Resources for civics learning at home
Thank you to TEV partner, Children’s Defense Fund – Texas, for this week’s voter update.
In light of COVID-19, this month’s CDF Texas newsletter adapts Children’s Defense Fund – Texas’ DIY Democracy Guide and other resources to support online & at-home civic education. The guide offers ideas for at-home action civics, curriculum for media literacy, and options for no-tech or low-tech learning. You will also find resources for mental and emotional support.
In this time of uncertainty, civic skills and civic education remain as important as ever. We hope this guide is useful both personally and professionally. We encourage you to be innovative, be flexible, and most of all be patient with young people and with yourselves.
Stay safe and healthy, and thanks for all the work you do!
