    Extractions: - John Dewey John Dewey (1859-1952) believed that learning was active and schooling unnecessarily long and restrictive. His idea was that children came to school to do things and live in a community which gave them real, guided experiences which fostered their capacity to contribute to society. For example, Dewey believed that students should be involved in real-life tasks and challenges: Dewey had a gift for suggesting activities that captured the center of what his classes were studying.

    Extractions: John Dewey Jim Garrison College of Human Resources and Education Virginia Tech John Dewey (1859-1952) was a pragmatic philosopher, psychologist, and educator commonly regarded as the founder of the progressive education movement. Dewey was born in Burlington, Vermont on October 20, 1859. His father was a grocer and Civil War Veteran, his mother a strong-willed evangelical Congregationalist noted for her work with the city's poor. John was a shy and self-conscious boy, and as a man, he never entirely lost these qualities. In 1875, he enrolled in the University of Vermont where he took his BA degree. Although his interest in philosophy emerged as an undergraduate, he was uncertain about his future. He taught high school for two years in Oil City, Pennsylvania, and then one more year back in his hometown of Burlington where he arranged for private tutorials in philosophy with his former teacher H. A. P. Torry. Eventually Hall received the only available professorship in philosophy, so Morris left for a position in the philosophy department at the University of Michigan. After several difficult months of unemployment, Dewey joined his mentor in 1884 at Michigan as an instructor. He spent the next decade there, except for one year at the University of Minnesota. During these years, Dewey wrote, although with decaying conviction, in the Hegelian tradition of idealism as he found it expressed by British Idealists such as Thomas Hill Green. Dewey never cared for rote memorization of facts, formulas, or mere job training. He did not, however, think educators should ignore issues of social control and classroom discipline or the control implicitly contained in the academic disciplines and skilled practices. He recognized that freedom implies both negative freedom, or freedom from constraint, as well as positive freedom, or freedom for something, some value, some goal. Freedom for requires personal discipline. His 1938 Experience and Education was written to correct the excesses of those progressive educators who seemed to think "almost any kind of spontaneous activity inevitably secures the desired or desirable training of mental power" (LW 8: 153).

    Extractions: By 1905, Dewey was the dominant voice in American teacher educational change, operating out of Harvard University. In 1920, Russia hired John Dewey to construct a program of "progressive education" for the Soviet school system. By 1932 Russia informed Dewey that he was a failure, and that rather than educating the children, his system was turning out a nation of delinquents. In 1933, after failing in the Soviet Union, Dewey set up the same Humanistic system in the United States. "Dewey changed the aim, content, and methods of education. It is important to understand why and how he changed the aim of our schools. He was a national socialist, promoting one hundred percent state control or ownership of property, all means of production, whether capital, natural resources, or labor. He called it collectivism. In 1905 he organized the Intercollegiate Socialist Society, along with Jack London, Upton Sinclair, Walter Lippmann, and W.E.B. Dubois. In 1921, the Society changed its name to the League for Industrial Democracy., and Dewey served as its president in 1941. It's aim was to put teachers in the classroom who were collectivists, as well as ministers in the pulpits and leaders in the labor unions. In 1962, the League formed an action arm called the Students for a Democratic Society."

    http://www.ul.ie/~philos/vol1/dewey.html
    
    Extractions: John Dewey, who was to become one of the most powerful influences on educational thought in the 20th Century, was born in the town of Burlington, Vermont, in 1859. His father was proprietor of the local general store where, apparently, locals would foregather from time to time to discuss, with equal interest, affairs of both state and locality. According to one apocryphal story the store window carried the legend: The intimate small-town ethos of 19th century Burlington played a large part in forming Dewey's educational outlook in two ways: one negative, one positive. On the negative side he was convinced at a very early stage that the traditional, formal, desk-bound approach to schooling which was typified by the small town and rural schools of his childhood was futile. This kind of schooling was inadequate for the growing USA: a new society being born out of a simple agricultural economy which was being transformed by unprecedented industrialisation, immigration, rapid population growth, and drastic social change. (The old education) was predominantly static in subject matter, authoritarian in methods, and mainly passive and receptive from the side of the young. ... the imagination of educators did not go beyond provision of a fixed and rigid environment of subject matter, one drawn moreover from sources altogether too remote from the experience of the pupil.

