ABSTRACT:
(6pp) The formation of a philosophy sounds like a
major assignment, doesn't it? Yet each of us do
that daily in the way that we live - that is our
personal philosophy. John Dewey (1859 - 1952) took
that a few steps farther and looked at the process,
or the way, in which we as humans best learn, and
then looked at that method in relationship to a
teaching role and a school system. He believed
that a democracy was the overall best environment
for the methods he defines in Democracy in E
ducation (1916).
