Holocaust Education
Many middle and high school teachers are required to teach the Holocaust to their students and don’t know where to begin. Some may even find the subject matter intimidating. With its program, How to Teach the Holocaust, the New Jersey State Bar Foundation in partnership with the Anti-Defamation League, provides guidance on tackling this sensitive topic.
This interactive workshop series includes workshops such as Teaching the Holocaust, Empowering Students; Analyzing Propaganda and Teaching Media Literacy: The Holocaust as a Case Study; Choices Matter: Complicity and Action During the Holocaust; Connecting the Past with Today: Jewish Refugees and the Holocaust; Creating Context for Teaching Night; and Spotlight on Contemporary Antisemitism. Each educator who attends the Foundation’s program will be introduced to the Echoes & Reflections Online Resource. This resource includes visual history, testimonies, primary source materials, instructional strategies to promote critical thinking, and more.
This program is FREE for educators and geared toward middle and high school teachers. In person trainings are from 9am-3pm and offer 5.5 professional development credits. Virtual trainings are 3 hours at various times and offer 3 professional development credits. Please note that all programs are virtual until further notice. Please visit our Events Page to see our current offerings.
All in person trainings max out at 30 participants and virtual trainings at 60 participants. To be put on a wait list for a training, please click here.
