Teaching Students' Understanding of Innovative Pedagogy
European Scientific Journal February 2017 edition Vol.13, No.4 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 Teaching Students’ Understanding of Innovative Pedagogy Dr. Edni Naifeld, (PhD) Dr. Eitan Simon,( PhD) Ohalo College, Israel doi: 10.19044/esj.2017.v13n4p15 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2017.v13n4p15 Abstract The education system, is responsible for the training of each new generation, and consequently adapts itself over the years to changes in the surrounding society. Technological changes, the information revolution and changes in work habits necessitate fundamental change in teaching methods, so that it can appropriately prepare future generations for modern reality. The Teaching and Education College in northern Israel offers programs to train “future teachers”, highlighting dynamic environments, the integration of technology in teaching and innovative pedagogy. A qualitative study used an open-ended questionnaire to investigate students’ perceptions of the concepts “innovative pedagogy” and “integration of technology in teaching” during their first practicum year in the education system. Findings showed that the young students find it difficult to conceptualize these concepts and describe them in a superficial and concrete manner. Mediation is needed, to connect college learning of these concepts with the students’ practical work in the field. Keywords: Teacher- training, 21st century, education- technology, innovative-pedagogy, novice-teachers Introduction: One of the tasks of the education system is to prepare its pupils for adult life and successful integration within the employment market. The demands of this market alter with developments in industry, technology and science. In 1970, essential skills for most employees included reading, writing and arithmetic, yet at the end of the 20th century, employees were required to demonstrate ability for team work, problem-solving and interpersonal skills.

Gender Effect on Student Teachers' Attitudes Toward Peer Feedback in a Wiki Learning Environment Yehuda Peled, Western Galilee
Gender Effect on Student Teachers' Attitudes toward Peer Feedback in a Wiki Learning Environment Yehuda Peled, Western Galilee College, Israel Rakefet Sharon, Ohalo College, Israel The Asian Conference on Society, Education & Technology 2014 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract The focus of this research is pre-teachers’ attitudes toward peer feedback in a wiki learning environment and its relation to their self-esteem. Results indicate that women find it harder to give and receive feedback. Men agree more with statements that represent high self-esteem. Women agree more with statements which represent lower self-esteem and learning from others. A correlation exists between self-esteem and readiness to give and receive feedback. Self-esteem has a gender-related influence on the willingness to give and receive feedback. Gender influences the tendency to pass the responsibility for feedback to the lecturer. This paper discusses the implication of these findings, as they relate to the education system with its majority of female teachers. We discuss the influence of these findings on the preparedness of the system to embrace meaningful learning based on critical thinking and constructive feedback, which are based on self-confident teachers and willingness to give and receive feedback, both from students and teachers. In conclusion, we discuss the following issues: How well do colleges prepare teachers for the task of building evaluation processes that include critical thinking and feedback both from peers and students? Does teacher training

International Journal of Asian History, Culture and Tradition Vol.5, No.2, pp.18-31, June 2018 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) INTEGRATING ARAB AND JEWISH STUDENTS IN COLLEGES IN ISRAEL: OHALO COLLEGE AS A CASE STUDY Saleh Kharanbeh Ohalo College ABSTRACT: The present article attempts to check the possibility of integrating Arab and Jewish students in colleges in the state, the current integration at Ohalo College is used as a case study. Participants comprised thirty Jewish and Arab, male and female students at Ohalo College in Katzrin, Israel. The current study investigated whether such integration can promote peace between Jews and Arabs. Aspiration for peace is a significant value of life in Israel, and it appears in various contexts and in political discussions. Peace promotes tolerance, prevents violence, and creates dialogue among the parties. Education for peace, which is expressed in integrating Jewish and Arab students, increases the value of higher education in general and the value of education for the Arab community, in particular, due to the inferior status Arabs in the state.The current study discusses the existing types of integration besides the integration possibilities in various academic institutions along with the hardships and obstacles that prevent Arab students from integrating as equals in the Jewish community. KEYWORDS: Arab Student, Jewish Student, Peace, Israel INTRODUCTION Historical Background The question of why there is need for integrating Arab and Jewish students in colleges in Israel and the historical background of such a need will be discussed. The hard situation of Arab citizens in Israel stems from their inferior position as an ethnic minority.

The Story of Innovation in Teacher Education Conference Program WELCOME!
Ministry of Education 2019 The 7th International Conference on Teacher Education The Story of Innovation in Teacher Education Conference Program WELCOME! Greetings from the Conference President The quality of teachers is the best guarantee for a resilient educational system, and teacher education is the starting point for this quality. Teacher education throughout the world is currently at a crossroads, faced with many questions: • How to attract high-quality applicants to the teaching profession? • Should academic training be at undergraduate or graduate level? • What is the correct combination of theoretical and practical training? • What should be the focus between disciplinary education and generic education? Does it differ according to age group? • Do we need small teacher education institutes or only large universities? • Should teacher education be uniform and across the board, or is there room for diverse, niche programs? In common with many other countries in the world, the State of Israel is grappling with these questions with comprehensive strategic programs. Israel's high birthrate, together with a reduction in the number of students in classrooms, means that the demand for teachers is constantly increasing. Low unemployment rates make this challenge even more extensive. All these factors led the Ministry of Education to join forces with the MOFET Institute, a NPO for the professional development of teacher educators, to host this international conference. The conference will not only examine the questions and propose research-based answers, but will also serve as a platform for the professional development of teacher educators in academic institutions. I would like to thank Dr. Michal Golan and the teams at the MOFET Institute for organizing this conference from scratch and to wish all the participants an enriching time of learning for the future of the teaching profession.

From a Triangular to a Pentagonal Model in Teachers Training Practicum
Journal of Education and Learning; Vol. 9, No. 5; 2020 ISSN 1927-5250 E-ISSN 1927-5269 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education From a Triangular to a Pentagonal Model in Teachers Training Practicum Edni Naifeld1 & Yonit Nissim1 1 Faculty of Education, Ohalo College, Katzrin, Israel Correspondence: Yonit Nissim, Faculty of Education, Ohalo College, Katzrin, Israel. E-mail: [email protected] Received: July 7, 2020 Accepted: August 10, 2020 Online Published: August 17, 2020 doi:10.5539/jel.v9n5p89 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/jel.v9n5p89 Abstract Teacher-training has been developed through a complex weave of processes, models and theories, founded on experiences in educational settings. In 2015, the Academia Class program was added to teacher-training programs in Israeli academic colleges and universities and added new ways of thinking about student teachers’ practical experience. The program was widely implemented and became the flagship for teacher-training processes in Israel. As part of the program, student teachers and education students in their third year of studies participate in broad practical training for 12−16 weekly hours (for a year) in various educational institutions. Some of the changes engendered meaningful insights and processes that helped to reshape training processes. This article is derived from qualitative research that was involved in forming new models in teacher training, and offered an improved and enhanced approach to clinical practicum. Traditional pedagogic instruction is based on a “triangular instruction model” (student/teacher trainer/pedagogic instructor). The present study aims to expand this model by offering a new “pentagonal model.” The pentagonal model incorporates the following roles: student/coach-teacher/pedagogic instructor/coordinator teacher/academic instructor.
