Deep Change in Congregational Education
Sales, Amy L.; Samuel, Nicole; Koren, Annette; Shain, Michelle
Journal of Jewish Education, v76 n4 p358-378 2010
The Re-Imagine Project (of the Experiment in Congregational Education) is an attempt to engender innovation in congregational schools. A long-term study of 24 participating congregations in Greater New York examined the extent to which the effort yielded new models of education (radical change). The study included surveys of task force members and interviews with 101 key informants. Results show four patterns of change: radical, replacement of old forms with new forms, creation of alternatives, and addition of programs. Factors related to starting points, the change process, and resources were found to influence which synagogues achieved deeper levels of change. (Contains 2 tables.)
