Abstract

Democracy and Election Courses aim to shape students into good citizens who understand democracy and elections so that students are able to behave and implement democratic values in their daily lives. The student's civic literacy in democracy and elections learning is still lacking. The purpose of this study is to identify the civic literacy of students and to describe the strategy of strengthening student civic literacy in democracy and elections learning based on actual issues to improve student civic literacy. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. Data sources used were questionnaires, interviews, observations, document studies and focus group discussions. The results showed that the level of student civic literacy towards the problems of democracy and elections was still low by learning based on actual issues in the field of democracy and elections had implications for improving student civic literacy.
