Religious and Scientific Instruction on Evolution and Origins in Israeli Schools
Pear, Rachel S. A.; Berger, Dov; Klein, Meir
Religious Education, v115 n3 p323-334 2020
With more investigation into the reception of evolution in non-Christian majority cultures, and the increased awareness that anti-evolution sentiment is a global phenomenon, new educational resources are being developed to meet newly understood needs. This article explores the situation in Israel regarding conceptions of the compatibility of evolution and religion, as well as the educational initiatives being developed to advance dialogue. Included in the article are data from a study in a Jewish, Muslim and Christian school regarding stakeholders' views on evolution, as well as insights from the first professional development course for Israeli teachers on "Evolution and Faith."
