Are there empirical anomalies upon which Dewey’s theory of action sheds better light than existing neoclassical and heterodox approaches? The introduction answers in the affirmative. They are the set of anomalies highlighted by behavioral economics. These anomalies stress the centrality of context. Neoclassical theorists react to the ‘context problematic’ by claiming that context, after all, is...

This theme drove both John Dewey's Progressive Movement and the creation of the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (1989) by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). The remarkable similarity in thought between Dewey's writings and the...

This article is a longer reflection on Frank Cunningham's Ideas in Context light of the pragmatic philosophy John Dewey.

The current emphasis in K-12 education on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) (Douglas, Iversen, & Kalyandurg, 2004; Sanders, 2009) creates many ways to partner engineering education with these fields. Therefore, it is appropriate to examine the commonalities these fields have with engineering education. Though much of the science education and mathematics education history...

In neuerer Zeit wird in der Information Systems darüber gestritten, ob Struktur in Technologie eingebettet ist oder in der Praxis emergiert. Demgegenüber wird vor dem Hintergrund einer angemessenen Unterstützung von Aneignungsarbeit, für einen Perspektivenwechsel bzgl. der Fragestellung geworben: anstatt zu bestimmen, wo genau Struktur verortet ist, gilt es vielmehr sich der Frage zu zuwenden, ...

Feature reduction is an important process before documents classification. The classification performance is impact by the quality of the selected. A new semantic approach is presented using synonym merge to preserve features semantic and prevent important terms from being excluded. The resulting feature space were then processed with five feature selection methods, ID, TFIDF, CHI, IG and MI. e...
