On my observation, one of the Social Studies Teachers showed this animation while teaching WW2. Unfortunately, this version isn't as good quality as the one he had but it would do. I thought it was a useful visual to give a quick overview of events, pulling it all together in a chronological and spacial way. I'm a visual learner so it was great for me to see. I think it's important to deliver the information in many different ways. Hope you find it useful.
I should also mention the DVD set that he recommended. (This teacher is into spending part of almost every class watching a video, which worked well for him.) He thought that the DVD set World at War was great for teaching WW2. It was originally a 26-episode British production made in 1969, but was remastered in 2000. There's a wikipedia entry about the set if you want some more info (can't guarantee it will be accurate though...giggle).
