American Legendary Life

Chapter 103: Pioneer Dewey



"Sorry, Charlie, I haven't come late?" Grant wiped the sweat from his forehead. On April day, his clothes were soaked in sweat.

"Don't be so nervous, Grant, it's just a trifle." Li Zitao laughed.

"What happened?" Grant saw that everyone was pushed to the side, and Grant asked in a low voice what happened.

"Mahadi, let's talk!" Let the rushed Mahathir explain what was going on, and Li Zitao gave a glance at the monk.

"Tell Paul that from today on, I don't want this to happen near the University of Chicago." Li Zitao said blankly.

"Understood, BOSS, I will talk to Paul in person." The monk nodded.

When the two returned, the matter had been explained clearly. Grant hoped Janet would return to the police station to testify with them.

"Charlie, what do you want to do with this matter? The kid is a minor, and if it is handed down to the court, it will only be criticism without itching." Grant had some headaches.

"Follow the normal procedures." Li Zitao smiled.

Now that he has decided to let Paul take responsibility for the safety of these places, bear children like this will definitely be educated, and I believe he will never forget.

"You will protect my safety, right?" Janet looked at Grant with some worry, and then turned back to Li Zitao.

"Monk, send two people to follow this..." Li Zitao asked with eyes.

"Janet." Janet didn't want to say her last name, it would remind her that she was married, "This is really unfortunate news."

"Follow Mrs. Janet and protect her from going home safely." Li Zitao did this not for the woman but for the children in her stomach.

No matter how cruel and dirty the adult world is, they should have nothing to do with children.

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Li, but I will leave Chicago tonight. If you come to New York in the future, please contact me to give me the opportunity to express my gratitude."

Janet took a business card from her purse, which was a simple name and phone, "Mrs. Bouvier."

"Goodbye." The business card was handed over to the monk and Li Zitao forgot about it. He didn't need to thank, but he didn't want an innocent baby to be hurt.

Now what he has to do is go to the University of Chicago to accomplish his purpose of this trip.

However, Janet getting in the car remembered this matter in her heart, even considering the possibility between her eldest daughter and Li Zitao.

"Hopefully, he will be more romantic for a few years. When my little princess Jacqueline Zhang is big, they will be the perfect pair." Janet thought about it.

Although her little princess Jacqueline was only 3 years old, but who can tell the world's affairs clearly, in 12 years, the fingertips passed.

"It doesn't matter if you get married. It's time to test whether he has a divorce plan. Isn't such a good person more likely to show his achievements in a few more marriages?"

Who made Li Zitao so young?

Even after 12 years, he is only 30 years old. It is the golden age of vigour, but what will his achievements be like?

In this way, Li Zitao was included in the ranks of'son-in-law' by Janet.

This was still when she found out that the other party saw nothing in her eyes.

If Li Zitao had hinted before, this lady who loves luxury life will seriously consider whether to start a second marriage now, buy one get two free!

University of Chicago, in front of the vocational college building.

"Uncle Elan." Seeing Elan standing in front of the building, Li Zitao speeded up and gave him a hug enthusiastically.

"Hah, you are still so strong." Elan smiled and patted his spine, introducing to the thin middle-aged man next to him: "This is Charlie, a great kid."

"Charlie, he is my old friend, John Dewey." Elland said.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Dewey." Li Zitao took the initiative to extend his hand, Dewey also smiled and gestured.

After being polite, the three of them walked side by side toward the college. Dewey asked first: "Charlie, listen to Ellan, do you want to introduce my experimental teaching method?"

The only cause that can draw Dewey's attention is education. As for power and money, he is not very concerned about this pioneer of modern education.

To put it more bluntly, this John Dewey cares more about fame.

"Yes, Mr. Dewey, it is undeniable that there are all kinds of discrimination and oppression in the national conditions of the United States. Of course, these situations are being changed."

"But the children don’t have so much time to wait, I want to build a mixed school, no matter what skin color, as long as they really want to gain knowledge,

Then the school will open the door to him, and we will formulate a perfect educational reward mechanism, including exempting tuition and miscellaneous fees for families in difficulty, and starting exchanges with famous European schools,

High scholarships to help students who need to realize their dreams and values. "

Seeing Dewey lower his head and thinking seriously, Li Zitao continued: "If this model succeeds, I will open branches in countries where there is a need,

Help more children acquire knowledge and change their lives and fate. "

The last sentence clearly moved Dewey. Although it is unclear whether there is selfishness in it, the ultimate goal is good.

