A great topic for discussion- What to do about Ukraine? Check out our resources here as we endeavor to create a space where students are encouraged to read and consider diverse viewpoints. projectcivamerica.com/2022/03/08/wha…
This is a great time to plan to have a ProjectCiv club for next school year! You pick the topic-it can be something in your school or community, or even something that’s a national issue. You might consider using student leaders! projectcivamerica.com/about/
This is a great time to plan for the beginning of the school year. Plan on forming a ProjectCiv club at your school! projectcivamerica.com/2018/04/26/sta…

What a profound article and a good reminder of the importance of school librarians. I teach students media literacy, digital citizenship, and intellectual humility (I started @projectciv so my kids could interact with classmates who have different viewpoints!)

There are so many great topics out there now! While we are missing in-person meetings, we can still have these conversations virtually.

Love this! One of our favorite ProjectCiv discussions was about cancel culture. nytimes.com/2020/11/19/sty…
Great article. Kids *are* talking about politics, with or without us. Let’s teach them how, and give them space to do so.

The new school year is starting soon and it will look different for many of us. Students are discussing politics, often on social media. Help them become more informed citizens by starting a ProjectCiv chapter at your school! projectcivamerica.com/about/
This is a great article to discuss with your students!

Teachers and Librarians, what are you discussing with your students? @AllSidesNow has some wonderful resources about COVID-19. One of my favorite topics is "reopening the country." It's perfect for a @projectciv discussion! allsides.com/story/conflict…
Teachers and librarians, if you’re teaching remotely, this is a great conversation guide!
