Description

This HISTOLAB Tutorial showcases ways in which history educators can integrate gender perspectives into their teaching practice. They offer practical guidance by presenting both suitable methods and resources to use in the classroom. While in the first half, Dr Georgina CHRISTOU (University of Cyprus) showcases materials and teaching practices that allow teachers to meaningfully address women's history, in the second half Gabriella KOMOLY (Zachor Foundation, Hungary) demonstrates ways to teach about the persecution of LGBTQI+ persons under the Nazi regime based on the digital archive iWitness of the USC Shoah Foundation.
