Teachers became the students as they worked through projects and made presentations during the first of six regional workshops aimed at training educators to incorporate the nationally recognized We the People civic education program in their classrooms. The workshop was held at the Oconee County Civic Center August 29-30.

The highly participatory We the People: Project Citizen and We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution instructional programs provide students with a better understanding of our democratic system of government and the U.S. Constitution. The workshops are coordinated by Mary Stakes, Vinson Institute faculty member, and John Hoge, UGA College of Education faculty member.
