Description: REL Central invites you to join us for a webinar exploring how students’ civic readiness can be developed and measured. Partners from the Wyoming Department of Education, Nebraska Department of Education, and Eugene School District 4J in Oregon will share the policies, programs, and practices they are implementing to support the development of civic readiness in their state or district. REL Central will provide an overview of research on trends in civic readiness, education, and participation. We will also introduce a new tool, Measuring Civic Readiness: A Review of Survey Scales, which participants can use to develop their own survey instruments.
