Just a variation of the classic blue eyes brown eyes experiment. There's value in it, but you gotta do it in an ethical way to people who fully understand the purpose. Otherwise, you'll just get experiments like the Milgram and Stanford Prison experiments with undesirable results for those involved.

Yeah 12-14 year olds is probably not the best target subject for this kind of mental experimentation and manipulation. Fucking idiot to do this to kids IMO

Whatever happened to reading I Am David? We read that in gr 6, and while it wasn't particularly graphic, it was written from a perspective a child that age could understand and if i recall it did a pretty good job of describing the struggle and persecution during the holocaust.
It's obvious this was well intentioned, but i don't believe it was a very good approach.
I don't think that this was well thought out, probably should not have been done.
I liked the idea of it, but the school clearly went about it the wrong way. The kids SHOULD have been told in advance. And it could be used to teach way way more than just how much the holocaust sucked.
This could, if excecuted properly, be a really good way to teach kids how rediculous any type of racism or segregation could be. But let them know a week ahead of time, and first do kids A through K, then L through Z, so both groups get the entire experience. Also, don't attach any one group to it. Don't make the persecuted group "Jews" or "Blacks" or anything. Talk about the history, but 'yellow stars' would have sufficed.
It was a pretty creative idea, they just didn't take their heads out of their asses before going through with it.
