Still Weaving...

Throughout this process I have found a number of resources on this topic. Most of them have been very reliable and thought the best way to organize the materials I have used was to put them into a pathfinder. I have found websites, books, and documentaries that capture this historic period. You can view my pathfinder at: https://oncourse.iu.edu/access/content/user/mscline/The%20Holocaust%20Pathfinder.pdf

While reading through all of the resources I came up with a few more questions that I wanted information on:
*What are Ghettos?
*How did the deportation of the Jews to concentration camps happen?
*What are the statistics of the atrocities during this period of time?

I have also decided that with the information I have learned from these resources I am going to put together a power point describing this period in time with pictures and notes. Sometimes pictures can speak louder then words. Authors Callison and Preddy define visual literacy as, "the ability to understand and use images, including the ability to think, learn, and express oneself in terms of images [...]" (423) I plan to apply all of the information I have learned by organizing my power point by topic.

Enjoy the pathfinder, I hope you will find the resources helpful!
