This student produced presentation provides a great exploration of the Japanese-American Internment Camps during World War II, but should be used primarily as a discussion tool. The presentation includes photos, audio and pictures of documents relating to the Japanese-American internment. However, the quotes used, and some of the slides, should be reviewed by teachers before being shown to the class.
