Learning from history — experience of totalitarian regimes of the 20th century

The project adopts a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to address the gaps in the Polish educational system regarding the history of World War II, the Holocaust, and anti-Semitic attitudes. The methodology integrates innovative educational tools, participatory learning techniques, and collaborative partnerships to achieve the project’s objectives.

We present a unique report by Alicja Kotowska and Karolina Marcinkowska – the result of a nationwide survey conducted among teachers and educators as part of the Educational Toolkit project. The report fills a gap in research by focusing not on students, but on the psychosocial and methodological challenges teachers face when teaching about traumatic past events.
