Dissertations and Theses

A healthy democracy requires active civic engagement. Effective civic involvement can be encouraged by education that helps students learn to respect diverging viewpoints and build skills such as critical thinking about policy frameworks.

Second, the field could reach its goals more effectively by adopting teaching strategies that directly help students …
