Teaching future Jewish life through a cross-generation future oriented curriculum
Lecturer
This article describes an effort of a Hebrew school and its Jewish community to facilitate interaction among parents, teachers, and teenagers. The interaction aimed at helping the community confront communal Jewish trends in order to generate new thoughts and solutions. Prior research has shown that when people are encouraged to think and speak about their future, their thoughts become more positive and solution-oriented. In the curriculum of this Hebrew school we have implemented a procedure to improve participants' ability to enact change and to develop future-images. This article describes the curricular procedure and the images that emerged.
