Studying Culturally Valued Texts: Teachers' Conception vs. Students' Conceptions.
Shkedi, Asher
Teaching and Teacher Education, v17 n3 p333-47 Apr 2001
Interviewed Israeli teachers and students studying culturally valued texts, focusing on their respective conceptions of Bible studies. Students saw their encounter with the Bible as first and foremost a process of cultural encounter with the text. Teachers saw their role as one of imparting knowledge and one that was nearly devoid of any cultural dimension. (SM)
