Journal Article
“A Kind of Magic”: Pre-military Preparatory Schools (Mechinot) in Israel as Models for Informal Education
2024
Overview
The pre-army preparatory programs established in Israel constitute a unique and popular model of education. Using the qualitative method and semi-structured interviews, I found four key themes that can explain this model: identity, autonomy, affiliation, and an informal approach. A variety of psychological theories are raised throughout the paper that address each one. It seems that a combination of these themes may be a key factor contributing to the popularity of these programs, and to other popular Jewish education programs beyond the borders of Israel that are similar. This innovative educational model is capable of influencing not only Jewish education but general education as well.
