Conceptual understanding and democratic citizenship : A quantitative study on high school students' conceptual understanding of subject-specific concepts in social studies (English)
Abstract [en]

The present study investigates high school students' knowledge for concepts that are common in civic education teaching. The concepts that the study investigates are linked to democracy and the Swedish constitution, in order to make connections between conceptual understanding and democratic citizenship. The purpose of the study is to investigate differences between year one and year three and to make visible connections between conceptual understanding and the goal of raising democratic citizens. The experience has been gained through surveys completed by a total of 105 high school students in year 1 and year 3. The results show that students in year 3 generally have a better understanding of concepts than students in year 1. The study also shows that there are interesting connections between understanding of concepts and democratic citizenship.
