Dialogues in Holocaust Education

Explore our new online seminar series, featuring leading scholars and educationalists, exploring substantive issues in Holocaust education.

Our research, and feedback from teachers themselves, suggests that classroom practice could be further enhanced and supported by the latest scholarship on the Holocaust. Each online session, lasting up to an hour, allows attendees to hear from acclaimed historians and afford the opportunity to learn about up-to-date research and ask questions. These seminars are now available to watch online:

  1. Bystander Society’ with Professor Mary Fulbrook
  2. ‘Rescuers’ with Professor Ari Kohen and Dr Mark Gudgel
  3. ‘The Holocaust – An Unfinished History’ with Professor Dan Stone

Take part in our new national study with students!

 

Building on our landmark study about students’ knowledge and understanding of the Holocaust published in 2016, this survey is open to secondary schools across England:

  • Students who complete the survey should have previously learned about the Holocaust at some point while in school.
  • Ideally, we’d like schools to complete the survey online, but we can arrange paper copies if easier.
  • All participating schools will receive a report focused on the findings for their school.
