Dear subscriber,

We are delighted to be sending you another issue of The Jewish Portal of Teacher Education resource list.

The Coronavirus is still with us and seems that it will not be leaving us soon. Many of our educational organizations have been consulting with educators around the world to try to see how we can restructure our educational models to deal with this challenging situation. We include a number of information items which present some of their findings. We also include relevant learning resources for the Tish’a B’av period of mourning as well as research findings and other Jewish education items.

We are happy to share with you Dr. Ainat Guberman’s summary of MOFET International’s international study-day, Building Education and Teacher Education Systems in Times of Crises and Changes and Avi Posen’s article about the numerous exciting digital resources of Unpacked for Educators. 

For those of you who missed the annual meeting of The MOFET International Forum of Hebrew Teachers held online on July 15, 2020, you can see the recordings of many of the sessions here. 

MOFET International is happy to invite you to our upcoming Hebrew language webinar (August 23, 2020) on “What is Good Hebrew? How Can We Improve Our Ivrit?” with Dr. Orly Albeck.

This month we are introducing a new feature on our portal for the benefit of our Spanish speaking readers, a new section - Educación judia which will include items about teacher training and Jewish education at The MOFET Institute and around the world - all in Spanish. Please pass on the link to this section to Spanish-speaking colleagues around the Jewish world.

Wishing you much health and strength,

Reuven Werber

The MOFET Portal Team
