I recall viewing a slideshow provided by the professor February 8th, 2023. This slideshow was titled Curriculum as a Citizenship. In the first slide, students engaged in a discussion to answer the following question: What words come to your mind when you think about citizenship. During the first in-class discussion, various students provided many answers. The students mentioned that citizenship relates to obeying the law, having the right to vote in elections, passport, and that the term citizen can even relate to the place you come from. the previous lecture. I really enjoyed participating during this class discussion because it gave everyone the opportunity to think outside the box and provide an answer without doing any research.
After viewing the YouTube video titled Joel Westheimer: What Kind of Citizen, I gained a more thorough understanding of the term citizenship. In this video, one of the speakers described that citizenship means being able to change the world. I enjoyed his definition of the term citizenship because as an aspiring teacher, I want to motivate my future students to positively change their environment and to accomplish good things.
