iCivics and Civics Education in Schools

[W. Branstetter]

There is a C-Span.org program that shows former Justice Sandra Day O'Connor providing testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee.  The program is just under 1.5 hour and is quite interesting.  Check out the hearing at:

There is a mention of a web site or educational program that Justice O'Connor is involved with to advance civics education in schools through an "iCivics" program.  This looks like it should be beneficial to our youth and perhaps some adults.  There is a portion of the web site that gets into the presidential election.  It looks like there are some learning games involved.

The iCivics link has been added to the links on the home page where there are several educational links.
