After the session, students are encouraged to further explore other interesting histories related to the topic!
Any related note-taking supplies should the learners wish to take notes.
55 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

Given the intensity of the topic (Nazi Germany/the Third Reich) and related details, however, the session is most suited for older students. However, mature students of younger age are welcome with parent/guardian approval.
