Welcome to the tutorials page! These tutorials work best within the framework of the curriculum used at the University of Texas at Austin: Modern Hebrew for Beginners (UT Press, 2000), and Modern Hebrew for Intermediate Students (UT Press, 2001). Individual tutorials, however, and certainly the independent tutorials, may be of use in other settings as well. Note: The tutorials assume machines and browsers that are Hebrew enabled, and are best viewed on a PC using Internet Explorer 5.1 or higher. Both tutorials and flashcards require the Macromedia Flash player. Not all of these materials are accessible to users who are visually or hearing impaired.
These links to a number of Hebrew logic puzzles are authored by Esther Raizen for use in classes at the University of Texas at Austin. Enjoy them!
The puzzles are designed in black and white, for maximum clarity in printing. Feel free to use them in your classes! In addition to the crosshatch grid, which I provided with each puzzle, I recommend using a fill-in grid, which often helps in organizing and highlighting the data that is already available.
