Present Progressive

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or progressive:

    ‘Tis the world-old way of the rain
    When it comes to a mountain farm
    To exact for a present gain
    A little of future harm.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    There is, I think, no point in the philosophy of progressive education which is sounder than its emphasis upon the importance of the participation of the learner in the formation of the purposes which direct his activities in the learning process, just as there is no defect in traditional education greater than its failure to secure the active cooperation of the pupil in construction of the purposes involved in his studying.
    John Dewey (1859–1952)
