John Dewey is regarded as the father of Progressive Education, but actually he was neither its first philosopher nor its first schoolmaster. First great modern philosopher was Rousseau, who, in Emile (1762), advocated a child-centred school. First Progressive-school system in the U. S. was started in 1875 by the late Colonel Francis Wayland Parker in Quincy, Mass.
