3-minute taste

I teach or lead a group

What the path for teachers and group leaders offers, in three minutes: ready lessons, discussion rules and one exercise you can run tomorrow.

For teachers, educators and youth leaders who want to bring the subject to a class or group.

  1. Stop 1 of 6 on the full path

    Ready lessons

    Six 45-minute lessons and four units for Arab classrooms, with steps and a closing task, plus a letter to parents.

    Discussion rules

    Evidence first, describe before judging, nobody speaks for a whole people, and it is fine to pass. And tell the class up front: the site's support for two states is a minority view on both sides.12

  3. Stop 2 of 6 on the full path

    One page before the lesson

    "Peace in five minutes": who the sides are, what was signed and what is still open. Students can read it on their own before the first lesson.

  4. Stop 3 of 6 on the full path

    The words themselves

    A peace treaty is not an armistice, and "normalisation" sounds different in Hebrew and in Arabic. The glossary says who says what and why, without ruling.

    A ready exercise: check a source

    Five steps for checking a claim, with one example worked through from start to finish. Fact, interpretation and opinion are three different things.