    Extractions: Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History , philosopher and educator. Dewey was a world-renowned founder of pragmatic philosophy and theoretician of progressive education. His voluminous writings dealt not only with philosophy and education but also with politics, art, and current events. He was a founder and the first president of the American Association of University Professors, an organizer of the New School for Social Research in New York City and of the American Committee for Cultural Freedom, an officer of the American Civil Liberties Union, and a trustee of Hull-House; he also chaired the commission that investigated Leon Trotsky's Moscow trial. Throughout his long career, Dewey was engaged with scholarly and public concerns that were shared by many of his contemporaries. He was once described as "the most profound, most complete expression of American genius." Born and reared in Burlington, Vermont, Dewey graduated from the University of Vermont in 1879. Thereafter, he taught school for two years before enrolling for graduate study at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, where he imbibed the reverence for empirical, hypothesis-testing science that was the staple of conversation at the new university. This attitude was critical in turning Dewey away from abstract approaches to philosophy, as were the reform interests of Harriet Alice Chipman, a student at the University of Michigan, where Dewey taught from 1884 until 1894 (with one year, 1888-1889, at the University of Minnesota). Chipman became Dewey's wife in 1886. (She died in 1927, and Dewey married Roberta Lowitz Grant in 1946.)

    Extractions: THE JOHN DEWEY AND F. MATTHIAS ALEXANDER HOMEPAGE F. Matthias Alexander teaching John Dewey It (the technique of Mr. Alexander) bears the same relation to education that education itself bears to all other human activities. John Dewey, from his Introduction to F. M. Alexander's third book, The Use of the Self F. Matthias Alexander(1869-1955) was an Australian who made some very important discoveries about human functioning and behavior, and how individuals could be taught to improve these qualities in themselves. Alexander's discoveries, and the practical methods he and his followers developed for teaching them, form the basis of what has become known today as the Alexander Technique. Dewey met Alexander in during World War I when Alexander was visiting New York and he had his first lessons from Alexander at that time. Dewey was then in his fifties, and he continued taking Alexander Technique lessons for the next 35 years. Freedom to Change by Frank Pierce Jones.)

    Extractions: John Dewey and Frederick Matthias Alexander By Mary Cohen Section One: F.M. Alexander's Story Through an in-depth self evaluation by using mirrors and closely noting his actions, Alexander discovered that each time he spoke, he audibly gasped for air, pressed his head down and back when he recited, and gripped his feet. He noticed similar patterns in himself to a lesser degree in his daily dialogue. His decision to eliminate these poor habits was, however, more easily conceptualized than accomplished. It took nine to ten years for him to explore these habits in depth and discover how to correct them.(3) During this time he experimented with techniques such as primary control, constructive conscious control, means whereby, inhibition, directions, delicacy of movement, thinking in action (coined by John Dewey), end gaining, and debauched kinesthetic awareness which later contributed to the philosophy known today as the Alexander Technique. The Alexander Technique is perhaps best understood by experiencing a lesson from a trained Alexander teacher. It is a process of experiencing present moment awareness which requires conscious control of actions. A simple explanation of the technique is movement reeducation. Many dancers, actors, and musicians study the technique to improve their performances, but any person may benefit by incorporating Alexander's methods into daily life. John Dewey was one of the many people who benefited from interactions with Alexander and the Alexander Technique.

    Extractions: John Dewey, the third of four sons, was born on October 20, 1859 to Archibald Sprague and Lucina Artemesia Rich Dewey in Burlington, Vermont. John Dewey attended public schools in Burlington and then attended the University of Vermont in Burlington. Scottish realism was the primary school of thought at the University of Vermont when Dewey was a student there. His rejection of the ideas of realism is thought to have prompted his interest in philosophy. John Dewey's significance for informal educators lays in a multiple areas. First, his belief that education must engage and enlarge experience has continued to be a significant idea in informal education. Secondly Dewey fought for the exploration of thinking and reflection. Third, his concern with interaction and environments for learning provide a continuing framework for practice. Last, his passion for democracy. he was a big proponent of education for all- because of this he was also looking for many ways to encorporate education in al aspects of life. Upon his graduation from college in 1879, Dewey taught high school for two years. During this time, Dewey published his first essay

    Extractions: John Dewey vs. the Alexander Technique The Alexander Technique is a method of carriage awareness and improvement carriage in the sense of how you carry yourself, grace, lightness, ease of movement. It’s usually taught privately, the teacher certified by a professional society such as AmSAT, ATI, and STAT after undergoing three years of training. It was discovered and developed by F. Matthias Alexander (1869-1955), and today is widely known among musicians, dancers, and actors. Everyone, though, can benefit from the Alexander Technique. (For more about it, see STAT The American philosopher John Dewey (1859-1952) recommended the Alexander Technique, and today teachers frequently use his endorsement in their advertisements. Further, Dewey claimed the Alexander Technique illustrated his own philosophy, and some teachers repeat that claim in their descriptions of the Technique. A Google.com search for “Alexander Technique” shows how often Dewey’s endorsement gets used in Alexander Technique literature. Of the first ten websites it lists, eight of them feature Dewey’s endorsement or furnish a link to a site that does. The question is: is Dewey’s endorsement valuable?
