Analyzing both "traditional" and "progressive" education, Dr. Dewey here insists that neither the old nor the new education is adequate and that each is miseducative because neither of them applies the principles of a carefully d [More..] | |

Sparked by the confluence of accelerating domestic transformation and increasingly explicit impacts from 'globalization', the Japanese education system has undergone tremendous changes during the turbulence of the past decade. This volume, which brings together some of the foremost scholars in the field of Japanese education, analyses these recent changes in ways that help us 'reimagine' Japan and Japanese educational change at this critical juncture.

Officials at the state and local level determine the content of students' education, and it is the teacher's job to ensure that the content is taught. Even before the beginning of the twentieth century, John Dewey and others introduced a different model. They believed that students learn best "by doing" not by [More..] | |
