61. John Dewey Vs. The Alexander Technique
    The philosophy of john dewey, with emphasis on its relation to the Alexander Technique.  
    http://geocities.com/agarap/dewey
    
    Extractions: John Dewey vs. the Alexander Technique The Alexander Technique is a method of carriage awareness and improvement carriage in the sense of how you carry yourself, grace, lightness, ease of movement. It's usually taught privately, the teacher certified by a professional society such as AmSAT, ATI, and STAT after undergoing three years of training. It was discovered and developed by F. Matthias Alexander (1869-1955), and today is widely known among musicians, dancers, and actors. Everyone, though, can benefit from the Alexander Technique. (For more about it, see STAT The American philosopher John Dewey (1859-1952) recommended the Alexander Technique, and today teachers frequently use his endorsement in their advertisements. Further, Dewey claimed the Alexander Technique illustrated his own philosophy, and some teachers repeat that claim in their descriptions of the Technique. A Google.com search for "Alexander Technique" shows how often Dewey's endorsement gets used in Alexander Technique literature. Of the first ten websites it lists, eight of them feature Dewey's endorsement or furnish a link to a site that does. The question is: is Dewey's endorsement valuable?

    Extractions: Dewey, John Dewey, John, Dewey's original philosophy, called instrumentalism, bears a relationship to the utilitarian and pragmatic schools of thought. Instrumentalism holds that the various modes and forms of human activity are instruments developed by human beings to solve multiple individual and social problems. Since the problems are constantly changing, the instruments for dealing with them must also change. Truth, evolutionary in nature, partakes of no transcendental or eternal reality and is based on experience that can be tested and shared by all who investigate. Dewey conceived of democracy as a primary ethical value, and he did much to formulate working principles for a democratic and industrial society. In education his influence has been a leading factor in the abandonment of authoritarian methods and in the growing emphasis upon learning through experimentation and practice. In revolt against abstract learning, Dewey considered education as a tool that would enable the citizen to integrate culture and vocation effectively and usefully. Dewey actively participated in movements to forward social welfare and woman's suffrage, protect academic freedom, and effect political reform.

    Extractions: Professor John Dewey on Posture by Will Jakes It is as reasonable to expect a fire to go out when it is ordered to stop burning as to suppose that a man can stand straight in consequence of a direct action of thought and desire. - John Dewey John Dewey (1859-1952) was an American philosopher and educator whose writings and teachings have had a profound influence on education in the United States. Dewey's philosophy of education, instrumentalism (also called pragmatism), focused on learning-by-doing rather than rote learning and dogmatic instruction, the current practice of his day. A concise summary and explanation of Dewey's educational philosophy can be found in the International Encyclopedia of Education F. Matthias Alexander(1869-1955) was an Australian who developed the educational process that is today commonly called the Alexander Technique - a method of helping people learn how to improve their posture, balance and coordination. The two men met around 1918 in New York City when Dewey had a series of lessons with Alexander. These, and subsequent lessons and conversations and correspondence, had a profound impact on Dewey. He felt that his lessons taught him how to stop and think before acting and enabled him to hold a philosophical position calmly once he had taken it or to change it if new evidence appeared.

    Extractions: Überblick und Zusammenfassung des pädagogischen Hauptwerkes "Demokratie und Erziehung" von John Dewey 1. Teil: Erziehung als ein sozialer Prozeß Der erste Teil umfaßt die ersten 6 Kapitel von "Demokratie und Erziehung". Besonders relevant sind die Kapitel 1 bis 3 John Dewey geht vom Lebensprozeß als einem konkreten und praktischen Prozeß aus, der auf zwei Ebenen abläuft, der physischen Ebene und der sozialen Ebene. Auf der physischen Ebene dient der Lebensprozeß der Reproduktion und der Fortpflanzung und auf der sozialen Ebene sorgt dieser Prozeß für die Erhaltung und Erneuerung der Gesellschaft. Dieser Prozeß, der auf der sozialen Ebene angesiedelt ist, ist ein Bildungsprozeß, der Gruppen erhält und erneuert und der damit auch für die Erhaltung, Kontinuität und die Erneuerung der Gesellschaft zuständig ist. Erziehung ist vor allem ein sozialer Vorgang, ein sozialer Prozeß, bei dem das Individuum und die Gruppe sich wechselseitig voraussetzen. Das einzelne Individuum trägt mit dazu bei, daß die Gruppe aufgebaut und erweitert wird und die Gruppe sorgt dafür, daß die Ich-Identität des Schulkindes aufgebaut und erweitert wird. Das einzelne Individuum betrachtet Dewey als ein Handlungszentrum praktischer und sozialer Art, das über die Bildung vermittelt Gruppen aufbaut und Gruppen "bildet". Die Gruppe dient hierbei als eine Voraussetzung der bildenden Erziehung, weil die Gruppe als "Erzieher" des Einzelnen fungiert.

    Extractions: Impartió clases en las universidades de Minnesota, Chicago, Michigan y más tarde en Columbia donde le ofrecieron una cátedra. Según Dewey, a través de la razón es posible alcanzar la estabilidad a pesar de los problemas que plantea la realidad. Este filósofo sostiene que "el antiguo dualismo entre sensación e idea se repite en el dualismo usual de estructuras y funciones periféricas y centrales, el antiguo dualismo del cuerpo y el alma halla un eco distinto en el actual del estímulo y la respuesta". Con esta sentencia presenta una teoría basada en la funcionalidad. Su legado le presenta como un autor interesado en las cuestiones sociales y del hombre. Preocupado por los problemas del aprendizaje, su teoría en esta materia partía del estudio de los impulsos que, a juicio de Dewey, se podían controlar gracias al aprendizaje. Es autor de "Estudios de teoría lógica", "Democracia y educación", "Experiencia y naturaleza", "Lógica, teoría de la investigación" y "Problemas del hombre", entre otras obras.

    Extractions: Print article Tell a friend Find subscription deals Gale Encyclopedia of Psychology American philosopher, educator, and psychologist who made significant contributions to the establishment of the school of functional psychology. John Dewey was born near Burlington, Vermont. After receiving his B.A. from the University of Vermont, he taught high school and studied philosophy independently before entering the graduate program in philosophy at Johns Hopkins University. After receiving his Ph.D. in 1884, Dewey served on the faculties of the University of Michigan, the University of Minnesota, the University of Chicago, and Columbia University. Dewey was a founder of the philosophical movement called pragmatism, and his writings on educational theory and practice were widely read and accepted. He held that the disciplines of philosophy, pedagogy, and psychology should be understood as closely interrelated. Dewey came to believe in an "instrumentalist" theory of knowledge, in which ideas are seen to exist primarily as instruments for the solution of problems encountered in the environment. Dewey was also an educational reformer and a pioneer in the field of educational psychology. Paralleling his philosophical and psychological theories, his concept of instrumentalism in education stressed learning by doing, as opposed to authoritarian teaching methods and rote learning. Dewey's ideas have remained at the center of much educational philosophy in the United States. While at the University of Chicago, Dewey founded an experimental school to develop and study new educational methods, a project that won him both fame and controversy. He experimented with educational curricula and methods, successfully combining theory and practice, and also pioneered in advocating parental participation in the educational process. His first influential book on education
