Civics Education Has Never Been More Important

The National Constitution Center is here to support your social studies department with free Scholar Exchanges—LIVE online civics classes for students—every week.

Scholar Exchanges are:

· Live classes that are interactive and engaging: part lecture, part lively discussion.

· Easily incorporated into existing curriculum; no preparation required.

· Supported by free, ready-to-use resources that we share with teachers afterward.

· Helpful in encouraging civil dialogue, critical thinking, and active listening.

Our upcoming February Scholar Exchanges are:
