Résumé
Les cours d’éducation citoyenne permettent généralement d’augmenter les connaissances politiques et l’engagement citoyen. Au Québec, le cours obligatoire Histoire et éducation à la citoyenneté, peu étudié jusqu’ici, a récemment été remplacé par le cours Histoire du Québec et du Canada s’adressant aux élèves de troisième et de quatrième secondaire. Quatorze enseignant⋅e⋅s d’histoire de quatrième secondaire interrogé⋅e⋅s croient que les deux cours augmentent certains indicateurs de politisation, sans grand impact sur le taux de vote, mais qu’ils n’accordent pas suffisamment de place à l’éducation citoyenne. En effet, leur enseignement semble dénué du climat de classe ouvert et des approches pédagogiques dont les écrits scientifiques ont montré l’effet positif sur la participation électorale des jeunes adultes.

Abstract
Civic education classes generally have a positive impact on political knowledge and citizen involvement. In Quebec, the mandatory History and citizenship education class, almost unstudied thus far, was recently replaced by a History of Quebec and Canada class in secondary 3 and 4. 14 interviewed History and citizenship education teachers in secondary 4 believe that these courses improve some indicators of students’ politicization but not necessarily future turnout, and that civic education takes too little space in the curriculum. An open classroom climate, which literature has found to have a positive impact on voting, seems to be absent from their teaching.

Resumen
Las clases de educación cívica generalmente permiten aumentar los conocimientos en política y la participación ciudadana. En Quebec, la asignatura obligatoria de historia y educación cívica , muy poco estudiada hasta ahora, fue reemplazada recientemente por una asignatura de historia de Quebec y Canadá en secundaria 3 y 4. 14 maestros de historia y educación cívica en secundaria 4 entrevistados consideran que las dos asignaturas, historia y educación cívica y historia de Quebec y Canadá, aumentan ciertos indicadores de politización, pero no necesariamente la tasa de participación en las votaciones, y que éstas no dedican suficiente espacio a la educación cívica. Un clima de clase abierta, un enfoque pedagógico del que la literatura ha mostrado un efecto positivo sobre la participación en las votaciones, parece estar ausente de su enseñanza.
