Description

EuroClio—European Association of History Educators, in partnership with Terraforming, Intercultural Institute Timișoara, and the Arolsen Archives—invites history teachers living in Germany, Romania, Serbia and other countries to apply for the International Teacher Training Seminar focused on the pedagogy of place-based learning within the context of a local history project about the history of victims of Nazi persecution and crimes committed during the Second World War by Nazi collaborators. The Seminar is part of the project Facts Not Fiction—Young Historians Show How to Learn from the Past, funded by the European Union. This project will set up students to develop their own local history projects about different groups of people that were persecuted by the Nazis and their collaborators. By conducting local research, accessing historical sources, and collaborating with different institutions such as archives and museums, students gain tools to share their unique knowledge with a wider audience in their community and share personal histories of victims that are lesser-known. This will invite students to step into the shoes of public historians. For this Seminar, we are looking for Team Members who implement place-based learning local history projects with their students who will research the history of different victims of Nazi persecution and share the findings with a wider audience through co-created exhibitions, podcasts, graphic novels and heritage tours in their locale. To apply, please send one Letter of Motivation written by you and your Team Member, and CVs of both Team Members to contact@terraforming.org We would also like to receive a Letter of Support from your school or institution. Please submit by 1 July 2024.
