The Internet already hosts a large number of quality sites dealing with the Holocaust and other genocides, but this site, created by a group of graduate students in a Development of Technology-Based Instruction course at the University of South Florida, deserves special attention. The site features an annotated Timeline that traces anti-Semitism, the Holocaust and their repercussions from 1918 to present with a large number of links to documents, photos, glossary definitions, and other sites with more details on specific topics. The People section discusses the experiences and roles of the victims, perpetrators, bystanders, resistors, liberators, and others. Educators will perhaps make the most use of the Student Activities and Teacher Resources sections, which currently contain sixteen lesson plans and an excellent comprehensive collection of annotated teaching resources.
