Over the last decades, many European Union countries have invested in strengthening participatory learning in citizenship education policy and practice. This survey study provides insight into how high school teachers in the Netherlands advance critical democratic citizenship and a democratic school culture in the context of mock elections. A quarter of the schools that organized mock elections in 2017 participated in the study. Analysis reveals that attention for critical, valuerelated teacher aims and teacher aims directed at strengthening a democratic school culture is still limited in mock election-related education. It also shows that half of the participating schools offer less than one hour of mock electionrelated educational activities, and that one-third of the teachers would like to offer additional educational activities.

模拟选举是培养民主发展和民主学校文化的一种方式

在过去的几十年里，许多欧盟国家投资于加强公民教育政策和实践中的参与式学习。这项调查研究深入了解了荷兰的高中教师如何在模拟选举的背景下推进重要的民主公民和民主学校文化。2017 年组织模拟选举的学校中有四分之一参与了这项研究。分析表明，在模拟选举相关教育中，对关键的、与价值相关的教师目标和旨在加强民主学校文化的教师目标的关注仍然有限。亦显示半数参与学校提供少于一小时的模拟选举相关教育活动，三分之一的教师愿意提供额外的教育活动。
