Night

Studying the Holocaust can be a deeply emotional experience on many levels. The unfathomable loss of life and appalling record of man’s inhumanity to man provokes deep sadness, anger, and confusion in all who are capable of compassion and reason. My hope is that this page can be used to process some of our emotions and to expand our knowledge and understanding of the Holocaust. The US Holocaust Memorial Museum Website (http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10005143) houses a compilation of secondary and primary sources. In the course of the coming week, as we read //Night//, I would like for you to do some extra research using the website on the topics listed below. After exploring the site on the assigned topic, respond to the prompts listed below by clicking on the topic’s link. Post your response on this “Discussion” link. TRY TO RESPOND TO THESE PROMPTS FOR EACH TOPIC IN YOUR DISCUSSION: 1. This is knowledge that I gained on this topic. (Something you did not know before.) 2. These are questions that I have about this topic. 3. This is something I would like to discuss about this topic. 4. Try to respond to other students' postings as well.
