Latest news
The launch of the Holocaust DVD and resource pack took place at Stormont
on the 18th June 2009
This is an invaluable resource and DVD, available free to schools
and written by the Interboard History Forum. It examines the period
of
the Holocaust and the events leading up to it using ‘Facing History
and Ourselves’ methodologies and forces the learner to examine
the roles of victim, perpetrator, bystander and rescuer. The active
methodologies also encourage the examination of human behaviour with
reference to controversial issues.
If you did not attend the launch and have not received this resource,
please contact me.
