Focusing on education's dual perspectives, John Dewey explores the interplay between a child's development and the curriculum. He emphasizes the importance of a child-centered approach, recognizing that children learn in a non-linear, relational manner, contrasting with adults' structured thinking. Dewey advocates for a curriculum that aligns with children's interests and experiences, highlighting the teacher's role in facilitating this process. The work underscores the need for educational practices that resonate with children's natural inclinations and social contexts.
