Historicizing the Uses of the Past: Scandinavian Perspectives on History Culture, Historical Consciousness and Didactics of History Related to World War II This book presents new developments in Scandinavian memory cultures related to World War II and the Holocaust by combining this focus with the perspective of history didactics. The theoretical framework of historical consciousness offers an approach linking individual and collective uses and re-uses of the past to the question how history can and should be taught. It also offers some examples of good practice in this field. The book promotes a teaching practice which, in taking the social constructivist notions of historical consciousness as a starting point, can contribute to self-reflecting and critical thinking - being fundamental for any democratic political culture.

Holocaust Education and English Language Learner Students - Reflections on Teaching the Shoah Teaching the Holocaust involves confronting many challenges regardless of the setting involved. The complex nature of Holocaust history demands that students and teachers function at high intellectual levels as they study that history, and the need to determine how sensitive topics should be approached challenges educators in ways that are not present when teaching most other topics. Thus, any teaching of the Shoah places significant demands on teachers‘ content knowledge and pedagogical expertise. These demands increase when educators teach students whose backgrounds differ from those of the general population. Specifically, students whose language skills limit their understanding of texts and classroom dialogue face multiple challenges as they seek to learn within new school environments. Moreover, the distinctive cultural milieu and life experiences that form the frames of references from which these students approach the study of all social studies topics make it imperative that teachers build curricula that include culturally relevant perspectives in order to ensure that students are provided an opportunity to learn material at sophisticated levels. This paper considers how these factors influence the teaching of the Shoah in a Roman Catholic high school located in a major city in the western United States. More than 80% of the school’s students are either immigrants to the United States or members of the first generation of their families to be born in this country; thus, most students have been identified as English Language Learners (ELLs), a category used to determine if special language services should be provided to them. This paper overviews English language learning in the United States and teaching social studies to ELL students before discussing teaching the Holocaust in a parochial school whose primary focus is on teaching ELL students.

Challenging stereotypes and avoiding the superficial: A suggested approach to teaching the Holocaust Alison Kitson provides a rationale for a scheme of work for Year 9 (13-14 year olds). She argues that teachers should analyse the kind of historical learning that is taking place when the Holocaust is studied. Critical of the assumption that learning will take place as a result of exposure, she argues that teachers need to think about learning outcomes and to explore how these connect and support each other. She draws upon the types of historical thinking specified by the National Curriculum in England and shows how these can link up with areas of knowledge that pupils need if they are to understand the context of the Holocaust. Like Kate Hammond, she argues that emotional, human response and moral learning can and should be involved in teaching the Holocaust and that this can support ‒ rather than detract from ‒ rigorous historical analysis of sources and causes.
