The "Know Your Government" learning curriculum is designed to engage students "to do" while exploring and learning. Students will actively participate as a citizen while increasing their knowledge of how the government and elections work. Exercises include registering to vote, writing to a politician, conducting mock elections, voting, and learning about various roles and structures in government. Instructors and students are encouraged to explore and complete any or all of the activities.
