Practitioners’ Conference on Civic Education
http://www.civicedconf.org/practice.html

January 13-15, 2005 ? Hotel InterContinental ? New Orleans

About the Conference. For a country to flourish and grow, and for a democracy to sustain liberty and justice, the next generation of citizens must acquire the civic skills, abilities and commitments to govern.

This interdisciplinary conference will draw together K-12 educators and counselors, university teacher educators, state coordinators and policy makers, school and university administrators, and staff from youth-serving community based organizations. This would include work on service-learning, character education, democratic education, violence prevention. There are over one hundred workshops and presentations, and links to the complete program are in the column to your right.

The conference will take place over three days, and the registration fee (as low as $295 for faculty/professionals and $245 for students) includes two breakfasts, two lunches and refreshment breaks. Rates are higher for people who do not stay in the conference hotel. Purchase orders will be accepted. The EIN number is printed at the top of the registration form.
