| Description |
|
This article presents an innovative professional development project, Facing the Past-Transforming Our Future, developed collaboratively by the Western Cape Educational Department, the Cape Town Holocaust Centre, and the U.S.-based teacher professional development organization Facing History and Ourselves (FHAO). Facing the Past was designed to support teachers in the introduction of the new South African history curriculum and, in particular, the 9th grade history requirement to teach human rights issues during and after WWII. Two major components of the 9th grade content framework are Nazi Germany and the Holocaust and apartheid South Africa. |
