How to teach the Holocaust to Middle School Students : Increasing Empathy Through Multisensory Education

This study examines the relationships among seventh-grade students' achievement scores, attitudes toward instructional approaches, empathy scales, and the transfer of skills between traditional versus multisensory education. The Learning Style Inventory (LSI) was employed to determine learning-style preferences. The data collected in this study was subjected to statistical analyses, supporting the use of a multisensory, rather than a traditional, approach for teaching lessons of the Holocaust.
