Throughout the session, the presenters share a series of activities related to the Holocaust, which model how geographic inquiry can be used with a variety of primary sources, such as photographs, oral histories, maps, and political cartoons. The session will be interactive with attendees investigating primary sources to learn how geographic inquiry can produce a more nuanced understanding of the Holocaust when juxtaposed with teaching history.<\/p>\n<h4>Session Focus<\/h4>\n<p>Secondary\/High School | Inquiry \u00a0| Primary Sources, Holocaust<\/p>\n<h4>Conference Room<\/h4>\n<p>Lewis<\/p>\n<h4>Meet the Presenter<\/h4>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-21886 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Ken-Carano-1-300x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"94\" height=\"94\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Ken-Carano-1-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Ken-Carano-1-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Ken-Carano-1.jpeg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 94px) 100vw, 94px\" \/>Ken Carano<\/strong> is a professor of social science education in the division of education &amp; leadership at Western Oregon University and programs coordinator for the Center for Geography Education in Oregon.
