Without some of these important founders, our educational system would still be in the medieval era. The following four examples of progressive education will open the eyes of how great our school systems are today. On October 20, 1959 was the 100th anniversary of John Dewey's Birthday. John Dewey was a dominant figure in American education. John dewey believed that students should be involved in real life tasks and challenges. Between the two World Wars, where previously backward countries were obliged to catch up on modern methods. In places such as Turkey, Japan, China, the Soviet Union and Latin America. The reshapers of the educational system turned toward Dewey's innovations for guidance. Each generation of children is not only helped but hindered and hurt by the elders who exercise direct control over them. His idea was that children came to school to do things and live in a community which gave them real guided experiences which fostered their capability to contribute to society. A quote from John Dewey states, "Education is life itself." The No Child Left Behind Act was signed into law by president Bush on January 8, 2002. No Child Left Behind came at a time...

  • Essay on Forced Founders

    ...Forced Founders In Forced Founders by Woody Holton, Holton argues that Indian and slave rebellions were the primary force in the Independence movement in Virginia. It is commonly believed that the land-owning gentry class prompted the revolution in Virginia. Nevertheless, Holton shows how slaves, American Indians, and debtors may have actually played a much greater part in the Independence movement than popular history suggests. Holton?s contention is that class conflict acted as a powerful catalyst in the revolutionary movement as the wealthy land owners such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were forced into joining the revolution on account of controlling the Indian rebellions on the Western front and the slave rebels at home. The Native American tribes in the Western frontier played a major role in the Virginia revolutionary movement. The elite Virginian gentry?s desire for Western Native American lands rapidly grew in the mid-eighteenth century. The wealthy Virginians made many attempts to attain these lands and the Native Americans resisted hard to defend what their land. Furthermore, the British government was more accommodating to the Natives than the Virginians wished. Parliament was careful not to incense native tribes for fear of a costly war or rebellion. A British official exclaimed that Indian rebellions (specifically Pontiac?s Rebellion) were ?expensive and destructive to his Majesty?s Subjects.? For example, in October...

  • Founder Vs Founder Essay

    ...Jessica Hougnon Founder Vs Founder 1. The Enlightenment thinker that I most agree with is John Locke. I most agree with him because he concurs with Hobbes about the severity of the condition of nature, which obliges a social contract to guarantee peace. Be that as it may, he can't help contradicting 2 things. He contended that regular rights, for example, life, liberty, and property existed in the condition of nature and could never be taken away or even willfully surrendered by people. Locke additionally couldn't help contradicting Hobbes about the social contract. For him, it was an assention among the individuals, as well as in the middle of them and the sovereign. Despite the fact that he stood up for freedom of thought, speech, and religion, he accepted property to be the most vital regular right. I like this because he feels strongly about ensuring peace to others. Also, I like that he believes that life, liberty, and property cannot be taken away from you no matter what. I think that is very important. We need more people in the world like this. 2. I most agree with Benjamin Franklin regarding how liberty and security should be balanced in our country.

  • The Knowledge of the Founders Essay

    ...Luckily, the Founders were remarkably well-read. The philosophies of great minds like Polybius (Greek political philosopher, mixed form of government and checks and balances), Cicero (philosopher, Natural Law), Thomas Hooker (Natural Law; also, he wrote Connecticut's state constitution, which was one of the modern world's first written constitutions and was a primary influence upon our own Constitution), Montesquieu (political philosopher, Separation of Powers), Sir Edward Coke (legal philosopher), Sir William Blackstone (Natural Law; Ten Commandments), John Locke (Natural law), Adam Smith (economic philosopher, Founder of Capitalism), and Jesus influenced the Founders profoundly. The Founders studied Polybius, whose written works provided a theoretical account of the development of society and government. Polybius saw the history of government as falling into a recurring cycle by which kingship inevitably gave way to successive stages of tyranny, aristocracy, oligarchy, democracy, and anarchy, at which point a strong leader would merge and establish himself as king, thus starting the cycle over again. The only hope of breaking the cycle, Polybius maintained, lay in a "mixed" form of government (mixed elements) and certainly not in a pure democracy. The Founders read Adam Smith's groundbreaking and insightful work "The Wealth of Nations," which was published in 1776, and which influenced their decision...
