Sparks of Wisdom is a social learning program in which participants read ten brief but powerful texts that are followed by ten carefully crafted discussion question meant to trigger discussion and internalization. This Shavuos addition contains quotes about each of the Aseres Hadibros and related discussion questions to trigger discussion.
In a Zoom meeting (ideal if there are ten or fewer participants), each participant should take a turn to read a text and then have the first opportunity to share his or her thoughts on the follow-up question. Then allow some of the other participants to share their thoughts on the same question before continuing to the next text quote.
