Active involvement.  \nThe project SPACE, described following, aims to support empowerment, participation and active citizenship of young people across Europe through active involvement in the school and local community. In order to support this process, SPACE offers innovative methods and tools to encourage students’ participation and to develop their competences and skill, such as collaboration, participation, negotiation, and emotional intelligence. In this way, they can learn democratic ideas, and practice competencies for active citizenship through participation at working groups or involvement in student council, developing as future active citizens.  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nEuropean citizenship represents a permanent priority in the European Agenda and many documents recognize the importance of promoting active citizenship across education systems throughout Europe (European Council, 2001; European Commission, 2009) .  \nFurthemore, the European framework on key competences for lifelong learning (2006) suggested that young people should develop social and civic skills during their school education in order to become active citizens.  \nThis underline that schools play a key role in fostering citizenship skills and competencies, and in supporting the new generation to realize an inclusive societies and put democratic and civic education in practicei (Englund, 2000; Amnå et al., 2009; Sherrod et al., 2010) .  \nThis competences/skills-based approach demands to understand democratic value and to experience active political participation and civic engagement at school through new teaching methodologies allowing intentional discussion, active cooperation in decision-making processes in schools (such as student radio or newspapers, elections of student representatives, volunteering for campaign work,…) and promoting students’ council or students group.  \nIn this way, young people could become able to know deeper the principles, value and attitudes of democracy and to apply them in a real context.  \n2. CIVIC AND CITIZENSHIP EDUCATION  \nIn order to explore how different countries prepare young people to act as citizens, we assume as starting point the results from the International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS), an on-going, comparative research program of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) .  \nICCS aim to measure contexts and outcomes of civic and citizenship education and is linked to the IEA Civic Education Study (CIVED), (Torney-Purta et al., 2001; Schulz and Sibberns, 2004) .  \nICCS use the term civic and citizenship education «to emphasize a broadening of the concept, processes, and practices that have occurred in this area [since 1999] . Civic education focuses on knowledge and understanding of formal institutions and processes of civic life. Citizenship education focuses on knowledge and understanding and on opportunities for participation and engagement in both civic and civil society» (Schulz et al., 2010) .  \nThe ICCS assessment framework is organized around 4 content domains (each domain is made-up a set of subdomains): Civic society and system, civic principles, civic participation, civic identities and include cognitive and affective-behavioral components (Table 1) .  \nTable-1. ICCS assessment framework  \n\n|  | Content Domain |  |  |  |  |\n| --","cbCaivfMsRxa1mUx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivfMsRxa1mUx","pdf",628498,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Civic and Citizenship Education\n# SPACE Project: Students Promoting Active Citizenship in Europe","[{\"question\":\"What is the SPACE project intended to achieve?\",\"answer\":\"The SPACE project aims to support empowerment, participation, and active citizenship of young people across Europe through active involvement in school and the local community.\"},{\"question\":\"Which student competences and skills does SPACE focus on?\",\"answer\":\"SPACE uses innovative methods and tools to encourage participation and develop competences such as collaboration, participation, negotiation, and emotional intelligence.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the article link active citizenship to civic and citizenship education in schools?\",\"answer\":\"The article argues that schools play a key role in fostering citizenship skills and that teaching should enable intentional discussion, active cooperation in decision-making, and democratic participation through school-based activities and groups.\"}]","PROMOTING STUDENTS ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP: THE PROJECTSPACE - Vol. 2 - Article | PDF",1792073067,18]
