Participants explore how the Holocaust Learning Experience is teaching resiliency, empathy, and character development through the lens of the Holocaust. Educators learn how the program impacts students and teachers by fostering understanding, encouraging individuals to stand up for others, and helping transform generations to confront hate, bigotry, bias, and antisemitism.
Top Three Learning Objectives · Learn how The Holocaust Learning Experience (HLE) a free resource to any school district, has filled a gap in traditional Holocaust Education. · Learn how the HLE program has impacted students, how fast it is growing and how easy it is to implement. · Hear how the HLE has curated Holocaust and genocide related information from all of the scholarly resources that educators are typically sent to in order to create their own lesson plans.
