This strand took you from where you already have a say, through government, votes, laws, courts and media, to a real democracy action you ran. Today is not a test. It is an honest look at what stuck, what still confuses you, and what that third action actually taught you about how power works.

On the board are three stems: "In the influence map I...", "When we ran the count I noticed...", "During the third action I...".

Keep those stems in sight. Next you open the audit and practise being specific by doing it.

First, two minutes with a partner: swap one real moment each that could count as evidence (use the stems on the board if you are stuck). Then open the interactive on your own device. For each of the four items, give yourself a rating and write one specific piece of evidence from this strand.

When you finish the four, answer the two prompts at the end in your own words.

1. Hands up: which of the four audit items felt thinnest for you?

2. Three pairs will be asked to share one surprise about how power works in Ireland, and one thing that is still unclear.

You can now:

• Rate your own learning across Exploring democracy with specific evidence behind each rating.
• Name one thing about how power works in Ireland that surprised you, and one thing you still do not understand.
• Say what the third citizenship action changed for you, and what it did not.

That honest picture is what you carry into the Action Record work ahead.
