Project Citizen is a civics/government curriculum that promotes competent and responsible participation in government.  It teaches students about public policy through collaborative work, research, and analysis and engages them in learning how to monitor and influence public policy.   It is designed for students in middle school through high school. It is a project-based learning model where, students work together to identify and study a public policy issue, evaluate options, select a solution to the problem, and develop an action plan for it.  The final product is a board and portfolio displaying the student's work.  Project Citizen national sponsors are the Center for Civic Education http://www.civiced.org/ and the National Conference of State Legislatures http://www.ncsl.org/. Learning Law and Democracy is the State sponsor.
