Abstract | Although the Holocaust is widely taught in Toronto high schools, we currently have no knowledge of how this is taught. This dearth of research is significant in the light of studies suggesting that teachers of the Holocaust may compromise historical truth and fail to realise the subject's potential for promoting responsible citizenship. The critique by Lucy Dawidowicz is the best known of these studies and an expanded version of her work formed the basis for the assessment of Holocaust education in Toronto reported in this article. The attitudes and practices of 23 history teachers in the city are described and various ways in which the Holocaust may be trught more effectively are discussed. (DIPF/orig.) |
