The best practices of Civic Education to generate the culture of democracy in contexts of educational poverty

Abstract

In this time of global disorder, the need to rethink teacher training to make them competent with respect to education in the culture of democracy is felt with increasing insistence. There is an urgent need for an anthropological and pedagogical effort in the face of the new condition of human uncertainty and indeterminacy that stifles the hopes of the new generations in particular. The strong weakening of civic sense is the tangible expression of the educational devolution we are experiencing. The essay proposes to train teachers to be able to grasp in the transversal teaching of Civic Education the possibility of “regenerating” students civic sense through enactive didactic practices, capable of making them experience civic, sustainable and responsible attitudes.
