| Abstract | Numerous research and scholarly articles have been written on the Korean War. Yet in many K-12 history classrooms, the war and its legacy are still "forgotten" and are only addressed with a paragraph or two in a textbook. The Korean War Legacy and World History Digital Education foundations are changing this situation by honoring veterans, preserving their stories, and creating online teaching materials for the social studies classroom. The new online resources include an interactive narrative history of the war, C3 Framework aligned curricular resources, a special documentary film, and the largest collection of Korean War Veterans' interviews from 12 UN countries that participated in the war (with interviews from the other 10 UN countries to be completed by 2020) (www.koreanwarlegacy.org). The central feature of the web resource is the Memory Bank of historical texts combined with short oral history videos from the 1,100 interviews of veterans collected by the Korean War Legacy Foundation. The efforts to preserve the oral histories of veterans and create curricular resources based on these stories are one way to preserve this critical part of our history. Designed by teachers, for teachers, the inquiry-based materials connect the powerful sacrifice of UN soldiers over 70 years ago to the accomplishments of the present-day country and ally of the United States that South Korea has become. In an age of tension with its totalitarian neighbor to the north, the impact of South Korea's history has never been more relevant or powerful. (ERIC). |
