Adult Education in Israel IV.
Kirmayer, Paul, Ed.; Michaelson, Serena T., Ed.
This fourth journal edition, oriented towards the topic of adult education and the community in Israel, focuses on these two major themes: the different approaches to analyzing and understanding the community, its populations, and its connection to adult education; and educational institutions and cultural entities within the community. Seventeen papers are included, organized in five parts. Part I, New Directions in Adult Education, includes "New Directions in Continuing Education: Towards the 21st Century" (Peter Jarvis) and "Judaism as a model for the Creation of a Learning Society" (Jonathan Mirvis). Part II, Adult Education and the Community: Approaches and Populations, contains the following five papers: "An Andragogic-Developmental Model in Community Work" (Rachel Tokatli); "Schools for Community Activists: A Report of the First Decade's Experience" (Alan S. York and Hank Havassy); "The Contribution of Adult Education in the Family in the Community" (Rina Cohen); "Basic Education for Immigrant Adults Hagoshrim Project" (Yaffa Schuster); and "Returning from the Dark" (Graciella Spector). These six papers make up Part III, Educational Institutions and Cultural Creativity within the Community: "The Community School--Education via Partnerships" (Yardena Harpaz); "The Popular University--The Classic Model vs. the Community Model" (Paul Kirmayer); "'Tehila' in the Community" (Ora Grabelsky); "Nine Principles in Creating a Community Play" (Yossi Alfi); "The Community Is on Both Sides of the Lens" (Ze' ev Zahavi); and "Regional Radio" (Yossi Alfi).
