Focusing on the four intellectual giants of the 20th century--John Dewey, Howard Gardner, Carol Gilligan, and John Ogbu--the book provides biographical information and analysis of their intellectual contributions. Each of these individuals caused a major paradigm shift in American education with their intellectual influence, and each, in their unique contribution indelibly shaped education for the better. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach educator represents one aspect of that most American of educational philosophies: Progressive Education. Progressive educators sought to educate the whole child: intellectually, morally, socially, and aesthetically. In \u003ci\u003eEminent Educators\u003c\/i\u003e, Dewey represents two aspects of Progressive Education, intellectually and aesthetically; Gardner redefined intelligence; Gilligan probed the moral development of girls\/women; and Ogbu remapped the education of African Americans, thus representing the social change aspect of Progressive Education.","brand":"Greenwood Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45083493335191,"sku":"9780313310607","price":7643.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780313310607.webp?v=1767263899","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/eminent-educators-studies-in-intellectual-influence-9780313310607","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
