Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Dewey's views on education follow from his version of pragmatism.In this essay I shall argue that Dewey's pragmatism did not allow him to develop a coherent theory of moral education.Dewey's rhetoric suggests that his position on moral education can be associated with virtue ethics, yet, although he used conspicuously "moral" terms such as "virtues" and "habits" throughout his writings, this did not amount to a workable theory of moral education.For Dewey, virtue amounted to the cultivation of correct habits, which he deemed to be of primary concern to education.His views on habits (and consequently on virtues), however, are inconsistent.I shall show that the discrepancies in Dewey's views on "virtues" are not due to a mere sloppiness in writing but rather due to Dewey's pragmatism.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
