"Berbagai zaman di masa lalu memiliki perjuangan dan minat tersendiri. Masing-masing zaman besar ini telah meninggalkan semacam simpanan budaya, seperti lapisan geologis. Deposito ini telah menemukan jalan mereka ke lembaga pendidikan dalam bentuk studi, kursus studi yang berbeda, jenis sekolah yang berbeda."

--- John Dewey

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Various epochs of the past have had their own characteristic struggles and interests. Each of these great epochs has left behind itself a kind of cultural deposit, like a geologic stratum. These deposits have found their way into educational institutions in the form of studies, distinct courses of study, distinct types of schools.
