Election season is upon us and Close Up is here to help you make the most of it! We offer in-person and virtual civic education programs for students, professional development training sessions for teachers, and a number of classroom resources that foster greater understanding and thoughtful, civil discussion of the major issues driving the 2022 midterm elections.
We’re also proud to provide the following free resources:
Close Up brought me CLOSER to politics…
the entire notion no longer seemed obscure. I became very involved in politics on the local and national level.
I plan to introduce Close Up’s professional development to the teachers I work with…
and use this as a part of my school’s requirement that students take action on issues of local, national, and international importance.
Close Up is a positive experience for students…
seeing themselves as having the power to influence the democratic process.
As a government teacher, it’s nice to have more resources…
for teaching media literacy and having students critically think about the information they receive.
