Growing a Citizen
Description:
This unit consists of four lessons with a theme of “How to Grow a Citizen.” Learners analyze how the work of a citizen is described in the literature of different faith traditions. They compare important core democratic virtues (values) with the representations of local and national media. After discussing what goes into a “Citizen’s Tool Box,” they develop a personal mission statement of responsible citizenship. A personal Service learning,Service-learning project extends the personal mission statement into a journal activity and civic efficacy.
