3 Dear Student Vote Team Leader, We would like to thank you for engaging your students in the Student Vote program for the 2015 federal election. You are joining thousands of schools across Canada in the largest Student Vote program ever conducted. We are optimistic that this campaign will reach over 700,000 students from coast to coast to coast. We have developed this campaign guide to summarize the materials and tools available, highlight important dates, propose an overarching learning strategy, and offer helpful tips for running the program. Please use, modify, re-arrange and choose from the materials as you see fit. We hope you find them easy to navigate and use in your classroom. An evaluation of the Student Vote program by Elections Canada has shown that participating students engage their family in the election, which results in a positive impact on voter turnout. You have taken on the important task of coordinating this program and by doing so may improve electoral participation in your surrounding community. Every Tuesday you can expect an newsletter from us with important updates and reminders, and links to additional tools and resources. We have got a long list of special projects in the works so stay tuned. National Student Vote Week will be held from October 13 to 16 before the official election day Monday. Please make sure to report your school s results by 6pm local time on October 16 in order to be included in the media tallies. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our team at hello@civix.ca or Good luck and have fun, Taylor Gunn President and CEO

How does democracy compare to other types of government? What does it mean to live in a democracy? X Our Rights and Responsibilities What democratic rights do we have in Canada? What responsibilities come along with our rights? Why is voting important? Three Levels of Government: Who, What and Where? How does government impact my life? What roles and responsibilities exist at each level? What is the federal government responsible for? The Parties Who are the leaders of the parties? What are the parties planning to do if elected? Which party do my beliefs and values align with most? My Riding and My Candidates What is the name of my riding and which candidates are running for election? What should I look for in a local candidate? What local issues are important to me? Step 6 My Voice, My Choice Which candidate should I vote for? How do I mark my ballot? Who will form the next government?

9 #studentvote15 CIVIX uses social media on a daily basis to share news, updates and other important information. During the 2015 federal election, we have partnered with Twitter Canada to help share student opinions from across the country. Here are our suggestions on how to best use Twitter, and other social media, in your Student Vote classroom: #1 #2 #3 #4 Go to twitter.com and create an account for your class. You can either use your own name or use the name of your class Follow our accounts. We have three accounts that are updated multiple times per day with news, photos and important While you re at it, you can also follow Elections Canada (@ElectionsCan_E), and local and national media accounts. Track the parties and your candidates to get updates from the campaign trail. Share updates from the campaign and your Student Vote Day. Post photos, videos and student opinions, and we ll favourite and retweet them. Use hashtags. The hashtag we re using for the 2015 election is #studentvote15. Use this in your tweets, or search for tweets that use it, and you ll find tweets from us and others about Student Vote Many school boards/divisions also use their own hashtags, and #cdned is commonly used to share with educators across the country. Many candidates, parties and the media are using #elxn42 for the federal campaign. Other Tools Pollenize pollenize.org/canada Looking for student-friendly party platform summaries? Pollenize breaks down the platforms of the six major parties point-by-point and provides Canadians young and old with the information they need to make an informed decision. Vote Compass votecompass.ca Want to help students figure out where they stand in relation to the parties? Vote Compass was developed by political scientists and aims to help people discover how they fit in the federal political landscape. After answering a short online questionnaire, students will learn which party is most closely aligned with their own views.
10 Tips for Success #1 Start with the basics Make sure students have an understanding of the roles and responsibilities of the three levels of government in Canada. It is the foundation for researching and debating the issues of the campaign. NEWS #2 Incorporate news consumption and media literacy every day It takes 21 days to build a habit. Promote daily newspaper readership and media consumption. Encourage students to consume multiple sources and help them develop their critical thinking skills. #3 Explore issues that matter to your students Facilitate research into the issues that matter most to your students. Help them realize that government influences their lives. As a class, compare the party platforms of your students top issues. #4 Engage the candidates Give students a chance to get to know their candidates. Organize a friendly allcandidates forum, invite the candidates in for a one-on-one visit, them questions from students, or engage with them through social media. #5 Fuel political discussion at home Find ways to encourage democracy at the dinner table through take-home activities. Provide an opportunity for students to teach their parents about the voting process.
11 #6 Involve your colleagues Developing the skills of citizenship is the purpose of schools it's not just a social studies objective. Inspire your colleagues to get their students involved in Student Vote. #7 Engage local media and give your students a voice Reach out to media and invite them to track your school s involvement in the election. Some newspapers may be interested in publishing op-ed pieces by students or an article and photos from Student Vote Day. Media coverage makes students feel valued and that their participation is important. #8 Use social media This election is being called the social media election. Create a classroom Twitter or Facebook account and track the parties, candidates and journalists, and engage with them. X #9 Ensure students get the full experience of an election Create an election team with your students. Give as many students as possible a hands-on role promoting or coordinating Student Vote. Use departments such as communications, voter education, election officials, and community and media relations (See Suggestions for Wider Engagement in your activity guide). #10 Make Student Vote Day fun! Election day is an exciting day. Give your students an experience they will remember. Dress it up, make it fun, and celebrate our democratic rights and freedoms.
