According to John Dewey, students should relate the information which is provided to them with experiences from their own life. They should not memorize information recited by a teacher, and they should be aware of their potential and use it rather than receiving pre-determined skills. They also should have active participation in economic, social and political decisions that will impact their life. He also upheld the idea that students only prosper in an environment where they can experience the curriculum by taking part in their learning, highlighting the importance of learning how to live instead of just getting knowledge and information.
