    Representative Democracy in America is a 6-part video series on dvd and vhs designed to help high school students understand our system of representative democracy. The 6 programs, each approximately 15 minutes in length, address the following topics:

    • the roots of representative democracy
    • federalism and the separation of powers
    • the roles of representatives, executives, and justices in our democracy
    • our representatives and how they are chosen
    • the role of the citizen in a representative democracy

    The Video Series Instructional Guide includes: 12 lesson plans, a synopsis of each program, a bibliography, and correlations to the We the People: The Citizen & the Constitution (Level 3) text. A printed copy of the instructional guide accompanies each dvd and vhs. A digital version of the instructional guide is also available on the dvd only.
