Film Assignment for Holocaust
Directions: Students will write an essay concerning the DVDs shown in class. The purpose of the project is to have students analyze the presentations and how they influence their understanding of the Holocaust. This is not to be separate papers, but one paper noting how collectively the films create a mosaic of the tragedy that befell humanity between 1933 and 1945. The paper should be no less than five pages and the sky is the limit for the maximum number of pages required. The paper must be double-spaced and the font size should be no more than twelve pages. |
