A little about the book
Dewey describes the change from having a passing idea to examining a problem with reasons and evidence. He uses familiar examples to ask how schools can cultivate habits of inquiry that carry beyond a lesson.
The book works well when read alongside a problem you have actually had to solve. Compare the moment you began to doubt your first answer with Dewey’s account of what sets reflective thought in motion.
