This community-based research investigated the relationship among Holocaust knowledge, Holocaust education experiences, and citizenship values in adults residing in the US. This study contributes to the literature an inferential investigation that reports positive civic attitudes associated with Holocaust education. A moderate correlation was identified, with approximately 10% of the variance in citizenship scores explained by Holocaust knowledge. Multiple regression analyses revealed Holocaust knowledge as the strongest predictor of citizenship values, followed by gender, suburban/urban childhood community, and learning about the Holocaust in school, respectively. Of eight unique Holocaust education experiences examined, learning about the Holocaust in school was the strongest predictor of citizenship values, followed by hearing a Holocaust survivor testimony in person or via electronic media, and visiting a Holocaust museum, respectively. Findings can inform Holocaust education policy, research, and practice, including the potential role of Holocaust curriculum in the larger context of moral and civic education. 相似文献

Reflection on the Holocaust is still critical today to help all educators teach their students about good and evil in the world today. In particular, reflection on the Holocaust is crucial for religious educators to help people know and name God, as well as help them deal with questions of theodicy, within their everyday life experiences. This article examines the role of religious education in this post-Holocaust context. Because of the Holocaust, Christians ought to be educated in ways that free them from biased and slanderous views of people and their religions, and open them to more inclusive and hospitable ways of coexisting with all types of people in the world today. 相似文献

This article examines the responses of some 1,500 Canadians to a public opinion survey on knowledge of the Holocaust, awareness
of genocide, and attitudes towards discrimination and diversity. Based on one of the most detailed surveys conducted to date
on Holocaust knowledge, the study found strong correlations between greater reported Holocaust knowledge and concern over
genocide, as well as greater recognition of anti-Semitism as a societal problem. Greater reported Holocaust knowledge did
not, however, correlate consistently with greater openness towards selected dimensions of diversity. This counterintuitive
phenomenon can likely be attributed to what respondents have learned about diversity and the limits of the effect of Holocaust
education in this regard. Hence, further research is required on the relationship between the two. Finally, going forward,
a case is made for a global assessment of levels of Holocaust knowledge. 相似文献

In contrast to the situation in England and Wales, Holocaust education in Scotland is not mandatory and is not delivered to
every school student. Still, it is offered frequently. In this article we show how Scotland’s changing curriculum, the introduction
of Holocaust Memorial Day, and the Lessons from Auschwitz Project have contributed to the growth of Holocaust education in
Scotland over the last decade. We discuss the significance of each of these three factors, the impact of Holocaust education,
and the inter-related nature of their practice with relevant references to the English equivalent. We further examine the
role of Holocaust education at both the primary and secondary level, consider the challenges for Holocaust education in Scotland,
and conclude that although large numbers of students in Scotland are currently engaging with Holocaust education, these three
factors continue to play a vital role in its success. 相似文献

Can Holocaust education be considered a tool for human rights education? If so, to what extent? These questions elicit discussions
among a wide range of educators, and interest among politicians, educational planners, and ministries in charge of memorials.
At first glance the obvious answer seems to be yes; both educators and students have strong expectations in this regard. But
educators in both fields can find it difficult to include both topics in one programme. The article clarifies some basic concepts
regarding the traditions of Holocaust education and human rights education, and then makes a distinction among learning about, learning for, and learning within a framework of human rights. This distinction makes it possible to differentiate the possible contributions, and the limits, of Holocaust
education as a human rights tool in these three areas. Also, as these two fields evolved in very separate ways, common projects
could bring together concepts and experiences from both fields to develop further possibilities. 相似文献

This article examines the ways that, in Holocaust education in Jewish schools in Melbourne and New York at the beginning of the 21st century, knowledge of the Holocaust is transferred to students in chronological form. It begins by asking: What work do chronological narratives do within the Holocaust historical narratives offered within Jewish high school classrooms? In order to explore this question, examples from curricula and interviews with the teachers are explored. It is argued that while the use of chronological narratives within the high-school classroom to narrate historical events is not unique to the teaching of the Holocaust, the work which this narrative form does is particular to the negotiation of the traumatic aftermath of the Holocaust. 相似文献

