Making Sense of the Holocaust: Lessons From Classroom Practice

by Simone Schweber, Gloria Ladson-Billings (Foreword)

Starting with the assumption that all teaching carries with it moral orientations, this book examines which lessons are conveyed implicitly and explicitly in teaching and learning about the Holocaust. Through three, very readable case studies, the author reflects on what lessons the Holocaust ought to be used to express, illuminating important implications for the teaching of other historical episodes.
