Abstract |
"This presentation has two theoretical starting points. Against a more socio-cultural background there can be observed an ongoing discussion about the future of Holocaust Remembrance more than fifty, sixty years after the Nazi-crimes. Considering “Learning from the past�? as a key term for contemporary politics of commemoration there can be identified a strong and sustainable pedagogical construction of history memory. In the public sphere surprisingly or not the task that one should learn from history is primarily interpreted as a mission of education, particularly of school history instruction. The second starting point of this presentation refers more to a specific educational research perspective. From this perspective I want to focus on the relation between the curricular treatment of the Holocaust in pedagogical concepts and the communicative treatment in classroom instruction. My thesis is that there exist a fundamental difference between both pedagogical forms. In my opinion this difference has to become a theoretical premise for educational curriculum research. The presentation is based on an empirical study, which was carried out in two twelfth-grade Gymnasium history classes during two three-month sessions. For those who are not familiar with the German School System: Twelfth-grade Gymnasium history classes means that the students are from 17 to 18. It’s that academic track that should open the door for joining a university career. The class sessions were recorded on audio-tape, transcribed, and analysed according to a qualitative interpretation approach. The order of the presentation is the following: Firstly, I give an overview of the way how the education system has dealt with the challenge of Holocaust Memory on a curricular level. Then I shortly point out the theoretical background of the term “The pedagogical form classroom instruction�?. Thirdly I summarise the main empirical results of our study. And finally I will propose some conclusions concerning the relevance of these results for curriculum research." Added by: Agnès Cavet Last edited by: Agnès Cavet |
