Teaching the Holocaust to Future Generations

The Fourth International Educators’ Conference

8-11 August 2004   

 

The International School for Holocaust Studies, in cooperation with Oranim Educational Initiatives, Ltd., is planning its fourth international conference on “Teaching the Holocaust to Future Generations.”  The conference will provide educators with an enriching and productive dialogue on the central dilemmas and complex issues involved in teaching about the Holocaust; explore new areas of research in the sphere of Holocaust education and the extensive variety of teaching materials, curricula, films, and Internet sites in the sphere of Holocaust education; present contemporary manifestations of antisemitism and Holocaust denial and the means for coping with such phenomena in the classroom; and introduce new directions in Holocaust education in other disciplines such as literature, art and theater.

Conference participants will discuss current topics, including “The Holocaust in Jewish Education—the Challenge for the 21st Century,” the meaning of morality and ethics in the interdisciplinary teaching of the Holocaust, and new pedagogic approaches for classroom activity.  There will also be scholarly lectures to the conference plenum, learning groups and a broad range of participant-led workshops.
