Person John Dewey (1859 - 1952) American philosopher & educatorQuotation On schools and teaching by John Dewey (1859 - 1952) American philosopher & educatorOn the ideal of using the present simply to get ready for the future contradicts itself by John Dewey (1859 - 1952) American philosopher & educator Quotations from John Dewey: Since there is no single set of abilities running throughout human nature, there is no single curriculum which all should undergo. Rather, the schools should teach everything that anyone is interested in learning. John Dewey, (1859 - 1952) American philosopher & educator The ideal of using the present simply to get ready for the future contradicts itself. It omits, and even shuts out, the very conditions by which a person can be prepared for his future. We always live at the time we live and not at some other time, and only by extracting at each present time the full meaning of each present experience are we prepared for doing the same thing in the future. This is the only preparation which in the long run amounts to anything. John Dewey, (1859 - 1952) American philosopher & educator
