Source : ERIC Clearinghouse for Social Studies/Social Science Education Bloomington IN. Teaching the Responsibilities of Citizenship. ERIC Digest. Education for citizenship in a constitutional democracy has been a long-standing goal of schools in the United States. To achieve this goal, students must learn their civil rights and responsibilities in a free society. This ERIC Digest discusses (1) the importance of teaching about the responsibilities of citizenship, (2) deficiencies in learning about responsible citizenship, (3) how to improve learning about responsible citizenship at home, (4) how to improve learning about responsible citizenship at school, and (5) where to obtain information and materials about how to teach responsible citizenship. WHY SHOULD WE TEACH THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF CITIZENSHIP? Civil rights and liberties, claims based on law, are enforceable through the judicial system (e.g., the individual's right to freely express public policy preferences, to vote in a public election, or to have a trial by jury). By contrast, responsibilities of citizenship are obligations to contribute to the common good by performing duties to benefit the community (e.g., the individual's responsibility to become informed about public policies, to vote in public elections, or to serve willingly as a juror). The preservation of civil rights and liberties is linked to performance of responsibilities. For example, the right of political participation means little when most citizens fail to exercise it. Furthermore, the right to free expression of political ideas is diminished when individuals do not gain knowledge about government. Responsibilities of citizenshipsuch as voluntary service to the community, participation in the political system, acquisition of knowledge about civic life, and public commitment to the values of constitutional democracy (e.g., liberty, justice, and the rule of law)are essential to the health of a free society.

Mayo Elementary School Vice President of Teaching Fellows Programs, The New Teacher Project "In the third grade, I entered the gifted and talented program at my high-need Los Angeles public school, and the teachers in the program changed the course of my life. They paid attention to my life outside the classroom, and focused on preparing me for college. I was able to earn a scholarship to a private boarding school, which had numerous resources my previous school lacked. Without these resources, it would have been more difficult for me to compete for college admission. As a school board member, I sometimes hear people make excuses for children in low-income communities, and I take it personally because I think about my former students and my own experience. I know that all students will achieve when held to high expectations, and I have a personal stake in ensuring that our policies in South Whittier reflect this potential. Without the experience of teaching, it would be much more difficult to be effective." Andrew Greenhill Chief of Staff, Mayor of Tucson

48. Editorial- Voice Of Ataturk Should Government Teach Religion? By M.Orhan Tarhan Since last May, Turkey has been arrested just at the edge of the brink. The ErbakanCiller coalition http://www.ataturksociety.org/letters/religion.html

Should Government Teach Religion? By M.Orhan Tarhan It was very heart-warming that the secular Yilmaz government was confirmed quite comfortably with a large vote surplus. It looks like it will last at least until the next election. Also the first important bill it pushed through the parliament, passed just as comfortably, in spite of the efforts by the Islamists and the majority of Ciller's party to prevent it. This bill increases the compulsory secular public education from five to eight years, which was high time. In the process, it forces the middle sections of the imam-hatip schools out of business. This has the advantage that the Islamists will not be able to brain-wash young kids of 6 - 8 grades at a tender and impressionable age. Once a youngster gets a good foundation of eight years of a secular education, he or she will be much more difficult to brainwash in an imam-hatip high school. Now there is a great controversy on how the government should provide the religious education to the children, while still giving them a secularist mentality. Prime minister Yilmaz is talking about separation of state and mosque. The Alevi organizations think that the government should not be in the business of teaching religion, since the government automatically teaches the Sunni version of Islam. Deputy prime minister Bulent Ecevit thinks, that if the government does not teach religion, that job will be immediately picked up by the Islamists and that is not acceptable. Thus, before anything is done, there is a need for clarity on which principles should be applied and what are the real problems.
