Students are asked to research the choices that will appear on the ballot for the voting district in which they live. Students create a one-page sheet that details their votes on the issues along with the reasons. Students then analyze their votes in light of the Bishop's statement and the principles of Catholic social teaching.
Candidate Research Project
Students will choose a local or national candidate and analyze the candidate's position in relation to the seven principles of Catholic social teaching and the issue areas emphasized in the Bishop's statement.
Analyze an Article
Students choose an article from their local newspaper on a public policy issue. The article is then analyzed from both a conventional political standpoint and from the standpoint of Catholic social teaching.
