“The book is superbly designed and organized, and very well written. It is scholarly, examining the foundational, theoretical, and conceptual issues surrounding college-level education for political learning. It is challenging, discussing central goals in political development that higher education administrators and faculty should address. It is helpful to scholarly practitioners, focusing on key pedagogical strategies of teaching for political learning. And it provides a treasure of lessons learned, both in the narrative chapters and in the appendix of creatively designed courses and programs.” —Raymond D. Vlasin, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Michigan State University, for Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagement, Volume 13, Number 1

“Educating for Democracy [offers] not only a vision but an incisive program of political engagement poised to address the concerns of disengaged youth. The principal motivation for the book is that undergraduate education is one of the most valuable venues to address political engagement.... Colby, Beaumont, Ehrlich, and Corngold make a persuasive case that the undergraduate experience provides a significant pathway to political engagement that has the promise to shift the political discourse for the millennial generation.” —Dilafruz R. Williams, professor of Educational Policy, Foundations, and Administrative Studies, Portland State University, for Michigan Journal of Community Service Learning, Spring 2008
