| Pearl Harbor: History, Memory, Memorial
This proposal outlines a plan for two one-week workshops that provide 80 humanities teachers with training and experience in the use and interpretation of the USS Arizona Memorial, the historic site devoted to honoring those who died in the 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and related material and archival resources. Through historic site visits, lectures by scholars, and sessions led by experienced teachers, participants will explore the historical significance and meanings of the attack. Participants will also develop technology-enhanced lesson plans that apply their new understanding in their teaching.
