In this article, based on an example of Project Citizen activities done with university students, the application stages were examined, and the opinions of the students who applied were analyzed. The research was carried out with 38 students studying at the education faculty of a university in the United States during the 2018-2019 academic year. In the study, the projects prepared by the students in the activities were analyzed with the qualitative analysis program MAXQDA. As a result of the research, it was observed that the students needed comprehensive and detailed information at the beginning stage of Project Citizen, the projects they produced generally consisted of problems in their own lives, and they had the most difficulties in the public policy section while preparing projects. However, they found the project production process effective, efficient, and enjoyable.  \nKeywords: Project Citizen, Civics Education, Student Opinions.  \nDOI: 10.29329/epasr.2020.345.18  \n1Assoc.

Projects in civics education give learners significant and constructive learning opportunities to help them understand their potential as committed and involved citizens and practice the responsibilities (Kopish, 2017) . One example of teaching democratic citizenship is Project Citizen, which teachers have used in the U.S. and other countries for years.  \nThe foundations of project-based education have been debated since the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The development of project-based education became one of the most significant features in the progressive era of American education. As a result, objectives, rational concepts, and the pedagogies of Project Citizen were inspired by progressive education theorists such as Francis Parker, John Dewey, and William Heard Kilpatrick (Adha & Yanzi, 2014) . First implemented in California in 1992 and expanded into a national program in 1995, Project Citizen is a subject-oriented teaching practice to develop the knowledge, skills, and inclinations of democratic citizenship to participate in government and civil society (Vontz, Metcalf, & Patrick, 2000). It is an interdisciplinary curriculum developed by the Center for Civic Education in Calabasas, California, to prepare students for democratic citizenship. Since its inception in 1992, the project has gradually expanded and is now used in all 50 states in the U.S. and many countries worldwide (Adha & Yanzi, 2014) . The program encourages students to monitor and actively engage in public policy to address various school or community issues and acquire the necessary social and intellectual capital for responsible democratic citizenship.  \nProject Citizen is a learning technique to inspire students in the classroom that can then be used as a model of ci","cbCaiqJYM2WJoOHR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqJYM2WJoOHR","pdf",831368,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What is Project Citizen, according to the document?\",\"answer\":\"Project Citizen is an interdisciplinary curriculum that encourages citizens’ competent and responsible participation in local and state governments through civic education activities.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the research conducted and analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"The study involved 38 university students during the 2018–2019 academic year and analyzed their prepared projects using the qualitative analysis program MAXQDA.\"},{\"question\":\"What difficulties and benefits did students report in the projects?\",\"answer\":\"Students needed more comprehensive and detailed information at the beginning, their projects often reflected problems in their own lives, and they faced the most difficulties in the public policy section; they also considered the project production process effective, efficient, and enjoyable.\"}]","Civics Education in Higher Education - “Project Citizen” Sample | PDF",1792095401]
