Facilitated by Laurence Rosengart and Enas Zmiro, regional communications guidance counselors, in collaboration with the Abraham Fund. 
The model of joint learning is part of the Abraham Fund’s vision to create an egalitarian, multi-cultural Israeli society, in which the Arab and Jewish citizens foster joint living from an early age, at school and outside of school, by getting to know each other, bridging gaps, and overcoming cultural differences through activities of joint interest and cross-border dialogue. To create a society in which both official languages – Hebrew and Arabic – are taught, spoken, and visible, as an expression of their respective cultures and populations, while publicly legitimizing the languages and their speakers.
The workshop demonstrated how Jewish and Arab students study together for the matriculation exam in media and film, by raising the question: What is reality? What do the students’ realities look like, and how are they represented? This workshop offered a glimpse into a new unit developed for high school students.
