Wiesen, Blossom
Mediterranean Journal of Educational Studies, v2 n2 p85-101 1997
Explores Bedouin student backgrounds to determine attitude transformations that enabled family and clan approval for their participation in an Israeli teacher-training program. Results show the existence of transformations within the tribe toward education, especially for women. Student attitudes toward becoming instruments of educational innovation are also explored. Ramifications pertaining to Bedouin society are discussed. (GR)
