THE FIRST UNIVERSITY AND THE FORMATION OF JOHN DEWEY’S VIEWS

Summary/Abstract: The figure of John Dewey is considered one of the most influential in American philosophical and pedagogical thought of the 20th century. In the course of our research, we used materials about the scientist, referring to the works of American researchers John Dewey – Hook S. [1], Coughlan N. [3], McDermott D.J. [2], Shilpp P.A. [8], Ryan A. [4], Rockefeller S. [5], Westbrook R. [6], Dunhuizen J. [7], which have not been translated into the Ukrainian language, which allows us to understand more profoundly and perceive the life of a prominent scientist. These works analyze and describe the multifaceted life, creative work, ideas, primary works, and principles of John Dewey’s philosophical, social, political, and pedagogical activity. John Dewey had a great thirst for knowledge. Thanks to his perseverance and intelligence, he analyzed what society and science needed. We believe that his natural intelligence and the right intellectual environment shaped him into a great intellectual. This article will explore how studying at the University of Vermont contributed to this.
