This book traces the journey of the Mofet Association, an educational coalition established by teachers who immigrated to Israel from the former Soviet Union. Initially focused on children from the former Soviet Union, the Mofet Association went on to become an extensive network of schools serving a wide range of students, including non-immigrant Israelis, Arabs, and Druze in is Israel’s center and periphery. This book describes the step by step processes that Israeli public schools undergo in the course of adopting Mofet’s “imported pedadgogy.”
