REMEMBERING AND TEACHING THE
A PROGRAM COMMEMORATING HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE DAY BY
PROVIDING SUPPORT AND INSIGHTS ON TEACHING THE HOLOCAUST
Sponsored by Purdue University Calumet's School of Education and its Diversity Committee,
School of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, and the Jewish Federation of Northwest Indiana
  On May 2, 2008 - Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom Hashoa) - Purdue University Calumet was the venue for "Remembering
and Teaching the Holocaust," a program designed, organized, and hosted by
Dr. Saul Lerner, Professor of History.

Dr. Gordon Mork, Professor of History, offered an engaging keynote presentation, "Teaching the Holocaust."  He modeled
awareness-raising, interactive lessons and provided effective teaching strategies and resources.

Saying "the holocaust would have been impossible without a 'them and us' mindset," Associate Professor of Special Education,
Dr. Tom Mihail, presented his video, "'Unworthy of Life:'  The Holocaust and People with Disabilities," which traces the eugenics
movement and documents genocide.

Dr. Lynn Zimmerman, Associate Professor of Education, shared personal experiences focusing on the paradox of anti-semitism
and holocaust education in Poland.

Associate Professor of English,
Dr. Lizbeth Bryant, discussed and recommended holocaust literature, especially highlighting
Viktor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning."

The program concluded with a panel discussion by the presenters, moderated by Dr. Lerner.  Interacting with the audience of
50 participants, which included area educators, the panel promoted the mission of remembering and teaching the holocaust.
This site serves as a portal to resources in support of that mission.
