John Dewey was one of the most influential American philosophers, psychologists, and educators whose ideas have impacted education and social reform around the world. He is one of the founders with the philosophy of pragmatism and of functional psychology. He is in the row with the greatest thinkers including Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Karl Popper, Charles Peirce, John Mill, and William James.
Dewey considered schools and civil society as the two fundamental elements that had to be constructively evolved by encouraging experimental intelligence and plurality. Dewey's belief is that complete democracy is to be sustainable not just by giving and extending voting rights but also by ensuring that a fully formed public opinion is accomplished by communication among citizens, experts, and politicians with the full accountability and responsibility for the policies they adopt.
THE CHILD AND THE CURRICULUM is a highly influential publication by John Dewey for funding the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools and he laid the book as the foundation for his later work. John Dewey detailed his psychological, social, and political framework for progressive education in the book. He argued that the progressive approach was the result of the Industrial Revolution and it was a natural fit with the psychology of children. He further asserted his philosophical view of education that "Profound differences in theory are never gratuitous or invented. They grow out of conflicting elements in a genuine problem--a problem which is genuine just because the elements, taken as they stand, are conflicting. Any significant problem involves conditions that for the moment contradict each other. Solution comes only by getting away from the meaning of terms that is already fixed upon and coming to see the conditions from another point of view, and hence in a fresh light. But this reconstruction means travail of thought. Easier than thinking with surrender of already formed ideas and detachment from facts already learned is just to stick by what is already said, looking about for something with which to buttress it against attack."
The University of Chicago Laboratory Schools that John Dewey founded was to deliver his pedagogical beliefs "to prepare him for the future life means to give him command of himself; it means so to train him that he will have the full and ready use of all his capacities". His educational thought of "Learning by Doing" also formed the foundation of the opening of Indian Springs School, Alabama in 1952, one of the best boarding schools in the United States. The school has adapted John Dewey's pedagogical beliefs in its longstanding motto, Learning through Living.
John Dewey's influence has been felt in nearly every field of the humanities, sciences, and American corporate culture such learning by doing. The reasoning by John Dewey still remains as relevant today as it was then. This book is one of the most important ones about the deepest thoughts of education by John Dewey, one of the greatest thinkers of education, psychology, and logic on the planet.
