DESCRIPTION:
The authors discuss his educational theory in the context of his ideology and philosophy, and they examine his own Introduction to Philosophy class.. This is an exploration of Deweyan pedagogy in an actual classroom since studies of Dewey's Laboratory School began at the turn of the century
A Customer said Fantastic! Dewey summary and an application thereof.. This book is tremendous--it provides an engaging entrance into the authors' dilemna (one all teachers have): How to teach usefully? Next is an excellent overview of Dewey's educational theories, and then a step-by-step description of the authors' successful application into a college classroom. I am so motivated now to try it myself. "They" said it could not be done, but "they" were wrong! My response: Aaaahaahhhh!
