What can education learn from the arts about the practice of education *

Before I begin my remarks, I want to express my gratitude to the Dewey Society for inviting me to deliver this address. It's the third time I have been asked to do so. The first invitation came from the University of Chicago in 1976, the second from the Dewey Society in 1979, and the third this year. I regard the invitation as both a pleasure and a privilege. For both the pleasure and the privilege I thank you.
