 an age of polarization\, platforms\, and declining trust in institutions? 
 This 60-minute seminar explores how civic identity is formed\, why America
 n civic education is struggling to keep pace with social and technological
  change\, and what that means for democracy. Drawing on research and hands
 -on experience in civic education\, the session examines how colleges\, co
 mmunities\, and digital environments shape civic habits\, beliefs\, and pa
 rticipation—often in unintended ways. The seminar will describe a variet
 y of innovative approaches to civic learning and asks how technology can m
 ove from fragmenting civic life to playing a role in revitalizing democrat
 ic knowledge\, skills\, and behaviors.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\nPrior to a
 ssuming the role of Executive Director of the Center for Revitalizing Amer
 ican Institutions at the Hoover Institution in 2023\, Tom served as a Lect
 urer and Senior Advisor on Civic Education at the Deliberative Democracy L

 the Executive Director of the Haas Center for Public Service\, and a Resid

  and implementation of a living-learning community focused on public servi

 n Mississippi\, Tom coordinated statewide academic-community partnerships\
 , including several large AmeriCorps programs focused on educational equit
