National Contexts for Civic and Citizenship Education
摘要
The International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS) 2022 provides information about the educational systems that participate in this study, using a range of different sources, including a National Contexts Survey (with questions about the system level contexts for teaching civic and citizenship education), data from secondary databases (including educational, economic, and political characteristics), as well as data from the teacher and school questionnaires. The data demonstrate the diversity of the ICCS 2022 participants, with large differences observed in measures of the democratic nature and the perceived level of corruption and in the degree of autonomy schools have with decision-making processes. The approach for delivery of civic and citizenship education at the target grade varied across a range of different topics including learning objectives and the way students are assessed and given feedback on civic and citizenship outcomes. Teachers and principals gave similar perspectives on what they believed the most important aims of civic and citizenship education were. Questions on teacher training revealed that civic and citizenship education is most often reported as mandatory for pre-service education and offered as part of in-service education for teachers of human/social sciences. The teachers themselves reported that they felt well prepared to teach a wide range of topics related to civic and citizenship education.
