SUMMARY:Bringing Shavat Vayinafash into the Everyday
DESCRIPTION:Larry Dressler \nOne of the paradoxes of the rabbinate is that we who are most devoted to repairing the world often find ourselves in a state of disrepair. Too often we and our institutions get caught up in a larger culture that values speed\, multi-tasking and results. We learn to “cope” with or suppress our experience of feeling overworked\, overcommitted\, and overwhelmed\, often at a personal cost. In this session we will use dialogue\, poetry\, and embodied practices to explore the small yet profound ways in which we can regularly “re-soul” — restore a sense of wonder\, freshness\, and wholeness to our sacred work.

SUMMARY:Teaching Hebrew: Raising the Bar
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Vardit Ringvald \nThe impact of the Hebrew language on our children’s sense of self is increasingly in the spotlight. What a different picture when they approach their Bar/Bat Mitzvah training with the organic connection to ancient texts and Israeli culture that Hebrew gives them! To maximize the level of our students’ Hebrew in Synagogue schools\, we need to build a field of professionals who understand language acquisition and have the pedagogical skills to incorporate this understanding into their classroom activities. Hebrew at the Center (HATC). has worked with day schools\, public schools\, summer camps\, afterschool programs\, and regional groups of schools throughout North America\, serving a wide range of Jewish expression and practice. Founding Senior Academic Advisor Dr. Vardit Ringvald will describe how HATC prepares educators to make informed decisions that foster their learners’ abilities to internalize the Hebrew language\, transforming it into a powerful tool for shaping and strenthening Jewish identity in religious school settings.

SUMMARY:The Best Practice of Mentors and Mentees
DESCRIPTION:Sam Joseph \n\nThere are mainly four types of mentors: \n\nCareer Guide — promotes development through career guidance\, counseling and visibility;\nInformation Source — provides information about formal and informal expectations;\nFriend — interacts with the mentee socially and provides information about people; and\nIntellectual Guide — promotes an equal relationship\, collaborates on research projects and provides constructive feedback and criticism.\n\nThe mentor-mentee relationship in the rabbinate could intersect with all four types above. \nThis session will bring the most recent research into the practice of mentoring and help colleagues learn how to have an engaging mentoring relationship and a generative one. The rabbinate can be growthful and richer because of such.
