Abstract
This paper explores whether 21st-century sustainable education can learn from the nearly century-old message of John Dewey. Dewey criticized the traditional education of his time, and he compared it with the progressive educational ideas that emerged at the beginning of the 20th century. Education, including higher edu cation, should play an important role in tackling the global challenges that humanity faces in the 21st century. The analytical method of this paper aims to show arguments and counter-arguments related to traditional and progressive education based on Dewey’ book Experience and Education published in 1938. This paper presents his thoughts based on the following nine criteria: the purpose of education, the methods of education, learning processes, study materials, the roles of teachers and students, the organization of education, societal impacts, and the challenges facing education. We argue that Dewey pointed out important messages that are still relevant and applicable to sustainable education in the 21st century.
