Lee Associate Professor of Jewish Education at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Reli) \"This is a must-read book for anyone seeking to develop a more informed and carefully theorized understanding of Jewish education, its past, present and future.  As a cutting-edge researcher in the field of Jewish education, Kelman has so much to teach those of us who care about what Jews are learning today and how they are learning it.\" - Steven Weitzman (Ella Darivoff Director of the Herbert D. Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University o) \"Ari Kelman teaches us that Jewish education is as broad and diverse as all of Jewish culture and life. When seen through his eyes, Jewish education is not simply a project that some Jews undertake, for some years of their life, in some specific locations like schools or synagogues or camps. Instead, Jewish education happens everywhere that Jews enact Jewish culture and bring other Jews into that culture.\" - Jon A. Levisohn (associate professor and the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Center chair in Jewish Educational Though) \"The literature on Jewish education has largely centered on the teacher, and the educator’s goals and practice over the ages. By examining how students confront and absorb the Jewish content to which they are introduced, Kelman adds an important dimension to our understanding of the field.\" - Carol K.

And what is the best way to teach it? Ari Y Kelman upends these conventional approaches by asking a different question: How do people learn to engage in Jewish life? This book, by centering learning, provides an innovative way of approaching the questions that are central to Jewish education specifically and to religious education more generally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e At the heart of \u003ci\u003eJewish Education\u003c\/i\u003e is an innovative alphabetical primer of Jewish educational values, qualities, frameworks, catalysts, and technologies which explore the historical ways in which Jewish communities have produced and transmitted knowledge. The book examines the tension between Jewish education and Jewish Studies to argue that shifting the locus of inquiry from “what people ought to know” to “how do people learn” can provide an understanding of Jewish education that both draws on historical precedent and points to the future of Jewish knowledge.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eForeword\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: The Toughest Kid in Hebrew School\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePart I Terms of the Debate\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Estranged Siblings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePart II State of the Question\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Logics of Production: Values, Qualities, Frameworks\u003cbr\u003e Modes of Transmission: Catalysts and Technologies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePart III In a New Key\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Learning in Jewish Education\u003cbr\u003e Conclusion: Education Everywhere\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Notes\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52640481411352,"sku":"9781978835634","price":71.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/jewish-education-hardback-9781978835634","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
