This article presents The E3 Conceptual Framework for Civic Education as an approach for critical engagement with citizenship in a democratic society during challenging times. It consists of three phases that can be deployed to facilitate critical civic education: Exposure, Emergence, and Embodiment. The E3 Conceptual Framework for Civic Education offers guidance to those scholars and practitioners committed to envisioning higher education as transformative and emancipatory. This article also shares a vignette in which The E3 Conceptual Framework for Civic Education was used to design, teach, and evaluate an undergraduate sociology course. It is my hope that the reader will transfer the knowledge in this article to their own context as they transform themselves in order to transform society.
