NCLE's New Resources on Civics Education and Citizenship

NCLE staff have compiled an annotated collection of civics resources.
The collection is on the Web at  http://www.cal.org/ncle/REScivics.htm
and includes NCLE and ERIC publications, articles and books for
teachers, a bibliography of learner textbooks, as well as information on
Web sites, organizations, and policy topics. Teachers can use these
resources as they plan for integrating civics into instruction for adult
English language learners. This resource collection also includes a link
to annotated compilation of citizenship resources at
http://www.cal.org/ncle/REScit.htm.  

Citizenship resources have been separated from the main civics education
Web site for ease of searching and to highlight the fact that
citizenship, as important as it is, is just one part of civics
education. In the civics resource collection, NCLE invites you to also
investigate books, articles, and Web sites that explore the broader
issues of why and how practitioners can help adults meet their English
language learning goals within the context of their own lives and
communities.
