After years of working in Holocaust education not only as an academic and in the university environment but also in the public school system, Schmoll became also an author and consultant for academic and school teaching materials, both digital and traditional print. Based on her own academic research and the studies she has conducted, Schmoll also decided to become active in practice.
Schmoll knows firsthand that the existing teaching and learning materials in Holocaust education could often be improved, and that there are many approaches that would be helpful here–if only they were put into practice. Because of the massive increase in hatred of Jews worldwide, the question whether Holocaust education had failed increasingly arose.
