Civic Education State-by-State: Interactive Map

New Interactive Map Explores Civic Education State-by-State
Many states have recently updated K-12 Civics curricula to conform with Common Core standards. CIRCLE has created a new interactive map designed to quickly see where states stand on key state level civic education provisions, such as required years of social studies in high school and assessments of civics and social studies. This map builds upon the October 2012 fact sheet on state laws, standards and requirement for K-12 Civics. By double-clicking on a state you can see a more detailed snapshot of a state’s civic education along with other key information like educational spending, population demographics, political climate, and voting rates.
