Searching for the Missing One in the History of Education:The Era and Life of Alice Chipman Dewey

爱丽丝·奇普曼·杜威作为约翰·杜威的妻子,长期被教育史学者所遗忘。爱丽丝是美国第一代接受高等教育的女性,她在促使青年杜威的理智兴趣从古典哲学扩大到现代社会领域,特别是教育问题的过程中,发挥了关键性影响。她参与创办和管理芝加哥实验学校,协助杜威将他提出的理论原则应用于学校生活,并不断加以修正与调整。爱丽丝为美国女性争取平等的教育和政治权利而努力,在与杜威的远东之行中也为中国的男女合校运动作出了贡献。爱丽丝的一生折射着19世纪末20世纪初美国社会和教育的变迁、进步和争议,研究杜威的教育理论和社会行动不能忽视爱丽丝的存在与影响。
