LEARN Web Events allowed subject-matter specialists, teachers, consultants & administrators to come together to investigate topics that are of interest to them. Using our online platform, educators from anywhere connected, shared and learned. Each month, a new live web event was scheduled with a completely different focus and target audience.

If you missed one... we've got you covered! Check out the archived web events (up to 2017) below and feel free to share your favourites with your esteemed colleagues.

Exploring the Holocaust with your Students

It is 70 years since the liberation of Auschwitz and for some this is ancient history. The Holocaust remains a defining event of the 20th Century. Exploring the Holocaust can be difficult but it is important that students learn to examine tough topics which remain relevant today. Learn about the many primary source materials (interviews, videos, documents…) and tools as well as literature, drama and art opportunities that can give students a variety of approaches to help them comprehend this issue.
