    Extractions: John Dewey (1859-1952) is probably the greatest of American pragmatist philosophers and certainly the most influential for cultural criticism and aesthetics. His voluminous writings cover all the major philosophical disciplines, and among his primary themes are naturalism, instrumentalism, experience and experimentation, and an antifoundationalist historicism that sees philosophical problems as the reflection of real practical problems that emerge through social and scientific change. Apart from his eminence as a professional philosopher, Dewey was also an important public figure, a controversial educational reformer, and an outspoken supporter of the labor movement and other progressive causes. Not only his ethics and politics but also his epistemology and philosophy of science were deeply imbued with a commitment to participatory democracy and the openness of inquiry. I shall concentrate here on Dewey's aesthetics as represented primarily in Art as Experience (1934), which, however, involves much more than aesthetics as traditionally conceived. Though Dewey's aesthetics initially aroused much interest among artists and critics as well as philosophers, it was, in academic circles, totally eclipsed by analytic philosophy of art, which by and large dismissed Dewey's aesthetic theory as "a hodge-podge of conflicting methods and undisciplined speculations" (Isenberg 128). Deweyan aesthetics is best portrayed by contrast to analytic aesthetics, and it contains many of the major themes of contemporary Continental theory that analytic philosophy either ignores or repudiates.

    Extractions: John Dewey was the most significant educational thinker of his era and, many would argue, of the 20th century. As a philosopher, social reformer and educator, he changed fundamental approaches to teaching and learning. His ideas about education sprang from a philosophy of pragmatism and were central to the Progressive Movement in schooling. In light of his importance, it is ironic that many of his theories have been relatively poorly understood and haphazardly applied over the past hundred years. Dewey's concept of education put a premium on meaningful activity in learning and participation in classroom democracy. Unlike earlier models of teaching, which relied on authoritarianism and rote learning, progressive education asserted that students must be invested in what they were learning. Dewey argued that curriculum should be relevant to students' lives. He saw learning by doing and development of practical life skills as crucial to children's education. Some critics assumed that, under Dewey's system, students would fail to acquire basic academic skills and knowledge. Others believed that classroom order and the teacher's authority would disappear.

One of his teachers was G. Stanley Hall, a founder of experimental psychology; another was Charles S. Peirce. Dewey, however, was particularly disposed to German philosophic thought, especially the unifying, organic character of the idealism of Hegel, in contrast to British empiricism. Dewey first taught philosophy at the University of Michigan (1884-88), and then at the University of Minnesota (1888), and subsequently returned to Michigan (1889-94). In 1894 he became chairman of the department of philosophy, psychology, and pedagogy at the University of Chicago. His influential classic

Born in Burlington, Vermont, Dewey received a B.A. degree from the University of Vermont in 1879 and a Ph.D. degree from Johns Hopkins University in 1884. Dewey’s long and influential career in education began at the University of Michigan, where he taught from 1884 to 1888. In 1888-1889 Dewey taught at the University of Minnesota, returning to the University of Michigan from 1889 to 1894. He continued his career at the University of Chicago from 1894 to 1904 and at Columbia University from 1904 until his retirement as professor emeritus in 1931. Dewey lectured, acted as an educational consultant, and studied educational systems in China, Japan, Mexico, Turkey, and the Soviet Union. As a philosopher, Dewey emphasized the practical, striving to show how philosophical ideas can work in everyday life. His sense of logic and philosophy was ever-changing, adaptive to need and circumstance. The process of thinking, in his philosophy, is a means of planning action, of removing the obstacles between what is given and what is wanted. Truth is an idea that has worked in practical experience. Dewey followed the American philosopher and psychologist William James as a leader of the pragmatic movement in philosophy; Dewey’s own philosophy, called either instrumentalism or experimentalism, stems from the pragmatism of James.

Each of the videos in this landmark series is the result of thousands of hours of research, filming and editing, and the average time between additions to the series is 14-18 months. In 1999, Davidson Films released the critically acclaimed, and award-winning video, B. F. Skinner: A Fresh Appraisal . This was followed by one of the most complex efforts in the Giants series, John Dewey: His Life and Work which received the coveted CINE Golden Eagle Award. The sixth film in the series, Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory , features this very much alive “Giant” presenting his ideas to new students. For the academic year 2004-2005, we are adding two theorists whose work has had tremendous practical impact. Maria Montessori: Her Life and Legacy explores the thought and work of an extraordinary woman whose ideas have affected the delivery of early education on a broader scope than just the schools that bear her name.

    Extractions: Back to Major Contributors Influences on The Major Theorists John Dewey (1859-1952) John Dewey was born in 1859 in the town of Burlington, Vermont to Lucinda Rich Dewey and Archibald Sprague Dewey. John was one of three sons to grow up in the middle-class Dewey household. Archibald supported the family as a grocer and later owner of cigar and tobacco shop. The University of Chicago's philosophy department focused on the desire to merge philosophy, psychology, and the study of pedagogy . Dewey argued that pedagogy should be a separate department and was hence appointed to head the Department of Education (first known as the Department of Pedagogy) in addition to the Department of Philosophy. In the late 1890's, Dewey moved towards a philosophical stance later known as pragmatism . In education, his influence was a leading factor in the eradication of authoritarian methods and placing emphasis upon learning through experimentation and practice. Dewey also actively participated in movements to forward social welfare and women's suffrage. In 1904, after some discontent in the Department of Education at Chicago, Dewey resigned and was offered a professorship at Columbia University. He remained there until his retirement in 1930. Dewey died at home in New York City on June 1, 1952 after breaking his hip the previous year.

    Extractions: John Dewey (1859-1952) the philosopher of democracy. In the ellipse of Dewey's philosophy, democracy, its understanding, reinforcement and elaboration occupies the other focus. Several traits stand out as the frame and threads out of which he wove his philosophical grasp of things. 1. ReformationDewey was an heir to the Protestant Reformation tradition. With him, this meant that the inheritance of the past, no matter how valuable in certain respects, could always be improved. Change, reform, and the word that came to be associated with him "reconstruction" were constant concerns. He had a keen sense of how precarious were human achievements, and how easily one generation's liberating reforms could be the next generation's limiting conditions. 2. The SocialAlthough an empiricist, Dewey was not, as was Locke, an atomist in any sense. His most fundamental philosophical category, that which can most securely be applied to the nature of things, was the "social." Dewey had an organic, biological sense about the nature of things. Nothing exists in isolation. Everything is enmeshed in multiple and overlapping interrelations. "Individuality," the unique contributions each of us can make, was a Deweyan ideal as opposed to "individualism," the attempt to define and establish ourselves apart from our connections to others. 3. Growthbecause of the great variety of individuals, it is impossible to fix a certain goal as
