Our Vision
When Jewish educators articulate ambitious learning outcomes, when we cultivate shared responsibility for learning and assess learning consistently, and when we are relentlessly curious about students’ understandings, we move towards Jewish education that can make a deep and lasting difference in the lives of students and the vibrancy of the Jewish community.
To achieve this vision, the Center promotes the study of learners and learning across Jewish educational contexts and settings.