Research has shown the Holocaust to be the primary component of Jewish identity (Farago in Yahadut Zmanenu 5:259–285, 1989; Gross in Influence of the trip to Poland within the framework of the Ministry of Education on the working through of the
Holocaust. Unpublished M.A. thesis, Ben-Gurion University, Beer Sheva, 2000; Herman in Jewish identity: A socio-psychological perspective, Sage, Beverly Hills, 1977; Levy et al. in Beliefs, observations and social interaction among Israeli Jews. Louis Guttman Israel Institute of Applied
Social Research (Hebrew), Jerusalem, 1993; Ofer in Jews in Israel: Contemporary social and cultural patterns. Brandeis University Press, Hanover and London, pp. 394–417,
2004a) and to contribute significantly to Jewish Israelis’ sense of belonging to the Jewish people. Though the Holocaust is a central
event in Jewish history, Holocaust education is mandatory in the state education system in Israel, and some research has investigated
the impact of this education, the field has not been conceptualized systematically (Blatman in Bishvilei haZikaron 7:15–16,
1995; Feldman in Bishvilei haZikaron 7:8–11, 1995; Ofer in Jewish Educ 10:87–108, 2004b; Schatzker in Int J Polit Educ 5(1): 75–82, 1982). This article attempts to organize the existing knowledge on the subject through a meta-analysis of the foundations and
basic premises of Holocaust education in Israel, using the most important literature in the area. It first suggests a conceptual
framework, organizing by period the changing attitudes toward the Holocaust in general and Holocaust education in particular.
It then describes Holocaust education over the years, and finally analyzes the goals of Holocaust education, along with its
major dilemmas and challenges. 相似文献

The article outlines a deficit in Holocaust education: The motives of the perpetrators and bystanders are often not dealt
with. In order to explore these motives, interviews with former Nazis were conducted and evaluated in the Geschichte und Erinnerung (History and Memory) research project; two of the findings are presented here. Subsequently the question of how these findings
can be applied in school teaching about National Socialism and the Holocaust is discussed. The author recommends teachers
not to expose students to whole narrations of former Nazis, but to use brief excerpts from those narrations in order to develop
an analysis of the Nazis’ motives. Ultimately, teaching about the topic of National Socialism and the Holocaust should be
integrated with students’ own narrations, with their knowledge of the topic based on family stories, family secrets, and other
sources. 相似文献

This article analyzes the historical and political context of Holocaust education, and its implementation in Polish schools.
Perceptions of the Holocaust continue to change, influenced by Poland’s social and political situation. The Polish historical
context is quite specific; it includes the long history of Poles and Jews as neighbours, with local resentments and animosities,
and the Polish sense of being special victims of World War II and observers of the Nazis’ “final solution to the Jewish question”.
These different types of social awareness have neutralized the remembrance of the Holocaust and its presence in school education.
Similarly, the perception of the Holocaust in Polish schools has changed. Initially seen as just one element in the Nazis’
crimes against everyone in Poland, it is now understood as a singular phenomenon, the unparalleled mass extermination of the
Jewish nation. From this perspective, I analyze Holocaust education, and its status in the curriculum and in pedagogical practice.
I also report on my own research on the practice and meanings of Holocaust education in Polish public schools. Holocaust education
should not be limited to the pedagogical transfer of remembrance but should also be associated with transforming social awareness
and modern civic education. 相似文献

AbstractPreparing students to be effective citizens is a longstanding goal of public education. Historical content provides illustrative opportunities for civic learning. Teaching about the Holocaust exemplifies this approach. Employing an experimental research design with 865 secondary school students, we analyze effects on civic outcomes from learning about the Holocaust through a school-sponsored trip to a Holocaust museum. We find that lessons about the Holocaust increase students’ support for civil liberties and deepen historical content knowledge, but decrease religious tolerance. High school students and those from college-educated households drive increases in support for civil liberties, and these students are more likely to donate to human rights causes as a result of the intervention. Middle school students and those from less-educated households drive the negative religious tolerance effect. These findings suggest that history lessons can produce meaningful impacts on civic educational outcomes. However, a stronger educational foundation that comes with engaging with challenging political issues may be a vital prerequisite to avoid undesirable consequences. 相似文献

Sixty-five years after the liberation of Auschwitz, Holocaust education is at a critical juncture. Societies including Germany
and Israel have moved through several discrete stages both in their relationships to the Holocaust, and in education about
it. Those shifts will surely continue as the generation of survivors is progressively lost to the passage of time, taking
with them our most powerful links to history, memory, and understanding. This special issue explores Holocaust education research,
and locates it within our evolving understanding of the Holocaust itself, particularly in light of what is being learned within
Central and Eastern Europe, where so many of the atrocities were committed. This introduction considers the potential of Holocaust
education as well as its limitations, and the risks of its failure. It also considers the contexts in which Holocaust education
takes place, and the meanings that are at work in those contexts. While many goals and visions animate Holocaust education,
here we explore the notion of a culture of peace and remembrance. We close with a review of the contributions to this issue. 相似文献

Holocaust education can play a role in countering the ongoing problem of prejudice and incitement to hate that can lead to
racial tension and violence. This article examines the beliefs of Muslim school children towards Jews in Sydney, Australia.
It then discusses efforts to use Holocaust education to combat racist beliefs and hate language, and an alternative approach
that illustrates the common values in the Abrahamic faiths. The article analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of using
various school programmes to counter anti-Jewish feelings amongst Muslim children and ends with a discussion of whether such
programmes should be compulsory. 相似文献

