Since history has no properly scientific value, its only purpose is educative. And if historians neglect to educate the public, if they fail to interest it intelligently in the past, then all their historical learning is valueless except in so far as it educates themselves.
G. M. Trevelyan
Image
The belief that all genuine education comes about through experience does not mean that all experiences are genuinely or equally educative.
John Dewey
Image
Not only is social life identical with communication, but all communication (and hence all genuine social life) is educative.
John Dewey
Image
While every social arrangement is educative in effect, the educative effect first becomes an important part of the purpose of the association in connection with the association of the older with the younger.
John Dewey
Image
Education is one thing and instruction, however worthy, necessary and incidentally or monetarily educative, another.
Kingsley Amis
Image
Loneliness is an integral part of travelling. I used to think it was the downside to travelling, but now I realise it is a necessary educative part of it to be embraced.
David Mitchell

The chief end of science is to make things clear, the educative aim is to foster the inquisitive spirit.
J. Arthur Thomson

The educative value of manual activities and of laboratory exercises, as well as of play, depends upon the extent in which they aid in bringing about a sensing of the meaning of what is going on. In effect, if not in name, they are dramatizations.
John Dewey
Image
All communication is like art. It may fairly be said, therefore, that any social arrangement that remains vitally social, or vitally shared, is educative to those who participate in it. Only when it becomes cast in a mold and runs in a routine way does it lose its educative power.
John Dewey
Image
Exercise of body and exercise of mind are supplementary, and both may be made recreative and educative.
John Lancaster Spalding
Image
The plays of children are nonsense, but very educative nonsense. So it is with the largest and solemnest things, with commerce, government, church, marriage, and so with the history of every man's bread, and the ways by which he is to come by it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
