Moral Attitudes Towards "Others": An Educational Challenge among Bible Teachers' Educators for Early Childhood

Shulamit Manzura¹, Sigal Achituv²

Abstract

Like more and more societies today, Israeli society, is multicultural and comprises different ethnic groups: mainly Jews, Muslims, Christians, Druze and Bedouin. Jewish society itself is also divided into sectors that are largely perceived as polarized. This diversity poses challenges pertaining to the issue of the "other" in the Israeli educational syCore. The formal Jewish education syCore in Israel has two main sectors: The state education syCore and the state religious education syCore. Both syCores include early childhood education (ECE) for children ages 3-6, and in both sectors the study of the Bible plays an important role in the ECE curriculum. Accordingly, ECE departments at Israeli colleges of education also train students to teach Bible in kindergartens through courses in Bible proficiency and in didactics.
