Conclusion
In
exploring the experiences of those who lived through the Holocaust, you realized
that there are many perspectives to the same event. You should have also realized
that it is possible to understand and empathize with a point of view without
necessarily agreeing with it. Hopefully this WebQuest has allowed you to see
the events of the Holocaust from divergent angles. By creating the individual
publication, you were able to see more clearly what life was like for a person
living in this time period. In the discussion with your group and the formulation
of the group paper, you were able to explore opposing roles. This allowed you
to experience a range of views from people of completely different backgrounds
than your own role.
Now that you have scrutinized this disaster, can you see the presence of anti-Semitism today? What modern day genocide is still occurring? Could a tragedy of such a scale happen again in the future? How could it be prevented?
