This study compares the argumentative writing characteristics of students from different sociocultural backgrounds. We focused on Jewish ultra-Orthodox (Haredi) students, educated in a segregated religious school for boys (yeshiva), who are now attempting to integrate in secular higher education in Israel. To better understand the unique characteristics of this population, we reviewed 92 essays written by Haredi students, and compared them with 76 essays by public education (PE) graduates. Our analysis was based on the cognitive and sociocultural perspectives of argumentation. Both bottom-up and top-down criteria were used to elicit the argumentative writing characteristics either emerging from the data or based on existing theories. Our primary findings indicate that Haredi students have distinct argumentative characteristics, including the use of more complex and dialectic arguments and unique persuasive tactics. These findings are discussed in light of previous research on yeshiva learning methods and recommendations are provided for adjusting the existing higher education curricula to suit both PE and Haredi students.

从叶史瓦到学术界:极端正统男学生的议论文写作特点

本研究比较了来自不同社会文化背景的学生的议论文写作特点。我们专注于犹太极端正统派 (Haredi) 学生,他们在一所隔离的男孩宗教学校 (yeshiva) 接受教育,他们现在正试图融入以色列的世俗高等教育。为了更好地了解这一人群的独特特征,我们审查了 Haredi 学生撰写的 92 篇论文,并将它们与公共教育 (PE) 毕业生的 76 篇论文进行了比较。我们的分析基于论证的认知和社会文化观点。自下而上和自上而下的标准都被用来引出从数据中出现或基于现有理论的议论文写作特征。我们的主要发现表明,Haredi 学生具有明显的辩论特征,包括使用更复杂和辩证的论点和独特的说服策略。这些发现将根据先前关于 yeshiva 学习方法的研究进行讨论,并为调整现有的高等教育课程以适合体育和哈雷迪学生提供建议。
