{"product_id":"9783658490133","title":"Democracy and Me : Design and Evaluation of a Citizenship Education Program","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this book, Oke Heinrich Horstmann explores how young people learn about democracy and their own role within it through out-of-school educational settings. The study is motivated by the political engagement of many youths, particularly in the context of the Fridays for Future protest movement. The author first outlines a conceptual framework for Citizenship education programs within teaching-learning laboratories. Based on an integrated approach of democratic education that combines social and subject-specific learning, he develops an out-of-school educational program implemented at the demokratie:werk of the Kiel Science Outreach Lab (Kieler Forschungswerkstatt). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA quantitative questionnaire-based study investigates changes in participants individual political dispositions. In addition, guided individual interviews are conducted and analyzed using qualitative research methods to capture processes of meaning-making related to democracy. The results suggest that participation in the program may lead to increases in political self-efficacy, specific action readiness, and, in some cases, political interest. The investigation of learners conceptions suggests potential for fostering meaning-making but also reveals a need for deeper reflection on the perceived role of the individual in democratic contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction and Objectives of the Study.- Theoretical Background.- Didactic Approach of the Program.- Research Questions and Hypotheses.- Design and Methodology of the Program.- Further Development of the Offering after Initial Practical Implementations.- Questionnaire Study.- Interview Study.- Final Discussion on the Program 'Challenge Climate Change - How Do We Act in a Democracy?.- Conclusion and Outlook.- Funding.- References.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOke Heinrich Horstmann \u003c\/strong\u003eis a research associate at Kiel University (Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel).
