Coast picIn order to encourage Citizenship to be embedded in Geography, a series of ideas, information, materials and case studies are developed to illustrate how teachers might teach about the geographical diversity of Europe and the regions, the cultures and systems in place and the institutions concerned. Teaching European citizenship is about establishing a curriculum that will encourage an awareness of: the geographical diversity of Europe and its regions. In particular with its natural, social and economic features, the political and social structures in Europe, the forces that shaped Europe and the patterns of development and characteristic features of European culture in its unity and diversity. What is Citizenship provides some ideas and information as well as a discussion area on aspects of citizenship education in Europe. You can also find out more about citizenship by viewing this presentation (ppt).

  In the Teaching Citizenship section a ‘Teachers Handbook’ is available to help guide you through teaching citizenship through Geography, therefore giving you a guided experience. Within the teachers Handbook a number of topics are further developed as case studies, providing additional ideas and useful Web sites which are gathered for you to use within the classroom. Please feel free to complete our evaluation form and let us know what is your favourite site or to add your Case Study.

  Citizenship materials can take many forms online, teachers can use Teaching Resources on the Euro.Geo Web site to search for and enrich the Geography curriculum with lesson materials and online information on the European Dimension. These materials were prepared by exploring a large number of external Web sites, which were validated and evaluated by European teachers during the course of the project. The links were then classified in terms of their use. All the links were confirmed as operational in May 2004 and the database made operational in June..
