Abstract
This assignment allows students to demonstrate active citizenship because it provides students with an opportunity to develop their writing skills by writing a persuasive op-ed about civic engagement and citizenship. American political culture embodies the role of the citizen in the democratic process and writing an op-ed is one way for a citizen to articulate their beliefs about issues in society.
