Summary of How We Think

"How We Think" by John Dewey is an exploration of the psychological foundations of thought and learning. It examines how the thinking process works and how it can be used to enhance learning and problem-solving ability. Dewey examines topics such as the unconscious mind, the role of emotion in reasoning, and the role of imagination and creativity. He also explores the idea of multiple intelligences and how they can be used to make learning more effective. Additionally, Dewey examines the social and cultural aspects of learning and how they can shape the thinking process. Ultimately, Dewey argues that thinking should be seen as an active and creative process, not merely a passive one.
