Rabbi Jeffrey Saks talks with Dr. Elie Holzer about his new book “A Philosophy of Havruta: Understanding and Teaching the Art of Text Study in Pairs” (Academic Studies Press). What are the implications for moral education in using havruta paired learning in Jewish studies? Is it merely a technique or are there larger affective goals at work? How can teachers use havruta study to enable students to both challenge and support each other?
