Teachers from the Holocaust Educators Network are on TTT tonight
Dr. Sondra Perl and Writing Project teachers from rural sites will be joining us on Teachers Teaching Teachers this week. We’ll be taking a look at their experiences in 10-day seminars that Dr. Perl led this summer and last summer. We’ll learn more about how teachers from those summer experiences have integrated teaching the Holocaust into their work with students.
Join us if you have stories of your own to tell about studying and teaching the Holocaust. Join us if you would like to add this to your curriculum. Join us to learn more.
HOLOCAUST EDUCATORS NETWORK
The purpose of the Holocaust Educators Network (HEN) is to provide a forum for faculty interested in studying and teaching the Holocaust. The Network extends the work of the summer seminars sponsored by the Memorial Library. Located at Lehman College of the City University of New York, HEN uses an inquiry-based approach to focus on how educators can engage students with difficult material and how writing and dialogue can help move students from shock and denial to empathy and action. We look to support educators from middle schools, high schools, colleges, and universities in the following ways:
• By examining teaching practices both critically and generously;
• By sharing resources and devising new approaches in workshops and in online forums;
• By inviting noted scholars and researchers to present new work to the group; and
• By developing and conducting workshops in teachers’ own schools and communities.
This summer the Holocaust Educators Network will once again offer a ten-day summer seminar led by Dr. Sondra Perl to middle school, high school, and college teachers from rural sites within the National Writing Project. Join us to find out more!
