Latasha Holt

Academicus International Scientific Journal, 2020, issue 21, 142-150

Abstract: This article provides a thorough analysis of John Dewey and his theory experimentalism. John Dewey was a leader in education and philosophy of his time. Still today his ideologies have a place in educational curriculums across the globe. John Dewey believed that students learn from human experiences. Furthermore, Dewey believed that student experiences shape the future decisions that a learner engages in. Although Dewey�s work faced scrutiny, Dewey�s thoughts are still relevant in education reform today. This article resurfaces the need for whole child research considerations and inclusive learner experiences like Dewey�s work many years ago when making educational decision and building curriculum that meet the needs of individuals to promote a positive global change.
