum is in conjunction with the Association for Moral Education (AME) 42nd Annual Conference.
