In this video, we see candidates initially scrambling to piece together their final words and convince as many citizens as they can to vote for them. After each candidate says their 15-second piece, the ballots are cast, the votes are counted, and the students’ first Civic Mirror government is announced.
After this event, The Civic Mirror kicks it up several notches. Students will have elected their own government, with its own platform and its own agenda. Some will be looking from the outside in, while others will be have procured a very desirable position of political power.

ARE YOU WONDERING WHAT THE CIVIC MIRROR IS?
Basically itβs a government and economics simulation that turns classrooms into countries and students into citizens. Far more than just a game, The Civic Mirror is a fully comprehensive civic education program that turns the old rules of teaching and learning on their head. Students actively assume real-world citizenship roles β both in the classroom and online β and work as individuals to provide for imaginary families and achieve hidden agendas, while working together to build a strong, democratic nation.
