John Dewey (1859–1952) developed his pioneering experimentalist philosophy of education in the context of the social, political, scientific, and technological changes taking place in the United States in the twentieth century.
2. Dewey opened a laboratory school in 1896 to test his educational ideas. He organized  the curriculum into constructive, experimental, and creative activities: Develop children’s sensory and physical coordination, Provide opportunities for children to make and do things based on their interests, and Stimulate children to formulate, examine, and test their ideas by acting on them. 
3. Dewey designed "The Complete Act of Thought,” which he believed facilitated using the scientific method to solve all kinds of life problems. It involved these five steps:
-Encountering a “problematic situation” that contains something new or different from past experience and that blocks ongoing activity
-Locating and defining the specific new or different feature that is causing the problem
-Reflecting on past experience and researching the problem to find information to use in solving it
-Reflecting on the problem and constructing possible solutions to solve it
-Testing the possible solution that is most likely to solve the problem to determine if it works
