Reforming All the Time: Recuperating the Tradition of the Active Mind for Teacher Education.
Bickman, Martin
Phi Delta Kappan, v82 n4 p300-03 Dec 2000
The tradition of the active mind views knowledge as provisionally constructed by the mind in perpetual interaction with the world. There are no substitutes for students' and teachers' consistent application of intelligence and steady thinking. A problem-based-learning approach to teacher education exemplifies John Dewey's laboratory model. (Contains 13 references.) (MLH)
