Aim of this research:
Teaching Holocaust history demands a high level of sensitivity and awareness of the complexity of the subject matter.

‘Exploring the Holocaust Part 3– Celebrating success’ is the third in a series of resources which assists teachers and students to research various ways in which different people reacted to the Nazi regime and produce a report which fully investigates the chosen topic. In Part 3, students peer- and self-assess the projects, reflect on their learning and celebrate success.
