John Dewey was an American philosopher and educational reformer who lived from 1859-1952. He opened an experimental school called the Laboratory School in 1896 to test his progressive ideas about education. Dewey believed education should be student-centered rather than curriculum-centered, and that students learn best through hands-on experiences and interactions with their environment rather than rote memorization. He saw the teacher's role as a facilitator to help students construct their own knowledge.

EXPERIENCE & EDUCATION
John Dewey
The great educational theorist's most concise statement of his ideas about the needs,
the problems, and the possibilities of education--written after his experience with the
progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories received.
"No one has done more to keep alive the fundamental ideals of liberal civilization." -
Morris R. Cohen
Experience and Education is the best concise statement on education ever published
by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the
twentieth century. Written more than two decades after Democracy and Education
(Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this
book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening
experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had
received .
Analyzing both "traditional" and "progressive" education, Dr. Dewey here insists that
neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because
neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience.
Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience
and its relation to education. He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking
for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of
education rather than in terms of some divisive "ism" about education, even such an
"ism" as "progressivism." His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most
readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of

"John Dewey is to be classed among those who have made philosophic thought
relevant to the needs of their own day. In the performance of this function he is to be
classed with the ancient stoics, with Augustine, with Aquinas, with Francis Bacon, with
Descartes, with Locke, with Auguste Comte."
--Alfred North Whitehead
"No one who is informed in the educational held can doubt for a moment the profound
influence of John Dewey on both the theory and the practice of American education."
--William Heard Kilpatrick
"John Dewey is unquestionably the preeminent figure in American philosophy; no one
has done more to keep alive the fundamental ideals of liberal civilization; and if there
could be such an office as that of national philosopher, no one else could be properly
mentioned for it."
--"Morris R. Cohen
