Civic Education and Democratic Literacy play a pivotal role in empowering students to become engaged and informed citizens. Individuals equipped with this knowledge understand political and civic systems, allowing them to navigate these systems effectively and contribute meaningfully to the improvement of their communities.  

The goal of this CoP is to enhance the capacity of adult educators and programs to provide instruction that amplifies student perspective and voice, builds civic engagement, and dives deep into participatory approaches to democratic processes for adults including those who are developing literacy and language skills.

This CoP takes place on Moodle and at College of Marin and runs for 12 consecutive weeks, from 01/20/2025 to 04/11/2025. There will be asynchronous online activities, including forum discussions and job-embedded lesson planning/implementation, before, in-between, and after the required two Face-to Face sessions.  These three-hour in-person workshops are scheduled for Friday, January 31, 11:30 am - 2:30 pm, and Friday, March 28, 11:30 am - 2:30 pm at College of Marin.

Participants who successfully complete this course will receive a certificate of participation (16 hours).