Museums often cite supporting teachers and schools as a goal, and museum educators frequently create resources or provide professional development for this audience, though the two entities have little contact. This qualitative study sought to examine the perspectives of museum educators at a regional Holocaust museum as they planned and presented two-week-long professional development workshops for educators. Pre-workshop and post-workshop interviews were conducted with three museum educators responsible for the workshops, which were also observed in their entirety. Findings indicate that all three museum educators believed the Holocaust to be difficult knowledge. However, each approached the topic in a different manner based on their personal experience and understanding of Holocaust education, resulting in three vastly different presentation styles. These varied presentations resulted in an uneven focus on content, with few concrete classroom connections. The article concludes by discussing implications for museum-initiated professional development and avenues for further research. 相似文献

Experimentation in Holocaust education began in American schools in the mid‐1970s. After construction of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., the subject gained momentum. The last two decades have seen continuous development. In five states, Holocaust education is required at all school levels; in sixteen others, it is highly recommended. Serious teaching of the Holocaust started in earnest only long after World War II, when the horrors were at a distance and survivors started breaking the silence. Only then did systematic research begin. Teaching about the Holocaust developed as a result of Holocaust consciousness and of the growing feeling of its relevance to American culture. Such instruction also developed against a background of ongoing public debate concerning the Holocausts uniqueness, a controversy that has found its way into various teaching programs. 相似文献

This article provides an overview of education after and about Auschwitz (Holocaust education)* in Germany in both theory
and practice, with particular attention to three critical areas. The first is the status of research in, as Adorno famously
phrased it, “education after Auschwitz” within the context of contemporary Germany. German society is pluralistic, and is
built on the third and fourth generations of young Germans since the National Socialist Era. These Germans cannot and do not
want to be identified as perpetrators, but they must deal with a strong and growing right-wing extremist movement. The second
area, given these challenges, is the fact that Holocaust education can fail. And finally, the European dimension of Holocaust
remembrance means teaching about Auschwitz in the context of a general effort to resist inhumanity, as well as attempts to
identify the connections between learning after and about Auschwitz, on the one hand, and learning and understanding human
rights as a European and global vision on the other. 相似文献

The article considers how young people in Swiss schools are taught about the history and background of the Holocaust within
the wider perspective of human rights education, as an important basis for education concerning democratic citizenship. Given
the country’s specific history, for decades the Holocaust was not a matter of great interest in Swiss schools, or a topic
that pupils often learned about as a part of their own history. Recently, however, sensitivity about historical incidents
and the processes of the Third Reich has increased. Holocaust education has also become more important in the context of Swiss
state institutional policy and non-governmental initiatives and has also become an issue in schools. This article includes
an overview of relevant Swiss history and the current political situation, and a review of Swiss educational policies and
especially of activities related to Holocaust remembrance and human rights education. 相似文献

Education at Holocaust museums worldwide often falls to volunteer museum educators. The Durban Holocaust Centre in South Africa is no different. We set out to understand who the educators at the Durban Holocaust Centre were, where their historical and pedagogical knowledge came from, and to examine the connection between the two. The study revealed the diverse nature of the museum educators’ biographies as well as their motivations for guiding. Their knowledge acquisition was generally a blend of formal objectivist and informal constructivist methods. It emerged that the self-learning model was successful as the educators were highly professional and sufficiently motivated. 相似文献

This conceptual paper aims to characterize science teachers’ practical knowledge utilizing a virtue-based theory of knowledge and the Aristotelian notion of phronesis/practical wisdom. The article argues that a greater understanding of the concept of phronesis and its relevance to science education would enrich our understandings of teacher knowledge, its development, and consequently models of teacher education. Views of teacher knowledge presented in this paper are informed by philosophical literature that questions normative views of knowledge and argues for a virtue-based epistemology rather than a belief-based one. The paper first outlines general features of phronesis/practical wisdom. Later, a virtue-based view of knowledge is described. A virtue-based view binds knowledge with moral concepts and suggests that knowledge development is motivated by intellectual virtues such as intellectual sobriety, perseverance, fairness, and humility. A virtue-based theory of knowledge gives prominence to the virtue of phronesis/practical wisdom, whose primary function is to mediate among virtues and theoretical knowledge into a line of action that serves human goods. The role of phronesis and its relevance to teaching science are explained accordingly. I also discuss differences among various characterizations of practical knowledge in science education and a virtue-based characterization. Finally, implications and further questions for teacher education are presented. 相似文献
