P2908 Intern--*Museum of Jewish Heritage; This opportunity, the Lipper Internship Program at the Museum of Jewish Heritage-A Living Memorial to the Holocaust, is a semester-long program designed for college and graduate students from a variety of fields and backgrounds. The ideal candidate will have a desire to learn and educate; an appreciation for museums; and an ability to work well with others. Prior to the beginning of the semester, Interns attend an intensive 10-day training session at the Museum in New York City to learn how to teach public middle and high school students about the Holocaust. (Lodging is provided during the training period, if necessary.) During training, Interns meet with Museum staff, hear testimony from Holocaust survivors, and learn methods for teaching from artifacts in the Museum's collection. Following training, Interns partner with several middle and high schools in their college communities, providing an introductory lesson in the classroom followed by a school field trip and guided tour of the Museum. Interns then return to the classroom one last time to facilitate a discussion about the lessons learned during the course of the program. Interns receive a stipend and are reimbursed for travel expenses. The application deadline for the fall 2012 semester is April 1, 2012. Interested students may also contact Loren Silber directly at (646) 437-4273, or download an application here: http://www.mjhnyc.org/documents/LipperApplication.pdf.
