It is designed to be used over a number of weeks and it is flexible in that you can choose how much time to spend on each section. Aim of this research: Teaching Holocaust history demands a high level of sensitivity and awareness of the complexity of the subject matter.

In Part 3, students peer- and self-assess the projects, reflect on their learning and celebrate success.
