Our approach to civic education is about providing opportunities for students to experience their democracy first-hand rather than by reading about it in a textbook. By reaching students throughout their school career, during and between election periods, we hope to prepare them to be responsible and informed citizens.
CIVIX programming focuses on the themes of elections, government budgets, elected representatives and digital media literacy. Programs available include:
(1) Student Vote - an election enables teachers to bring democracy alive in the classroom
(3) Rep Day - connects students with their elected representatives for a virtual or in-person meeting
(4) CTRL-F - a module providing quick strategies students can use to investigate and evaluate information
(5) PoliTalks - supports educators in bringing political discussions to the classroom - Materials are free with registration, and programming is designed for grades 5-12
(6) Democracy Bootcamp - professional development conference for teachers designed to improve their democratic engagement and delivery of CIVIX programming

"Renforcer la démocratie grâce à l’éducation civique CIVIX mise sur les événements politiques actuels afin de les transformer en expériences d’apprentissage authentiques et de faire vivre la démocratie dans les salles de classe."
"Tout a commencé en 2003, avec un petit groupe de jeunes personnes dévouées mettant sur pied le premier programme Vote étudiant à l'occasion des élections provinciales ontariennes. Nous avons depuis élargi notre champ d’action et nous proposons maintenant une panoplie d'activités ayant pour but de développer l’engagement démocratique chez les jeunes, pendant et entre les périodes électorales, tant au Canada qu’à l'étranger."

The Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), founded in 1918, is one of the oldest voluntary organizations in Canada. Each year, we provide services and supports to more than 1.3 million Canadians through the combined efforts of more than 11,000 volunteers and staff across Canada in over 330 communities. As the nationwide leader and champion for mental health, CMHA facilitates access to the resources people require to maintain and improve mental health and community integration, build resilience, and support recovery from mental illness. CMHA branches across Canada provide a wide range of innovative services and supports to people who are experiencing mental illness and their families. These services are tailored to the needs and resources of the communities where they are based. One of the core goals of these services is to help people with mental illness develop the personal tools to lead meaningful and productive lives.

"With its reliable news in 10-minute video segments, CNN 10 allows teachers to keep students abreast of current events without overwhelming them with extra information or commentary. CNN 10 can be used as a starting point for a variety of activities. For instance, post a discussion question of the day related to a news topic and ask students to talk in small groups about how the story affects them. Ask students to choose a story of interest and probe into it for more depth. Flip the classroom by having students watch selected videos at home, and facilitate related projects in class. Promote collaboration and creativity by having students create their own news broadcasts related to curricular goals. Finally, promote media literacy by having students compare CNN's coverage with other media coverage of the same stories.
CNN 10 offers limited supports for classroom use: broadcast transcripts and downloadable weekly quiz questions, all targeted to the topics. But students can go to the top of the screen to get to more adult articles and topics, so beware. Still, that shouldn't deter kids who want to use the site independently or parents who want to help their kids learn what's going on in the world; the materials are user-friendly enough for everyone."

In this lesson, students go further into the collection and interpretation of data, including cleaning and visualizing data. Students first look at the how presenting data in different ways can help people to understand it better, and they then create visualizations of their own data. Using a the results of a preferred pizza topping survey, students must decide what to do with data that does not easily fit into the visualization scheme that they have chosen. Finally, students look at which parts of this process can be automated by a computer and which need a human to make decisions.

In this lesson students get practice making decisions with data based on some problems designed to be familiar to middle school students. Students work in groups discussing how they would use the data presented to make a decision before the class discusses their final choices. Not all questions have right answers and in some cases students can and should decide that they should collect more data. The lesson concludes with a discussion of how different people could draw different conclusions from the same data, or how collecting different data might have affected the decisions they made.
