CIMPEAN’S ASSERTION on DEWEY’S PROGRESSIVISM

/in /by

 In “Work or Love? A Christian Evaluation of John Dewey’s Views on the Purpose of Schooling,” Cimpean states:
 

Dewey rejects the Christian purpose for schooling, which is to serve and  love God. When evaluated from a Christian perspective, Dewey’s  progressivism falls short due to its refusal to promote the Christian  ideal of serving and loving God. Dewey’s purpose for schooling is to  promote a democratic state.
