John Dewey (1859-1952) believed that learning was active and schooling unnecessarily long and restrictive. His idea was that children came to school to do things and live in a community which gave them real, guided experiences which fostered their capacity to contribute to society. For example, Dewey believed that students should be involved in real-life tasks and challenges:
-
maths could be learnt via learning proportions in cooking or figuring out how long it would take to get from one place to another by mule
-
history could be learnt by experiencing how people lived, geography, what the climate was like, and how plants and animals grew, were important subjects
