Synopsis
America's arch-philosopher of education wrote these two short pieces out of his experience with Chicago's laboratory school which he started in 1896. Dewey's first piece (1915) argues for making the school into a microsociety of the larger one, while in the second (1902) he seeks a curriculum acting as a kind of program for teachers to follow. Teachers can then guide children toward enough self-confidence to be assertive and exercise their capacities. Cited in Books for College Libraries, 3rd ed. Annotation c.
