He was born in Burlington, Vermont, on October 20, 1852. Dewey graduated from the University of Vermont in 1879, and received his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University in 1884. He started his career at the University of Michigan, teaching there from 1884 to 1888 and , with a one year visit to the University of Minnesota in 1888.

Among his major journeys are his lectures in Japan and China from 1919 to 1921, and a tour of schools in the USSR in 1928.

The Question Of Certainty By John Dewey

Extractions: Philosophy's Search for the Immutable IN THE PREVIOUS chapter, we noted incidentally the distinction made in the classic tradition between knowledge and belief, or, as Locke put it, between knowledge and judgment. According to this distinction the certain and knowledge are co-extensive. Disputes exist, but they are whether sensation or reason affords the basis of certainty; or whether existence or essence is its object. In contrast with this identification, the very word "belief" is eloquent on the topic of certainty. We believe in the absence of knowledge or complete assurance. Hence the quest for certainty has always been an effort to transcend belief. Now since, as we have already noted, all matters of practical action involve an element of uncertainty, we can ascend from belief to knowledge only by isolating the latter from practical doing and making. In this chapter we are especially concerned with the effect of the ideal of certainty as something superior to belief upon the conception of the nature and function of philosophy. Greek thinkers saw dearly-and logically-that experience cannot furnish us, as respects cognition of existence, with anything more than contingent probability. Experience cannot deliver to us necessary truths; truths completely demonstrated by reason. Its conclusions are particular, not universal. Not being "exact" they come short of "science." Thus there arose the distinction between rational truths or, in modern terminology, truths relating to the relation of ideas, and "truths" about matters of existence, empirically ascertained. Thus not merely the arts of practice, industrial and social, were stamped matters of belief rather than of knowledge, but also all those sciences which are matters of inductive inference from observation.

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 of teaching them developed by him and his followers, form the basis of what has become known as the Alexander Technique. Dewey met Alexander in during World War I when Alexander was visiting New York and 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: promoteur du pragmatisme. Né à Burlington (Vermont), diplômé de l'université Johns Hopkins (1884), il enseigna à l'université du Michigan (1884-1888 et 1889-1894), de Chicago (1894-1904), et de Columbia (1904-1931). Parallèlement à ses cours magistraux, il se consacra à l'étude des systèmes éducatifs en Chine, au Japon, au Mexique, en Turquie et en Union soviétique. S'intéressant de façon active à une réforme de l'éducation, théorique et pratique, Dewey mit en uvre ses principes éducatifs dans l'«école-laboratoire» qu'il ouvrit à l'université de Chicago (1896-1904). Proches du pragmatisme de William James, ses principes font appel à l'activité, aux besoins et à la liberté de l'enfant : prévalence d'activités variées (travaux manuels, vie sociale) sur des programmes rigides; substitution de la motivation et de l'effort individuels à l'autorité et à la discipline ; plus qu''une préparation à la vie, l'éducation doit être un «processus de vie» au cours duquel l'enfant, loin des préoccupations de l'adulte, tire de ses expériences, de ses jeux son plaisir, son intérêt et sa norme. Cette conception de l'éducation, élaborée dans Mon credo pédagogique (1897), l'École et la société (1900), Démocratie et Éducation (1916), marqua la vie scolaire des États-Unis pendant la première moitié du XXe siècle.

Extractions: Life and Works John Dewey was born on October 20, 1859, the third of four sons born to Archibald Sprague Dewey and Lucina Artemesia Rich of Burlington, Vermont. The eldest sibling died in infancy, but the three surviving brothers attended the public school and the University of Vermont in Burlington with John. While at the University of Vermont, Dewey was exposed to evolutionary theory through the teaching of G.H. Perkins and Lessons in Elementary Physiology, a text by T.H. Huxley, the famous English evolutionist. The theory of natural selection continued to have a life-long impact upon Dewey's thought, suggesting the barrenness of static models of nature, and the importance of focusing on the interaction between the human organism and its environment when considering questions of psychology and the theory of knowledge. The formal teaching in philosophy at the University of Vermont was confined for the most part to the school of Scottish realism, a school of thought that Dewey soon rejected, but his close contact both before and after graduation with his teacher of philosophy, H.A.P. Torrey, a learned scholar with broader philosophical interests and sympathies, was later accounted by Dewey himself as "decisive" to his philosophical development. After graduation in 1879, Dewey taught high school for two years, during which the idea of pursuing a career in philosophy took hold. With this nascent ambition in mind, he sent a philosophical essay to W.T. Harris, then editor of the

Extractions: search support encyclopedia archives ... forum (This 'John Dewey' page is due to be extended). John Dewey (1859 - 1952) has made, arguably, the most significant contribution to the development of educational thinking in the twentieth century. Dewey's philosophical pragmatism, concern with interaction, reflection and experience, and interest in community and democracy, were brought together to form a highly suggestive educative form. John Deweyis often misrepresented - and wrongly associated with child-centred education. In many respects his work cannot be easily slotted into any one of the curriculum traditions that have dominated north American and UK schooling traditions over the last century. However, John Dewey's influence can be seen in many of the writers that have influenced the development of informal education over the same period. For example, Coyle, Kolb, Lindeman and Rogers drew extensively on his work. John Dewey's significance for informal educators lays in a number of areas. First, his belief that education must engage with and enlarge experience has continued to be a significant strand in informal education practice. Second, and linked to this, Dewey's exploration of thinking and reflection - and the associated role of educators - has continued to be an inspiration. We can see it at work, for example, in the models developed by writers such as David Boud and Donald Schön. Third, his concern with interaction and environments for learning provide a continuing framework for practice. Last, his passion for democracy, for educating so that all may share in a common life, provides a strong rationale for practice in the associational settings in which informal educators work.
