Education on the Holocaust and on Anti-Semitism : An overview and analysis of Educational Approaches Année de publication: 2006 Auteur institutionnel: OSCE. Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) This study provides both the background on what is already being done in the field of Holocaust education and the identification of good practices to support future efforts by OSCE states and civil society. It also highlights new challenges that need to be addressed in education on both the Holocaust and on anti-Semitism. The first part of the study is based on information provided to the ODIHR by national ministries of education; national delegations of the Task Force for International Cooperation on Holocaust Education, Remembrance and Research (ITF); experts; educators; Jewish communities; and NGOs, in response to a questionnaire sent out by the ODIHR between December 2004 and April 2005. Comprehensive recommendations regarding Holocaust education conclude this first part of the overview. The second part of this report constitutes a first step in this regard: using country overviews on four OSCE states, it highlights the need to supplement Holocaust education in response to new forms of anti-Semitism and provides a number of relevant recommendations.

Developing Positive Values: A case study of Holocaust Memorial Day in the primary schools of one local authority in Scotland Many schools and local authorities saw the initial Holocaust Memorial Day as an important stimulus to develop lessons and events in Holocaust history amongst young people of vital importance for today. The focus of this paper is to examine the potential for Holocaust education in the primary curriculum in Scotland and whether the instance of Holocaust Memorial Day and the undertaking of a serious commitment to it by a local authority had an impact on the teaching and raising of Holocaust issues in the primary schools in that area. The authors previously argued (Maitles & Cowan, 1999) that there needed to be a major commitment from the Scottish Executive and/or local councils to encourage teachers and schools to coordinate or introduce Holocaust education in the schools. To test this, the field research for this survey was conducted by means of a questionnaire to every primary school in the local authority and achieved a 91% response rate. Strong national commitment to Holocaust educational activities, backed up by commitment from the local authority, in terms of staff development and teaching materials, ensured a quality of experience as well as the quantity. Linked to this was an effective structure in the schools, with a designated Holocaust education coordinator and the involvement of the wider community. This led teachers in schools to imaginatively develop pupil skills, knowledge and understanding and informed attitudes in Holocaust history which potentially has a resonance in the wider citizenship area.

Values and Attitudes - Positive and Negative: A study of the impact of teaching the Holocaust on citizenship among Scottish 11-12 year olds Previous research on teaching the Holocaust, notably case studies in the primary or the secondary sectors, suggests that Holocaust education can make a significant contribution to citizenship by developing pupils’ understandings of justice, tolerance, human rights issues, and the many forms of racism and discrimination. Yet, there have been no longitudinal studies into its impact on primary pupils. This paper reports on the first stages of ongoing longitudinal research (sponsored by the Scottish Executive Education Department) and concentrates on the relevance of Holocaust education to citizenship, by comparing the attitudes of primary 7 pupils before and after Holocaust teaching using data from questionnaires. Results show an improvement in pupils’ values and attitudes after learning about the Holocaust in almost every category related to minority groups, ethnic or otherwise. One significant finding was a deep anti-English feeling and this in itself indicates the need for further investigation. (By the author)
