* Starting with Aleph: An On-line
Course in Hebrew Reading and Jewish Values
"STARTING WITH ALEPH is an innovative course that teaches
Hebrew reading and basic Jewish values in an interactive fashion.
Lesson One (Breishit / In the
Beginning) introduces the six letters of the Hebrew word "Breishit" and
words formed by those letters through interactive exercises and a
"multimedia midrash".
The Beginning Level (Lessons Two
through Four) presents Jewish notions of time (Zman), place (Makom),
and world (Olam), covering the entire alphabet by the end of Lesson
Four.
The Advanced Level (Lessons Five
through Seven) is in development. It will enrich the basic notions of
Zman-Makom-Olam through three interactive "journeys" -- through the
Jewish calendar, Israel, and a Jewish text (ethical teachings of
Pirkei Avot)".
A real
very innovative way to learn language and cultural contents at one
time, wisely designed in Flash.
