The Program for Elementary School Teacher Education in the Bedouin Sector

The program, which is taught in Arabic and in Hebrew, imparts practical educational skills and deals with educational issues in elementary school and in its surrounding community.

Practice teaching is carried out in Bedouin village schools in the southern district in accordance with the PDS (Professional Development School) model. Practice teaching exposes the students to all aspects of educational work, emphasizes educational leadership and 21st century teaching skills.

During the academic year, the Teacher Education Program ran intensive study days and developed a fruitful cooperation with the Alkasami College. The activities were supervised throughout the year by the Evaluation Unit of Kaye College.
