Rather, the purpose should be to teach youth about their government and it. how to participate in In the push to focus on the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic, fundamental citizenship skills have fallen by the wayside, she said. Durham hopes to turn the tide by doinga better job of teaching students about the law. On Friday, she encouraged the state Board of Education to consider law-related education a "Valuable priority.” ‘Public education, with all the pressures on it, has become a little alienated from its roots,” Durham told the board. Nationwide, students and adults do not understand things such as the judicial system, the separation of power in the three branches of government and federalism. They do not Consider: In a survey conducted by the National Constitutional Center, just 6 percent of respondents could name the four rights protected by the First Amendment; 24 percent could not name one of them correctly. Utah already requires that students take classes on U.S. history and gov-. ernment. But the emphasis on how to be a responsible citizen is weak, and the lessons on law can seem far removed from reality, she said. Students may learn about the Bill of Rights, but they do not see those rights being honored in practice, she said. If students could see law in action _ attend court trials, talk to judges and lawyers, participate in mock trials — they might have more respect for and understanding of the law and how and why it is applied, Durham said. ‘We hope it will encourage youngsters . . . to understand: they have some options and some power in their country,” Durham said after the board meeting. ‘Now, many believe it is cor- rupt, inaccessible and irrelevant.” The Utah State Judicial Branch, the know their constitutional rights and ‘Utah State Bar and the Utah Law Related Education Project have come together to help educators do a better responsibilities, she said. job of teaching kids about the law.
