The study investigated how a pedagogic change process is managed by the divergent Haredi and Modern Orthodox streams of Orthodox Jewish schooling. Its literature study looked at the classical forms of historic Jewish pedagogy and how they have adapted to internal and external dynamics. It also examined how contemporary Orthodox schooling, specifically, is an amalgam of a variety of responses, reactions and adaptations to the radically changed landscape of modernity. The influence of the modern student profile was examined along with the affects of the inclusion of secular studies into the modern Jewish syllabus. The appropriateness of new interactive methods and technologies and the specialized teacher training they require were also explored. A qualitative study of the expert opinions of six contemporary experts was conducted and thematically analyzed along with an analysis of material from two file-sharing websites. Recommendations for educational practice and further research were proposed. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (Comparative Education)
