Understanding Life in School: From Academic Classroom to Outdoor Education

Autor John Quay
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 iul 2015
Attending school is an experience that most people share but this leads us to accept rather than question the experience. Using the philosophies of Heidegger and Dewey, John Quay explores life in schools and juxtaposes the environment of a school camp with that of an academic classroom.

Recenzii

“In Understanding Life in School: From Academic Classroom to Outdoor Education, John Quay endeavours to restore and promote Dewey’s concept of occupational education. … Quay does succeed in demonstrating the benefits of designing curriculum around occupational experiences—particularly where serenity and beauty are valued over speed and deadlines. Under these conditions, the outdoor curriculum featured in Understanding Life in School becomes a cooperative venture.” (Jefferson Kinsman, Educational Philosophy and Theory, March, 2018)
“Understanding Life In School offers a wealth of interesting narrative information about how these particular teens view their experiences in and out of school. It also makes avaliant effort at convincing us that we should educate children, not future adults.” (Susan Engel, Teachers College Record, 2016)
