Abstract

J. Dewey writes Experience and education with a dual purpose: to respond to the criticisms of supporters of traditional schools; reiterate the basic concepts of activism for teachers who have decided to practice active teaching.. Furthermore, the writing takes place shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War, for this reason it becomes important to understand when an experience becomes an educational experience, that is, socially and individually desirable. The question is resolved by intertwining the philosophy of experience with active teaching, creating what Dewey defines as collateral learning, such as learning to learn, respect for others, love for nature, etc. These and other elements make Experience and education an absolutely current text, still able to function as an updating tool for teachers, educators and pedagogists.
