2010/03/25: Teaching with Testimony: Lessons Learned

March 25, 2010: This plenary session follows up on earlier breakout sessions that addressed issues related to how context, teaching methodologies, and teaching objectives differ based on course discipline. This session is moderated by Mark Baker (Associate Professor, Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia). One representative from each of the four groups reports on:

  • Which teaching methodologies work best when integrating testimonies into courses?
  • How important is providing context for testimony in courses?
  • What challenges and problems arise when integrating testimony into courses?
  • What library and Institute support can be provided to encourage and help faculty and students to use testimonies in course work?
Technical issues with the video? Let us know.
