Dewey’spragmatism produced concrete results such as the laboratory schools, which pioneered theprogressive early education movement, and emphasizes teaching principles in contextthrough practice.Pragmatism and the ethic of care can be translated into engineering practice, and includedin the way we teach engineering and science in the early part of the curriculum forexample. Students should be made aware that science is dynamic, and that knowledgechanges. We do not normally convey this when teaching science. The pragmatic waywould say that rather than
