John Dewey
His philosophies were harmful to the American education. Dewey applied evolution to the classroom. because he felt that man was in animal and shaped by his environment, permissiveness in the classroom would, in Dewey’s thinking lead to higher development. to Dewey, social adjustment was more important than academic learning; this eliminates individual accountability and responsibility. academic and moral breakdown soon followed.
