John Dewey's Educational Ideal

For John Dewey there was nothing as important as education, not only on an individual level, but also on the societal. He was a champion of democracy and longed to see it thrive, but in order for this to occur he knew that we must first take the necessary steps to build an educational system which allowed for each citizen to make full use of his/her capacity.
