Collaborative Navigation and Negotiation of Jewish Texts Online: The Case of Project Zug as a Digital "Havruta" Platform
Journal of Jewish Education, v88 n2 p127-153 2022
We know little currently about how new digital tools have effected changes in Jewish studies learning environments and processes -- although technologies play a central role in contemporary discussions of learning. This study aims to understand how learners collaboratively interpret Jewish sacred texts using informal online collaborative learning platforms. This case study focuses on Project Zug, an online "havruta" (paired couple) platform for the learning of Jewish texts. Based on 13 semi-structured interviews with Project Zug participants and using sociocultural frameworks of learning, I present how Project Zug created a digital "havruta" community of practice enabling dynamic learning identities.
