<p>Youth Civic Engagement<br /><br />This two-day professional development provides educators with tools and strategies to build civic knowledge and skills for all students to become informed, engaged citizens. Obtain tools and resources to support youth to use their skills for social and civic engagement in their local, state, national, and global communities.</p>
<p class="p1">Learn the basics on how to:</p>
<p class="p1">• frame civic inquiries</p>
<p class="p1">• facilitate research and investigations to distinguish “real” from “fake” information using the Civic Online Reasoning Project from Stanford University</p>
<p class="p1">• engage students in civil dialogue about controversial issues using the Structured Academic Controversy and Socratic Seminar approaches</p>
<p class="p1">• how to help students reach conclusions to take informed, responsible civic action.<br /><br /></p>
<p>These skills will help participants create environments to address concerns that are TUPE centered such as youth vaping, youth access to tobacco products, or tobacco’s impact on the environment. The skills learned are also transferable in taking civic action to for real concerns in the school, community, and the beyond.</p>
