The P.S. Weekly podcast, produced by students from various public high schools, addresses crucial questions regarding civics education and political awareness among New York City teens. With perspectives from student producers and insights from Jenna Ryall, the director of Civics for All, the show sheds light on the disparity between political engagement on social media and actual voting behavior. The initiative aims to promote civil discourse and critical thinking, emphasizing the need for effective civics education to prepare future generations for democratic participation.
Civics education isn't about teaching students what to think, Ryall said. "We are teaching them how to think."
The goal is to help students engage in civil conversation and make sense of the information around them.
