  • eBook:Women Educators in the Progressive Era

    Women Educators in the Progressive Era

    The Women behind Dewey’s Laboratory School
    A. Durst
    978-0-230-10995-7
    2010
    Edition 1
    • This book will provide a collective biographical study of four Progressive era teachers, and will also add new understandings to the lives of their more famous friends and colleagues, such as John and Alice Dewey, George Herbert and Helen Castle Mead, Jane Addams, and Ella Flagg Young. It is also an exploration of the teachers' work in other innovative institutions, such as the Woods Hole Laboratories, Chautauqua, and Hull House
    • While many educators know of John Dewey's innovations, little focus has been brought to the women who made his school work and helped develop the systems that have been so influential to this day
    • Durst draws upon neverbefore analyzed archival material, letters of correspondence, and notes from John Dewey and the leading female educators at his facilities, to show a new vantage point; that of four teachers whose daily work brought the school's founding ideas to life
