PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION BY WILLIAM HEARD KILPATRIC [HARDCOVER]

William Heard Kilpatrick's philosophy of education is rooted in Progressive Education and centers on child-centered, experience-based learning, heavily influenced by John Dewey. He is best known for developing the Project Method, which involves students actively engaging in real-world projects, fostering problem-solving and collaboration rather than traditional rote memorization. His views emphasize that education is an ongoing, lifelong process that should be integrated with life itself, and that the teacher's role is that of a guide, not an authoritarian figure.
