This comprehensive
teacher's manual focuses on the Armenian Genocide of
1915 during which 1.5 million Armenians, half of the
Armenian population, were systematically annihilated. It
includes a 1-day, 2-day, and 10-day unit with all the
materials teachers will need, including more than two
dozen overheads, interactive classroom exercises and
more.
Discussions include a wide
range of topics related to the Armenian Genocide: the
history of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, primary
source documents, witness and survivor memoirs, maps and
political-economic timelines, and the problem of denial.

Genocide and the
Human Voice
An Interactive Online
Classroom for Students
"NICOLE'S JOURNEY" |
 |
|
www.LearnGenocide.com |
|
This
interactive online classroom provides students a
background to the history of the Armenian Genocide and
the effects of the denial of the Genocide on subsequent
generations. Nicole’s real life journey to the village
of her grandmother, now in Eastern Turkey, illustrates
the continued pain that genocide brings and the
fortitude of those searching for truth.
The
tutorial is divided into five sections. Each section
includes an assignment composed of short answer
questions and a writing-based assignment. Teachers will
be able to create classrooms within this interactive
plan where they will list their students (not personal
information about students will be collected) obtaining
for each a user name and password to access the lesson.
As students progress through the plan, the assignments
they complete will automatically be saved under their
user name for teachers to view at a later date.

CD-ROM
Voices of Survivors
The Armenian Genocide |
|
 |
Focusing on the experiences of individual survivors
helps to personalize and contextualize the massive
numbers of people who perished in the Armenian
Genocide as well as other genocides. Numbers like 11
million, 1.5 million, and 800,000 become abstract
figures that students accept without much thought.
By learning about individual experiences during
genocide, students gain a stronger sense of
connection to the event—the numbers are humanized. |
|
|
Utilizing the
"Twenty Voices" Map by Araz
Artinian and accompanied by a lesson plan created by
The Genocide Education Project,
this exercise allows students to get a
glimpse of the historic homeland of the Armenians that was
completely erased in only a few years, from 1915-1923.
Students learn what survivors had, what was lost, and can
begin to imagine the impact of this trauma on the rest of
their lives.

FROM FACING HISTORY AND
OURSELVES:
Crimes Against Humanity and Civilization: The Genocide
of the Armenians
Download |
Order
Facing
History's new resource book, Crimes Against Humanity
and Civilization: The Genocide of the Armenians,
combines the latest scholarship on the Armenian Genocide
with an interdisciplinary approach to history, enabling
students and |
|
teachers to make the
essential connections between history and their own
lives. By concentrating on the choices that individuals,
groups, and nations made before, during, and after the
genocide, readers have the opportunity to consider the
dilemmas faced by the international community in the
face of massive human rights violations.
While focusing on the
Armenian Genocide during World War I, the book considers
the many legacies of the Armenian Genocide including
Turkish denial and the struggle for the recognition of
genocide as a "crime against humanity." The book can be
integrated into courses dealing with multiple genocides,
human rights, as well as history courses covering the
late 19th century and World War I as well as U.S.
international relations. |

FROM THE CHOICES PROGRAM:
Confronting
Genocide: Never Again?
Download/Order
Overview of the Unit - The genocides of the
twentieth century elicited feelings of horror and
revulsion throughout the world. Yet both the
international community and the United States have
struggled to respond to this recurring problem.
Confronting Genocide: Never Again? traces the evolution
of the international community's response to genocide
and examines how the United States has responded to five
cases of |
|
|
genocide. The evaluation
of multiple perspectives, informed debate, and problem
solving strategies that comprise this unit enable
students to develop their own policy suggestions
concerning America’s response to future genocide.
