  In Roundtable Session: Civic-Minded Activism in the Curriculum: Israel, the Global South, and the International Baccalaureate

Abstract

This study aims to investigate history teachers' perceptions of the impeccable history curriculum content in the Israeli secular Jewish education stream, in secondary schools in terms of globally versus locally oriented issues and subject areas. The lessons from Israel may be relevant for the understanding of more latent problems in curricular formation in other modern societies
