Data obtained through ques!i..0nnaire were quantitatively described and interpreted in the light of available literature while information obtained through interview; OpInIOn and observation were qualitatively described to support quantitative data. Results of the study indicated that teachers and students perceIve good citizenship from social point of views. knowledge of ones own government structure and the functions of its institutions, and political participation are behaviors perceived by teachers and students as less important characteristics that characterize good citizenship. Moreover, it was found out that though teachers admitted that activities in the classrooms and out of school practices help to prepare students for citizenship role in their actual practice, the traditional teaching approaches used in schools didn't allow students many of the practices needed to develop good citizenship. Furthermore, lack of attention for co-curricular activities, lack of coordinating learning activities through project, weak relationship between school and different stakeholders found to be factors negatively influencing the provision of improved Civic and Ethical Education and students' civic competence | en_US |
