  <description><![CDATA[<em>Experience and Education</em> is the best concise statement on education ever published by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the twentieth century. Written more than two decades after <em>Democracy and Education</em> (Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had received.<p>Analyzing both &quot;traditional&quot; and &quot;progressive&quot; education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience. Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience and its relation to education. He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of education rather than in terms of some divisive &quot;ism&quot; about education, even such an &quot;ism&quot; as &quot;progressivism.&quot; His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of experience, on that offers a true learning situation that is both historical and social, both orderly and dynamic.</p>]]></description>

    <![CDATA[<em>Experience and Education</em> is the best concise statement on education ever published by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the twentieth century. Written more than two decades after <em>Democracy and Education</em> (Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had received.<p>Analyzing both &quot;traditional&quot; and &quot;progressive&quot; education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience. Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience and its relation to education. He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of education rather than in terms of some divisive &quot;ism&quot; about education, even such an &quot;ism&quot; as &quot;progressivism.&quot; His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of experience, on that offers a true learning situation that is both historical and social, both orderly and dynamic.</p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This is my favorite of all Dewey's books. He wrote it in an attempt to correct many misinterpretations of his work and writing. The &quot;bad&quot; progressive practices being done in his name are part of the legacy I feel like I still fight against as an educator.

    <body><![CDATA[This is a fabulous nutshell of a book that captures the essential of John Dewey's pragmatist take on education.  Even though it was written in the 1930s, it offers so much for those of us involved in public education today.  Arne Duncan and Barak Obama should read this right away!]]></body>

    <![CDATA[<em>Experience and Education</em> is the best concise statement on education ever published by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the twentieth century. Written more than two decades after <em>Democracy and Education</em> (Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had received.<p>Analyzing both &quot;traditional&quot; and &quot;progressive&quot; education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience. Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience and its relation to education. He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of education rather than in terms of some divisive &quot;ism&quot; about education, even such an &quot;ism&quot; as &quot;progressivism.&quot; His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of experience, on that offers a true learning situation that is both historical and social, both orderly and dynamic.</p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[<em>Experience and Education</em> is an essay on the philosophy of education. Given first at a series of lectures in 1938, it is part of an ongoing dialog about how we should proceed with our educational system. Then, as now, people were dismayed about the state of their schools. In this work, Dewey does not...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/13158098">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I like what Dewey has to say, although I think he was a bit idealistic when it came to classroom discipline.  The writing style is archaic, but that's to be expected since it's just a reprint of his original treatise.  If you can get past that, there are some good theories buried in it. ]]></body>

That said, I think it gave me a better idea of the kind of teacher I'd like to be, a balance between the traditional and progressive (though more the latter than the former of course).]]></body>

    <![CDATA[<em>Experience and Education</em> is the best concise statement on education ever published by John Dewey, the man acknowledged to be the pre-eminent educational theorist of the twentieth century. Written more than two decades after <em>Democracy and Education</em> (Dewey's most comprehensive statement of his position in educational philosophy), this book demonstrates how Dewey reformulated his ideas as a result of his intervening experience with the progressive schools and in the light of the criticisms his theories had received.<p>Analyzing both &quot;traditional&quot; and &quot;progressive&quot; education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully developed philosophy of experience. Many pages of this volume illustrate Dr. Dewey's ideas for a philosophy of experience and its relation to education. He particularly urges that all teachers and educators looking for a new movement in education should think in terms of the deeped and larger issues of education rather than in terms of some divisive &quot;ism&quot; about education, even such an &quot;ism&quot; as &quot;progressivism.&quot; His philosophy, here expressed in its most essential, most readable form, predicates an American educational system that respects all sources of experience, on that offers a true learning situation that is both historical and social, both orderly and dynamic.</p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Written in 1932 and yet still extremely relevant. A very short read that doesn't re-iterate the same points over and over again like most books on the sociology of eduation do. Some flaws to the arguements but still a very good place to start of to get into the subject matter.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[These tenets ring true time and time again. Informs about 99% of what I do as an educator to this day. As dense as it can be sometimes, I still actually pick it up and read it again for kicks.]]></body>
