I am Raul Weis, a teacher in teacher training institutes in Israel. I have mostly taught Philosophy of Education and Values Education and these are my main interests in this field. I am now also a lecturer for school and pre-school headmasters in the Institute of Advanced Studies in Education of the Kibbutz Seminar.
I have been for many years the head of two national teams of teachers working at teacher training institutes with the aim of developing a culture of caring in institutions ranging from pre-school to university. This was done in the frame of the Mofet Institute, the israeli center for teacher education. I was also the head of the team of teacher’s teachers who wrote the first book with this objective in Israel (in hebrew,.of course). Several articles dealing with the implementation of a culture of caring in educational settings have been translated into Spanish.
I founded – in the Oranim Academic College of Education – the israeli Center for the Development of Culture of ethical development focused on a culture of caring .
