Arizona Memorial (the national historic site commemorating the Pearl Harbor attack), explores the “living history” of Pearl Harbor/Hawaii within the context of U.S. foreign policy–and more specifically U.S.-Japan relations–and helps make connections between the methods of public history and classroom applications.
		Activities include presentations and discussions on content and pedagogy, lesson demonstrations, technology training, and curriculum development sessions in cohort groups using Southeast Asia materials.
		Participants will use historic site visits, presentation content, primary source materials, including personal narratives, veteran survivor stories, and newspaper accounts from U.S. and Japanese perspectives as Hawaiian, to devise standards-aligned lessons and “curricular roadmaps” aimed at developing historical and critical thinking skills and perspective consciousness.
