ABSTRACT: The
objective of this research is to analyze the possibilities of civic education
as a sustainable value for citizen education. The existing problem of the lack
of civic values in the education of individuals in their formation as citizens
is revealed in due time. Its referential framework is based on the theories of
democracy and civic virtues, as well as the positions of the Ministry of Public
Education (SEP), and the National Electoral Institute (INE). Specifically, a case study is carried out with the Center for
Technological, Industrial and Service Studies No. 22 (CETis 22) in the city of
Tampico, Tamaulipas in Mexico. A mixed
cut measurement instrument is applied, through a survey applied to students on
their last semester and teachers that make up the period 2021-2022. The
information of the analyzed data is compiled and its results are presented graphically,
considering that they respond to the theoretical base and its trends to rise during the analysis process. These proposals are outlined for the
application of public policies focused on the promotion of civic education in
educational institutions in the region.
