What is John Dewey and the Art of Teaching : Toward Reflective and Imaginative Practice about?

'This text is an intriguing alternative to the steady diet of ′how to′ texts that dominate educational readings.'–Ranae Stetson, Texas Christian University'At a time when critical-reflective teaching is constantly in jeopardy, John Dewey and the Art of Teaching is very refreshing. Both prospective and experienced teachers should find this work helpful if they are serious about realizing democratic values. Policy makers need to take the time to read this work to be reminded of the core values of democratic education.'–John Portelli, University of Toronto, Canada'The authors, by championing the relationship of art to education, offer a much needed counterbalance to our society′s over-reliance on standardized testing. I enthusiastically endorse this work and would readily use it in both undergraduate social foundations of education and masters′ level philosophy of education courses.'–Tony Johnson, West Chester University'At last we have a volume that beckons the uninitiated reader into a study of Dewey′s significant ideas about the art of teaching. The authors demonstrate great intellectual integrity in describing these ideas while expressing them in practical, even elegant prose.'–Ja
