This curriculum considers the role of learning in
sacred community. It gives one the concepts and
vocabulary necessary to think about what Jewish
learning is, why it is important, what its goals
ought to be, and how to make the synagogue a place
where learning happens everywhere. The curriculum is
designed to enable lay leaders to assist
professionals in taking moral responsibility for the
Jewish education in one's congregation.
A curriculum that studies Education based on the
following three assumptions:
-
Jewish Family Education is a process and a series
of relationships that provide families with tools
and resources over time.
-
Jewish Family Education is a constant process of
networking and empowering.
-
Jewish Family Education is a "context"
which should include everything from the
synagogue membership process to the way the High
Holydays are celebrated.
This curriculum allows the team to define Jewish
literacy, explore the motivations of the adult
learner, see the entire synagogue as an educational
tool, and share best practices in adult Jewish
learning from national models as well as our ancient
tradition.
