Abstract
During an intractable conflict and amidst deep divisions in Israeli society and the challenges of the November 2022 elections, 68 Arab and Jewish teachers participated in the Shared Education program. Our study focused on two questions: How do these educators perceive shared life during political turmoil? What are the attitudes of Arab and Jewish teachers in response to Israel's political climate?
The findings reveal that teachers were aware of the situation's negative impact but remained determined to continue the shared learning program, seeing it as a positive engagement amidst adversity. However, Arab teachers were more concerned about program continuity, potential cancellations, and their students' negative emotions.
This research highlights educators committed to fostering shared life in a divided society, stressing the need to recognize varying needs and perspectives within these groups.
期刊介绍：
The purpose of the International Journal of Educational Development is to foster critical debate about the role that education plays in development. IJED seeks both to develop new theoretical insights into the education-development relationship and new understandings of the extent and nature of educational change in diverse settings. It stresses the importance of understanding the interplay of local, national, regional and global contexts and dynamics in shaping education and development. Orthodox notions of development as being about growth, industrialisation or poverty reduction are increasingly questioned. There are competing accounts that stress the human dimensions of development.
