Echoes and Reflections:                                 A Holocaust Education Program

Echoes and Reflections is a FREE professional development opportunity for teachers of middle school and high school students. This seminar aims to enhance the content knowledge and pedagogical skills of teachers who include Holocaust and genocide studies as part of their curriculum.  The program models active learning and practical instructional strategies. The standards-based print and digital resources reviewed in the seminar equip teachers with the tools they need to help today's students study the Holocaust as a significant event in human history and to define the role and responsibility of the individual to uphold the principles of a democracy and of moral and ethical behavior.

Holocaust survivor, Rena Finder, will share her story with participants.

Participants earn a Certificate of Completion for 5 hours of professional development.         .

This program is co-sponsored by the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Salem State University, the Anti-Defamation League, USC Shoah Foundation, and Yad Vashem
