Dewey studied philosophy in the United States, he has a pragmatic philosophy, different from the European one, is much more practical. He entered a high school as a teacher to teach philosophy, but then he was a professor at the university, in the philosophy of education. His pedagogy and school was developed during the 20th century.

Democracy School and How we think they were his most important books, in Democracy School, it is said that school should serve to form a new, more equal society and mostly a  more democratic society. In the other book  “how we think” a method of reflective thinking is explained, reflecting on what we learn and how to apply the scientific method in schools.

The methodology that Dewey was looking for was that the children know the world from school, Knowing the world from school was Dewey's main intention but with some filters, in his school looked for production and that was a space of reflection so that the production and the reflection have to take to the experiences of the social life. From this experiences we will be lead to citizenship.
