Zusammenfassung: | Reviews the book Discontinuity in Learning: Dewey, Herbart, and Education as Transformation by Andrea R. English (see record 2013-12852-000). English argues for a type of education that requires the teacher to disturb the students’ usual ways of thinking: Teachers support the students while they struggle by being careful listeners and guides. English bases her argument on ideas first discussed by the scientific pedagogue Johann Herbart and the pragmatic psychologist and philosopher John Dewey. The book should disturb many readers’ typical ways of thinking about education. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved) |
