John Dewey's Import on Education Reform
Information
Hopeful discussions about civil society, public schools, and democratic citizenship.
Members: 99
Latest Activity: Jun 11
Discussions based on Dewey's own writings and on those about him and his dream.
Laura Gibbs has kindly provided a del.icio.us tag for available online texts of Dewey's works and for secondary sources of information about him.
Skip Zilla suggests that this group rely (at least at its formation) on six secondary titles to guide its discussions:
1) Benson, Lee, Harkavy, Ira, and Puckett, John. (2007). Dewey's Dream: Universities and Democracies in an Age of Education Reform. Philadelphia: Temple University Press.
2) Welchman, Jennifer. (1995). Dewey's Ethical Thought. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press.
3) Tanner, Laurel N. (1997). Dewey's Laboratory School: Lessons for Today. New York: Teachers College Press.
4) Shook, John R. (2000). Dewey's Empirical Theory of Knowledge and Reality. Nashville, TN: Vanderbilt University Press.
5) Westerbrook, Robert B. (1993). John Dewey and American Democracy. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press.
6) Campbell, James. (1995). Understanding John Dewey: Nature and Cooperative Intelligence. Peru, IL: Open Court Publishing Company.

Skip, you're right. Last discussion on the forum was on January '08. Too many abandoned classrooms lately? I think so.

I see no one has been here for awhile. I hope that email notices will ping some of you. :-)
Have you seen the brilliant video of Dewey on Progressive Education in the 1940s?

P.S. Will anyone be at AERA in San Diego? Want to have a meet-up?
