The focus of this PLE is to explore how to enhance student engagement with democracy in the CSPE classroom. Session 1 considers how to stimulate student interest in and thinking around democracy-related issues and events in Ireland and the wider world. Session 2 explores a range of strategies on how to support student thinking about the implications of democracy on their own lives and how a range of activities from the Council of Europe may be applicable to a teacher’s own student context. Session 3 asks teachers to consider how the CSPE short course specification can inspire ideas on democratic student actions before exploring how reflection forms an important aspect of the Citizenship Action Record.
