A workshop session on Sunday
Hebrew Institute News
Isaac Meiseles, the Principal of thp Hebrew Institute of Atlanta,
has just returned from Jerusalem, Israel, where he spent his vaca
tion brushing up on the “Old and New in Jewish Education.” He
attended a colorful seminary on the above theme in the annual
summer school for Hebrew school teachers and directors. The school
is sponsored by the Hebrew University in cooperation with the
Hebrew Teacher’s Organization. The faculty members are professors
and instructors from various colleges and are all experts in them
field. The prgram was very intensive and stretched throughout all
hours of the day.
The many courses were divided into methodological subject
courses and educational administrative courses.
The courses included: New methods and new aids in teaching;
Problems in religious training; Teen-age problems; Text books for
the advanced and the slow; 'Hie class as a social group; Teacher
class relations; The uncooperative student; Psychology of boredom in
the classroom.
Some of the administrative courses were: Introduction to Edu
cational administration in the Hebrew School; Advice to Parents;
Conversation and Interview; Administrative Problems.
It was extremely interesting to hear the reaction from the many
participants who had assembled from varied schools and areas.
One of the major points of interest was the success of teaching
Hebrew to immigrants who have recently arrived in Israel. Many
experiments have lately been done, and it is hoped that some of
them can be successfully applied outside of Israel.
The many educators participated actively and with enthusiasm,
each revealing his own experience, successes, and failures in the
subjects discussed.
Mr. Meiseles commented, “No doubt all the educators who as
sembled in Jerusalem to study and reflect will return to their own
schools richer in ideas and pedagorglc orientation. It would be well
if all Hebrew school teachers will stop to learn and attend, from
time to time, a seminary devoted to subject matter.”
“The magnificent campus of the Hebrew University and the
national library with its large educational department, no doubt
helps create the spirit of knowledge and study. In such surround
ings with so many devoted and enlightened colleagues, the will to
do more and do it better arises. With a will and a way, Jewish
Education shall go from strength to strength.
“It is my hope that my own experience in Israel will contribute
in some measure to the continuing success of the Hebrew Institute
of Atlanta.”
