John Dewey, an Appreciation
Clopton, Robert W.
Educational Perspectives, v47 n1-2 p55-60 2015
The subject of the annual Presidential address of Phi Kappa Phi, presented on May 8, 1962, was John Dewey. Dewey is identified in the public mind chiefly as an educational philosopher. In this address, the author describes the life and work of John Dewey as an indefatigable student of life whose interests ranged, like those of Aristotle, over the spectrum of human experience and whose curiosity and incisive intelligence led him into analyses of an almost incredible variety of human problems.
