Through the responses which others make to his own activities he comes to know
what these mean in social terms.
The value which they have is reflected back
into them.

- We must be able
  to carry them back into a social past and see them as the inheritance of
  previous race activities. We must also be able to project them into the future
  to see what their outcome and end will be. In the illustration just used, it is
  the ability to see in the child's babblings the promise and potency of a future
  social intercourse and conversation which enables one to deal in the proper way
  with that instinct.
- only the idea of
  a development of all the mental powers without giving us any idea of the use to
  which these powers are put.
- as getting adjusted to civilization, makes of it a
  forced and external process, and results in subordinating the freedom of the
  individual to a preconceived social and political status.
- In sum, I believe that the individual who is to be educated is a social
  individual and that society is an organic union of individuals. If we eliminate
  the social factor from the child we are left only with an abstraction; if we
  eliminate the individual factor from society, we are left only with an inert and
  lifeless mass. Education, therefore, must begin with a psychological insight
  into the child's capacities, interests, and habits.
- I believe that education, therefore, is a process of living and not a
  preparation for future living.
- I believe that the school must represent present life-life as real and vital
  to the child as that which he carries on in the home, in the neighborhood, or on
  the playground.
- I believe that the school, as an institution, should simplify existing social
  life; should reduce it, as it were, to an embryonic form. Existing life is so
  complex that the child cannot be brought into contact with it without either
  confusion or distraction; he is either overwhelmed by the multiplicity of
  activities which are going on, so that he loses his own power of orderly
  reaction, or he is so stimulated by these various activities that his powers are
  prematurely called into play and he becomes either unduly specialized or else
  disintegrated.
- I believe that much of present education fails because it neglects this
  fundamental principle of the school as a form of community life
- I believe that the moral education centers upon this conception of the school
  as a mode of social life, that the best and deepest moral training is precisely
  that which one gets through having to enter into proper relations with others in
  a unity of work and thought.
