John Dewey
Progressive educational reformer (1859-1952). Considered the first pragmatist in that he sought to improve schools within the framework of a traditional bureaucracy. Skrtic argues that Dewey supported worthwhile changes in education but could not implement them because schools during the industrial revolution (and today) are structured as machine bureaucracies.
