Discovering John Dewey in the Twenty-First Century
Dialogues on the Present and Future of Education
About this book
This book features a unique collection of dialogues with fourteen notable scholars on their opinions and observations about John Dewey, a renowned educational philosopher of the twentieth century. The book explores varying views about John Dewey, his philosophy, and his educational theory. In revealing positive, sometimes negative, occasionally surprising, and consistently insightful viewpoints, the author seeks to enable the reader to reflect on the primary question: does John Dewey's consequential educational philosophy have an important role in twenty-first century education and in nurturing and sustaining democratic ideals?
