Professional Learning

These professional learning sessions explore how screen texts can be used to teach civics and citizenship in primary and secondary classrooms, using examples from the Civics and Citizenship: Curated Clip Collection. 

The sessions walk through each lesson in the resource, showcasing short clips and activities designed to help students explore fairness and inclusion, understand rights and responsibilities, and engage with democratic processes - such as elections, protest, and community action - in safe, age-appropriate ways.
