- John Dewey (1859-1952), a father and pioneer of progressive education during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, continues to be the most acknowledged proponent of progressive and experimental education in the 21st century. Numerous documents have reported Dewey’s influence on educational leaders, including many women, during the 1900s and beyond. However, recent studies have shed new light on Dewey’s contributions to education and psychology. This article describes ten women who explicitly influenced the ideas of John Dewey and the practices of experimental education. These include Alice Chipman, Jane Addams, Katherine Camp, Ella Flagg Young, Anna Bryan, Evelyn Dewey, Marietta Johnson, Lucy Sprague Mitchell, Patty Smith Hill, and Caroline Pratt.
