Pragmatism: Method/Curriculum

• (^) For Pragmatists, teaching methods focus

on hands-on problem solving,

experimenting, and projects, often

having students work in groups.

Curriculum should bring the disciplines

together to focus on solving problems in

an interdisciplinary way.

Pragmatism: Method/Curriculum

• (^) Education should be preparation for life
• (^) Solving problems is important; therefore

use real-life situations

• (^) Teaching methods should be varied and

2. WILLIAM JAMES

• (^) One of James's most important contributions to the study of pragmatism is his concern with religion. According to James, truth should be evaluated based on its impact on human behavior; therefore, one's religious faith can be justified if it makes a positive difference in one's life.

3. JOHN DEWEY

• (^) John Dewey pragmatism serves as

a realistic and participatory

approach to teaching educational

establishment. Educators believe

in an interdisciplinary education or

one that focused on linking several

courses. In this situation, the

teacher’s function might be more

of a facilitator than an educator.
