Chief Proposes Master Teacher Plan to Boost Education

Ry CHARLOTTE DI:BIN

An exchange program that
ultimately would upgrade
the quality of Jewish educa-
tion in the United States is
envisioned by the former
superintendent of the United
Hebrew Schools, who now
makes his home in Israel.

Albert Elazar. in Detroit
last week with his wife
Nettie, said he has placed
his proposal before the
American Association for
Jewish Education, which
agency he represents in Is-
rael.
Elazar, who describes his
role as a "communications
link between Jewish educa-
tion in the U. S. and educa-
tion agencies in Israel," long
has encouraged teacher ex-
changes between the two
countries.

language and instruction
about Israel. Although there
are many subjects they can-
not — or should not—teach,
they bring a perspective that
the American Jewish teacher
can not provide.
Elazar
sees
However,
many weaknesses in the pro-
gram as it exists. What is
lacking, he feels. is an un-
derstanding on the part of
Israeli exchange teachers of
the American Jew's loyalty
to his own land, as well as
the unique character of the
American Jewish child.
Many Israelis, he feels, come
to the United States not out
of dedication to the teaching
profession but with the sole
desire to obtain a college
degree in a subject other
than teaching.

Hebrew University, in coop-

Agency and the ministry of

"The university possibly
would provide dormitories,
and the ministry would in-
volve them in seminars and
tours of institutions. The
Jewish Agency, in turn,
would see to it that there is

year, "we've had a total of
50 graduates. A number of
them are studying at the

"The question," said Ela-
zar, "is how many can be
persuaded to remain in Jew-
ish education. Can we show
them there is a way to
grow? Otherwise, we will get
mediocre teachers.
"If we get two to go into
teaching, it's good; in the
future, we may get 10. Great
things can't be achieved
overnight."

Elazar proposes a stream-

exists — with the rewarding
of good American Jewish
teachers added to the on-
going recruitment of good
Israeli ones.
Last year, he said, the

Agency, in cooperation with
