Title: Heroes of the Holocaust Forum
Course: BC-Genocide Studies 12-1.1.0.0-XT > Section: Unit 3: Escalation of the Holocaust

Instructions:

Do online or library-based research to discover the story of one person who you believe acted in a heroic way during the Holocaust. Find enough biographical and historical details to be able to convey their story to your classmates in a well-written summary.

Topics you may want to explore may include:

- Actions they took that preserved and valued lives beyond their own
- Ways in which they behaved sacrificially or risked their own safety
- The results of their actions

You then must respond to another student in your class by replying to their post. Your second post should add additional details to the story of the hero, which may require additional research on your part

Create an informal list with links to your sources at the bottom of your post so that others can check your research and learn more.

The use of Generative AI is not allowed in this assignment at any stage. The use of editing software such as Grammarly is allowed, but only to identify mistakes, not to rewrite entire sentences or paragraphs.

Your posts will be marked according to the rubric below.
