Using a critical-pedagogical framework to analyse data from an on-line survey, the paper presents both quantitative and qualitative responses to contrast understandings of democracy. The paper begins by outlining the concepts of thick and thin democracy, and revisiting the (parlous) state of civics and citizenship education (CCE) in Australia. Overall, pre-service teachers in this study display a tendency to view democracy in a very narrow or thin way that may impact their classroom practice. 2013 artículo científico 2182-8474 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=575763899006 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5757 Sisyphus — Journal of Education application/pdf Universidade de Lisboa Sisyphus — Journal of Education (Portugal) Num.2 Vol.1 |
