Abstract: Both citizenship and citizenship education have been transformed over the past 20 years as policymakers, academics and citizens have sought to grapple with the implications of globalisation, increased migration, and new information and communication technologies. Education has been central to this response, and this article outlines why schools play such an important role in preparing children and young people to become citizens. The article then describes some of the latest trends in Europe towards teaching the next generation about citizenship, and concludes by highlighting some of the issues that will require leadership from head teachers in the coming years. Keywords: citizenship; citizenship education; equality. Resumen: Tanto la ciudadanía como la educación para la ciudadanía se han visto transformadas en los últimos 20 años como resultado de la respuesta de legisladores, académicos y ciudadanos a las consecuencias de la globalización, el aumento de las migraciones y las nuevas tecnologías de la información y la comunicación. La educación ha sido central en esta respuesta y este artículo describe por qué las escuelas juegan un papel tan importante en la preparación de los niños y jóvenes para convertirse en ciudadanos. A continuación el artículo describe algunas de las últimas tendencias en Europa hacia la enseñanza de la próxima generación de ciudadanos y concluye poniendo de relieve algunas de las cuestiones que requerirán el liderazgo de los directores escolares en los próximos años. Palabras clave: ciudadanía; educación para la ciudadanía; igualdad. Recibido /

...imetable (see Eurydice, 2012). Through these different curriculum areas, schools impart information and cultivate skills that can be more explicitly linked to citizenship activities. For example, students may learn about the current electoral system in a Citizenship Education class, while their history classes might tell them about how the political system came into being. But regardless of what it is called, or how it is delivered in the curriculum, formal learning about citizenship has a positive impact on civic efficacy, participation and knowledge (Niemi, Junn, 2005; Keating et al., 2010; Kahne et al., 2013). 39 Educating tomorrow’s citizens: what role can schools play? Foro de Educación, v. 14, n. 20, enero-junio 2016, pp. 35-47. e-ISSN: 1698-7802 4. Citizenship learning through the hidden curriculum That said, it is not just the formal curriculum that is important; the informal or hidden curriculum also help to teach students what civic norms, values, and behaviours are expected of them. For example, students who experience on open climate at school are more likely to report trust, tolerance, and to demonstrate critical thinking. An open school climate is one in which students feel able to open...

ABSTRACT Service-Learning, a popular approach to citizenship education in the US, provides youth with opportunities to define and address public needs while reflecting on the knowledge, skills, and relationships needed to do such work. This approach assumes education for democratic citizenship must help youth understand themselves as part of a larger community, increase their sense of agency and efficacy as civic actors, and increase their ability to analyze social and political issues. It also assumes that these outcomes are best learned through experience. Creating these conditions can be quite challenging in the context of schools, where students are typically separated from the community, highly controlled in their activities, and have limited time to grasp the complexities of a given topic. This piece responds to the growing role of new media in civic and political activity. Specifically, it examines how the integration of new media into service learning may facilitate or challenge the core pedagogical goals of this approach to civic education and the implications for the practice of supporting youth civic engagement in school settings. Based on a review of existing programs and research, the authors illustrate how new media can be used to support four primary goals of service learning -designing authentic learning environments, connecting to community, supporting youth voice, and encouraging engagement with issues of social justice. RESUMEN El aprendizaje-servicio es un método que se utiliza con frecuencia en la educación para la ciudadanía en los EEUU. Proporciona oportunidades a los jóvenes para definir y abordar las necesidades de la población, y al mismo tiempo, reflexionar sobre los conocimientos, habilidades y relaciones que requiere dicha tarea. De acuerdo con este enfoque, la educación para la ciudadanía democrática debe ayudar a los jóvenes a comprender que forman parte de una comunidad más amplia, fomentar su sentido de función y eficacia como agentes cívicos, y mejorar su capacidad para analizar cuestiones sociales y políticas, entendiéndose que estos resultados se consiguen de mejor forma si el aprendizaje es a través de la experiencia. Crear estas condiciones puede suponer un reto en el contexto escolar donde el alumnado suele estar apartado de la comunidad, muy controlado en sus actividades, y con un tiempo limitado para comprender las complejidades de ciertos temas. El presente artículo responde al papel creciente de los nuevos medios en la actividad cívica y política. Analiza específicamente cómo la integración de los nuevos medios en el servicio-aprendizaje puede facilitar o cuestionar los objetivos pedagógicos básicos de este enfoque de la educación cívi-ca y las implicaciones para la práctica de fomentar la participación cívica de los jóvenes en los entornos escolares. Basándose en una revisión de los programas existentes y los resultados de estudios realizados, los autores muestran la forma en que nuevos medios pueden ser utilizados para apoyar los cuatro objetivos principales del aprendizajeservicio: el diseño de entornos de aprendizaje auténtico, la creación de enlaces con la comunidad, apoyar la voz de los jóvenes y alentar la participación en cuestiones de justicia social.
