I use the program in all five of my civic classes. Every class works on a different topic of their own choosing, and puts together its own portfolio. We hold a competition between the classes in front of a panel of judges, made up of members of the community, to determine which class will represent our school at the state Project Citizen competition. Many students who have started 7th grade with distaste for social studies leave at the end of the year with a positive attitude and perspective."
