Facing History and Ourselves: Educator Resources

Since its founding in 1976, the creators of Facing History and Ourselves have stressed the importance of educators in shaping "a humane, well-educated citizenry that practices civility and preserves human rights." For teachers who align with these values, this assortment of Educator Resources offers a virtual trove of aids, lesson plans, activities, and other tools that focus on how history took shape and how it continues to shape the present. While a number of these resources are only available to those with a free user profile, numerous items are available without logging in and are free of charge. The Highlights from Our Collection selection provides a nice overview of the items that are available here, including tremendous materials on topics such as Holocaust and Human Behavior and Race and Membership in American History. There are also materials related to Elie Wiesel's classic memoir, Night, a multimedia resource that tells the story of twelve diplomats who assisted Jews during the Holocaust, and other items designed to help students understand the range of human behavior. Each project includes impressive background information, key questions, and other orienting ideas.
