Q

Explain the impact of the Education Philosophers on education in America

A

Two groups of European philosophers greatly impacted education in America. The first group was Luther and Calvin. Their ideas helped impact the early Christian schools. Rousseau, Herbart, and Froebel impacted the public school system. The ideas brought over by them are still in effect today. It is believed that John Winthrop had offered Comenius the presidency at Harvard College but declined. Instead Reverend Jared Sparks took the position. Had Comenius accepted the presidency, things may be different today. It was through Harvard that Naturalism began to seep in. The ideas were brought to America when young American men would go to Europe to study and then come back to America as university professors. Students like John Dewey were then taught these beliefs.
