"The Democracy and Education"

"The Democracy and Education" by John Dewey explores how education should foster active, engaged citizens in a democratic society. Dewey argues that learning isn't just about absorbing facts but developing critical thinking, social skills, and a sense of community. Education should reflect democratic principles, encouraging students to participate, collaborate, and think independently. This approach prepares individuals to contribute thoughtfully to society, promoting both personal growth and a healthy democracy. Dewey emphasizes that education and democracy are interconnected, each supporting the other's development for a more just and vibrant community.
