Wassermann, Selma – Phi Delta Kappan, 2001
Creating a CD-ROM to enrich the 11th-grade social-studies curriculum was challenging, but rewarding. Draft storyboards and stock World War II footage soon led to a digital production called "Presumed Enemies," which put the events surrounding the internment of Japanese Canadians and Japanese Americans into historical context.
