Abstract
THE REFLEX ARC THEORY AND EDUCATION. EXPERIENCE AS DIDACTIC ISSUE IN JOHN DEWEY’S THOUGHT
Abstract
In this paper I will try to focus in the John Dewey’s thought on the relationship between the centrality of the Reflex Arc theory, developed in the essay «The Reflex Arc concept» of 1896, which derives from the essay Soul and Body of 1886, fundamental to understand Deweyan thought and some aspects of Classical Pragmatism, and the didactic issues as developed in the texts: «My pedagogic creed» of 1897 and «The school and society» of 1899.
