Teaching the Holocaust Using AR & the Sobibor Uprising

This session introduces participants to an innovative Augmented Reality (AR) application that focuses on primary sources from a Holocaust survivor of Sobibor, Thomas Blatt. The workshop will provide guidance on how to navigate this technology and use it to enhance lessons, including strategies for integrating primary sources into teaching materials and facilitating classroom discussions. Attendees will also learn the history of the Sobibor death camp and Thomas Blatt's story of survival and resilience.
