Meet Holocaust survivor Pinchas Gutter. Through Dimensions in Testimony, students and educators can ask questions that prompt real-time responses from a pre-recorded video of Pinchas engaging in virtual conversation, redefining inquiry-based education.
With a microphone, you can have a conversation with Pinchas. Or you can use your keyboard to type questions. Pinchas and the other Holocaust Survivors have answered hundreds of questions featured in Dimensions In Testimony.
Pinchas Gutter was born to a Hasidic family in Lodz, Poland on July 21, 1932. Alongside his twin sister Sabina, he grew up in a religious Jewish community. Within a month of the Nazis’ 1939 invasion of Poland, the Gutter family, under false Christian identity, moved to Warsaw to avoid danger in their hometown. The family was interned in the Warsaw Ghetto, where they hid in a bunker during the April 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
Dimensions In Testimony was developed in association with the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center, with technology by the USC Institute for Create Technologies, and concept by Conscience Display.
