Election season offers a dynamic opportunity—and a few challenges—for both educators and students. It is an ideal time to explore core democratic principles, such as the consent of the governed, the rule of law, and federalism. Expand your civic education toolkit by diving into the Center’s voting and elections resources. This curated collection includes four civics inquiry lessons that guide students through primary source investigations with questions like “Do we need a constitutional amendment to protect voting rights?” and “Is the Electoral College still necessary?” These student-centered inquiries not only encourage critical thinking but also strengthen foundational knowledge of the Constitution and its role in our democracy.
