John Dewey's philosophies on education emphasize pragmatism and the importance of experiential learning over rote memorization. In "The School and Society" and "The Child and Curriculum," he advocates for a "learning by doing" approach, asserting that students thrive through natural curiosity and real-world interaction. Dewey's ideas significantly influenced educational reform and social change in the twentieth century, establishing him as a key figure in pragmatism and functional psychology. His work continues to inspire educators and those focused on child development today.
