Abstract

"This is the second of three special issues on Progressive Education, Past, Present, and Future. The articles in this issue share the powerful theme of participatory reconstruction. In the specific cases, the actual educational activity or enterprise plays different roles in the reconstructive inquiry — and in each case we see the imaginative blending of ""progressive ideas"" with the complex ingredients of the concrete situation. On this view, the variety of tone, setting, and method exhibited in these papers is truly thought-provoking, and the editors believe the work of the writing, as a useful growth experience and inquiry for the authors, has added value to the various fields of work in which they are engaged."
