Course/Module description:
The history of Jewish education spans millennia. This course will give an overview of the history of Israeli education from its religious roots in the 18th century to the 1970s in the State of Israel. In the process of communicating this historical overview of Jewish and Israeli education we will witness the different roles of religion, nationalism, languages, politics, gender and culture in the formation of Israeli education. These forces also had a role in separating and integrating different segments of Israeli population, including, European and Mizrahi Jews and Arabs. This education system and its forces of integration and segregation emanated both from internal forces within the Jewish and Zionist world as well as from foreign forces and influences. Education in the Zionist movement and Israel played a crucial role in formulating the identity and nature of Israeli nationalism and in forming the state.
