Teaching Controversy When Israel is Controversial - Prizmah Conference
Robbie will be running a workshop at the Prizmah conference exploring the challenge of teaching “maximally controversial” topics and asking how Israel education might benefit or suffer from being treated as “controversial”.
Where does Israel fit in your whole school environment? Does the place of Israel live as harmoniously in the hearts of your teachers as it does in the hearts of your students or parents?
In this workshop, Robbie will explore the challenge of teaching “maximally controversial” topics (Zimmerman and Robertson), and ask how Israel education might benefit or suffer from being treated as “controversial”. Which pedagogies should we retire, and which innovate?
If you're at the Prizmah Conference 2023 in January, don't miss Robbie's workshop!
