Education is a “Necessity of Life.” In the book Democracy and Education, John Dewey’s postulation about education being a necessity of life illuminates the need for real world application to education. Dewey was a progressive educator who understood that students are failed by the concept of education if they fail to link what is happening in class to what is out there in the real world. He, therefore, sought to bridge the theory and practice concepts of education and argues that the idea of learning in the classroom has to link to the experience outside the classroom. In ...
