Civically Engaged Research in the classroom: Resources from Sydnor, Commins, and Reyna (2021) “Empowering and Engaging Students through Civically Engaged Research”

Integrating civically engaged research into political science courses promises important benefits, including the potential for developing better democratic citizens.

Included here are resources from the two courses highlighted in the article on CER in the classroom published as part of the 2021 symposium on CER published in PS: Political Science and Politics.
