<HTML>Re secular materials to teach ethics.
I have come across and extensively used "Taking the MTV Challenge" by
Rabbi Ron Price of UTJ in New Jersey . It uses familiar clips from TV
programmes e.g. ER, South Park etc. and the teachers resource book then
requires students to analyse them from a Jewish perspective. Good stuff
- and very user friendly, either in the formal or informal arena.
Of course, if your talmidim are not TV watchers, it could be just a
little problematic!
Keep up the great debate - it just gets better ever edition!
