1A library catalogue with three collections
A fictional religious studies class receives a library display containing a Tanakh, a Talmud volume and a modern prayer book. The first display label calls all three the same biblical collection. A student notices that the Tanakh designation relates to Torah, Nevi'im and Ketuvim, but then concludes that the other works have no place in Jewish religious life because they are not identical to the biblical collection. The exercise provides a basic description of each book purpose but does not ask students to resolve every historical debate about textual formation.

The project instructions require accurate evidence and respectful treatment of actual people.

Another assumes that ritual observance always requires refusing emergency assistance.
