Teaching the Election: A Workshop for New England Educators
-
Boston, MA
This workshop will support educators in teaching and guiding students’ understanding of elections and the importance of democratic dialogue. This event will occur in-person.
Help students understand the Chinese government’s violations of Uighur people’s human rights, hear the voice of a young Uighur woman, and consider the international community's response.
Students examine the steps the Nazis took to replace democracy with dictatorship and draw conclusions about the values and institutions that make democracy possible.
Students are introduced to the enormity of the crimes committed during the Holocaust and look closely at stories of a few individuals who were targeted by Nazi brutality.
Students deepen their examination of human behaviour during the Holocaust by analysing and discussing the range of choices available to individuals, groups, and nations.
Students both respond to and design Holocaust memorials as they consider the impact that memorials and monuments have on the way we think about history.
