Teaching Sacred Texts in the Classroom: The Pedagogy of "Transmission" and the Pedagogy of "Interpretive Facilitation"
Hassenfeld, Ziva R.
Journal of Jewish Education, v83 n4 p339-366 2017
Empirical research in Jewish education has found almost exclusive use of "transmission" pedagogy among Jewish studies teachers. This study hoped to fill out the empirical landscape by studying Jewish studies teachers who prioritize student-driven interpretation. It followed six Jewish studies teachers in four different Jewish elementary schools who all professed a commitment to student-driven textual interpretation. It found that in such classrooms there was a clear pattern of teaching moves. This article offers a detailed portrait of the previously undocumented Jewish studies pedagogy, "interpretive facilitation."
