John Dewey Quote

From the standpoint of the child,

the great waste
of the school

comes from his inability to utilize
the experiences
he gets outside the school
in any complete

and free
way within the school itself;

while, on the other hand,
he is unable to apply in daily life
what he is learning at school.

That is the isolation

of    the    school--

its

isolation

from

life.
