好了，我在這些ICCS報告中，找不到香港排名第五的數字。ICCS報告只羅列參加38個國家在不同公民教育課程的形式和重點 (approaches to civic and citizenship education in curriculum and emphasis given to civic and citizenship education processes in curriculum)。

沒有排名。

想到，香港是否跟隨世界趨勢公民教育課程，要再看現時其他國家的趨勢。

ICCS報告展示出一半參與國家(20個)用獨立成科(Specific Subject (compulsory))的方式教公民教育，但有更多的參與國家用與其他科目整合(Integrated into several subjects)，跨課程(cross-curricular)及課外非常規課程或學習經驗的形式(assemblies and special events, extra-curricular activities, and classroom experience/ethos) (2010:23)

至於如何教公民教育或公民教育教甚麼？ICCS報告從以下幾方面比較不同參與國家的教學目標，這幾方面可以反映現時其他國家的模式(2010:25-26)︰

• knowledge and understanding of civics and citizenship
• communicating through discussion and debate; projects and written work
• creating opportunities for student involvement in decision-making in school; community-based activities
• analyzing and observing change processes: in school; in the community
• reflecting on and analyzing participation and engagement opportunities
• developing a sense of national identity and allegiance
• developing positive attitudes toward: participation and engagement in civic and civil society

對比《德育及國民教育科課程指引(小一至中六)諮詢稿》的「理念方向」(2011:7-14)，似乎這個諮詢稿諮詢稿重點落在個人成長及培養情操。對於該次比較研究的其他國家，主動性公民參與(active participation)的重點，著墨不多。
