N2 - With the focus of online tools as a tool to connect people, most of whom are strangers, through the study of Jewish texts, this poster presents a phenomenon of family members practicing online havruta (paired couple) learning together. My research questions were: How does online family havruta learning function as a learning space? And, how do learners experience such learning? Generating data from six semi-structured interviews, these cases show how learners explore Jewish texts as they deepen their relationships. Their actual family relations reflected a broader definition of Jews as a single people constituting one albeit large, extended, historical, and global family. Thus, these cases can be viewed as metaphors for online communal learning, specifically, Jewish learning communities.
