Il contient des informations sur le Mexique, le Guatemala, la Colombie, le Brésil, l'Équateur, le Pérou, la Bolivie et le Paraguay, et comprend quelques infomations et commentaires sur la Norvège. Certes, toute l'Amérique Latine est impliqué dans le sujet, d'une façon ou d'une autre, mais pour l'instant c'est la portée géographique du papier.

National curricular guidelines and citizenship education in schools in Latin American countries Year of publication: 2013 Author: Martín Bascopé | Macarena Bonhomme | Cristián Cox | Juan Carlos Castillo | Daniel Miranda Corporate author: Centro de Estudios de Políticas y Prácticas en Educación (CEPPE) The aim of this study is to contrast two different sources of information regarding citizenship education in Latin America: curricular guidelines, and students’ civic attitudes and practices. When analyzing curricular guidelines, we consider the official national documents of the respective Ministries of Education, whereas regarding civic practices and attitudes, we analyze the results of the 2009 ICCS study. By using quantitative methods, we contrast the curricular emphasis and students’ results for each of the six countries considered. Our findings show that several curricular absences are associated with students’ low achievement in civic and citizenship knowledge and attitudes. Therefore, these results provide some guidelines for improving the official curricular documents and developing more empirical research on less-covered civic topics. Finally we encourage further research on classroom practices, especially on the topics highlighted in this research, such as authoritarianism, peaceful coexistence, national and regional identity, and accountability. Inside classroom research is very important to have a complete view of civic/citizenship curricular guidelines and practices, considering the limitations implied by looking at the intended curriculum (official documents) rather than the one implemented.
