Experiencing Dewey Summary

Experiencing Dewey: Insights for Today's Classrooms by Donna Adair Breault

Experiencing Dewey: Insights for Today's Classroom offers an inspiring introduction to one of the most seminal figures in the field of education. In this collection of essays, contemporary authors consider their favorite quotations from John Dewey's bountiful works and share how Dewey has impacted their teaching practices. Responses are organized around the themes introduced in the first edition: active learning, the educative experience, critical thinking, inquiry and education, and democratic citizenship, plus a new section on accountability added for the second edition. Quotes and responses are kept deliberately brief as an effective way of inviting readers to reflect on and experience Dewey.

Co-published with Kappa Delta Pi, International Honor Society in Education, Experiencing Dewey remains a powerful resource for current and aspiring teachers. This thoroughly updated edition also includes online resources for teacher educators to help facilitate the book's use in higher education courses.

Experiencing Dewey Reviews

This second edition of Experiencing Dewey expands and strengthens an already highly useful text. The Breaults have once again extended Dewey's legacy by inviting new authors to re-imagine contemporary challenges in light of Dewey's work. This text will no doubt help new and seasoned Dewey readers alike to connect Dewey's work to the myriad problems we face today.-Wesley Null, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education, Baylor University

As a teacher educator and former public school teacher, I still find Dewey's work both formative and transformative. This book reminds us of Dewey's profound impact on education and the need to reflect and engage in a national discourse about the value of experience in the learning process as we prepare students for the 21st Century.-Maria Stallions, Associate Professor, Education, Roanoke University
