Teaching Atrocities- The Holocaust and Unit 731 in the Secondary School Curriculum

Rachel Pawlowicz and Walter E. Grunden

4.9/5 (15637 ratings)

Description:EDUCATORS at the secondary school level who teach History, or Integrated Social Studies more broadly, may be expected to possess at least some passing knowledge of the Holocaust, the genocide perpetrated against European Jews by Nazi Germany in the 1930s and 1940s. The historical literature on the Holocaust today is vast. Testimonials of survivors are readily available and have been extensively filmed thanks to director Steven Spielberg and the Shoah Foundation. Moreover, Hollywood has produced numerous excellent documentaries and dramatic films exploring themes focusing on the Holocaust. Films such as Spielberg’s Schindler’s Listhave made this horrible chapter in human history accessible to mainstream audiences in a stark yet appropriate way. This film in particular, though graphic and not shying away from the brutality of the period, has been deemed appropriate for viewing in American high schools and, since its release in 1993, has even been incorporated into numerous secondary school curricula. Thus, it cannot be said that high school history curricula in the United States have ignored such atrocities. Yet, when it comes to the Pacific War and Japanese war crimes and atrocities committed in Asia, significantly less attention and coverage are given. Why has this been the case?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging. And by having access to our ebooks online or by storing it on your computer, you have convenient answers with Teaching Atrocities- The Holocaust and Unit 731 in the Secondary School Curriculum.
