Details

This webinar examines strategies to effectively use drawings, paintings, and other handcrafted objects to teach the Holocaust. Participants will examine how these artifacts serve as physical evidence, historical record, and forms of resistance. Participants will also explore approaches for integrating these primary sources into the classroom to foster critical thinking and confront Holocaust denial.

Led by Dr. Catherine Clark, USC Shoah Foundation's Senior Director of Programs, whose scholarly work focuses on the relationship between history and visual artifacts, the session will equip educators with practical strategies to teach students how to analyze visual primary sources and handcrafted artifacts, construct historical narratives and engage with this history in ways that foster historical literacy and compassionate understanding.
