Here's an overview of some of our efforts to stimulate deliberation about the U.S. Constitution.
Constitutional Convention Simulations
Since our beginnings as a school club in California, we have enabled exciting debates and discussions about the U.S. Constitution. To model a hypothetical Constitutional Convention as outlined by Article V, Reframe has created a comprehensive framework and has held half-day to multi-day simulations for motivated students at a variety of venues.
Three hours to three full days
(depending on objectives)
15 to 150 delegates
Train-the Trainer available
Unique Curriculum
Seeing the lack of meaningful, critical analysis of the Constitution’s defects within the nation’s schools, Reframe has created a unique and comprehensive curriculum. The lessons enable students to not just understand the Constitution, but to also generate original thinking on how certain aspects of the document could be revised to reflect the intents of the framers while simultaneously meeting the needs of the modern age. We have recently begun a partnership with the Youth Leadership Initiative, a group at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, to disseminate the curriculum to teachers and students around the nation.
