DESCRIPTION:<p>The Center for Dewey Studies\, the School of Education\, the School of History &amp\; Philosophy\, and the Morris Library at Southern Illinois University invite you to an interdisciplinary\, international conference celebrating the legacy of John Dewey for education\, broadly construed. Dewey&rsquo\;s pragmatist and progressive philosophy of education has had a significant\, worldwide impact on theory\, policy\, and practice for well over a century\, and the significance of and appreciation for his ideas continues to grow. In particular\, Dewey&rsquo\;s philosophy of education has been highly influential on education theory and pedagogical practice in China in recent years. This conference will explore Dewey&rsquo\;s philosophical and practical contributions\, especially with respect to the study and practices of education\, as well as further developments of Dewey&rsquo\;s ideas in contemporary theory and practice. We are especially interested in work that speaks to the relevance and impact of Dewey internationally.</p>\n<p><strong>Invited Plenary Speakers</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Larry Hickman</strong> &ndash\; Professor Emeritus and former Director of the Center for Dewey Studies (1993-2015)\, Southern Illinois University</li>\n<li><strong>Sarah Stitzlein</strong> &ndash\; Professor of Education &amp\; Affiliate Professor of Philosophy\, University of Cincinnati\; Co-Editor of Democracy &amp\; Education.</li>\n<li><strong>Jim Garrison</strong> &ndash\; Professor Emeritus in Foundations of Education at Virginia Tech\; winner of the 2023 SAAP Herbert Schneider Award for his career-long achievement of distinguished contributions to the understanding of American Philosophy.&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Additional speakers TBA</li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong>Program Committee</strong></p>\n<ul>\n<li>Matthew J.