It is like a distribution point opened by the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce. At first, it was to accumulate reputation for Li Zitao, so that he would have a good reputation, and he would not be scolded as rich.

But can you say that such a move is bad?

20 distribution points of materials, how many lives of the poor and homeless saved in the Great Depression, are these lives also false?

"Even if it is hypocritical goodwill, if he can persist for a lifetime, then he is a kind person." Li Zitao has always felt that this is a reasonable saying.

It is a hundred times and a thousand times stronger than those **** soul chicken soup.

If the world is full of hypocrites, as long as they can persevere for a lifetime, and dedicate 1 yuan every day, week or month, the world will be completely different.

Even those who only move their mouths are better than those who don't move.

At least their inadvertent encouragement will make people feel warm, instead of being the last straw to overwhelm the camel at a moment of despair.

"There are not so many teachers at Dewey School." Dewey had to tell the truth.

"How about this?" Li Zitao pondered: "We can make preparations first and recruit a group of young fresh graduates, who are more capable of accepting new things.

Let them serve as teaching assistants at Dewey School teachers and learn while helping them.

When the new semester comes, we will mix teachers and teaching assistants into two groups, a group responsible for the education of Dewey School and a group responsible for the formation of the new school’s education team.

The combination of new and old can ensure that they will not make mistakes in the education process, and also allow new teachers to grow quickly. What do you think of this idea? "

Dewey looked at him with interest and nodded, "Very good, and the Dewey educational thought you mentioned just now, Charlie, you gave me new inspiration."

"Oh, that's really great." Li Zitao couldn't help but feel good about him.

Although he didn't know his achievements in the previous life, Dewey was a true pioneer of modern education in the United States on the Blue Star.

Although his achievements were met with resistance by the old education system, but at the same time, there was a wave of restructuring debates in various countries, and the evaluations received were mixed.

In Li Zitao's view, Dewey's educational thinking is the cornerstone of building the future education system, and will eventually replace the current Chen Chenxiang cause, lacking a lively education method.

Whether it is his ‘child-centered theory,’ ‘education without aim,’ or the ‘education of life, growth, and experience,’ he advocates, it can be said to be trans-epoch.

Not to mention Li Zitao, even predators like Morgan and Rockefeller will give them the respect they deserve when they see such pioneers in education.

"By the way, listening to Uncle Elland said that Dewey School’s library is in poor condition, and children always have to queue in and out. I am willing to donate $100,000, which is a contribution."

Dewey had no reason to refuse such a proposal, so he stopped very formally, legs and toes, bowing deeply towards Li Zitao.

"Thank you for everything you have done for your education, Charlie, I will tell the children about it." Dewey said solemnly.

"This is my honor." Of course, you must leave a name for doing good deeds before a fool can refuse such a proposal.

In order to deepen Dewey’s impression, Li Zitao immediately said to the monk: “Remember to hand this over to the secretary’s office to allow Bechtel to redeploy staff as soon as possible.

Learning is the most precious time, and it can't be delayed because of anything~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This little guy is really unprofitable and early. "Elan, who has always been a transparent person, can't help laughing.

"In addition, I want to hire you as the permanent honorary principal of the new school. I don't know if this request will be too abrupt?" Li Zitao made the request while hot.

One is to take advantage of Dewey's fame, and the other is to cut off his idea of ​​intervening in management.

Regardless of whether he supports or contradicts his educational ideas, there will be attention if there is a dispute. Isn't that the case with Oscar and McDonald's?

In addition, as a permanent honorary principal, no matter how high his future achievements, Li Zitao has reason to exclude him from the top management.

Dewey is right in education, but it does not mean he is a nerd.

As soon as his thoughts turned, he understood Li Zitao's meaning and nodded happily: "This is my honor. I hope that one day in the future, I will be proud of it."

"I believe that this day will not be too far away." Li Zitao smiled and clenched his hand brightly.

After reaching an agreement with Dewey, Li Zitao wanted to invite him to dinner, but he refused it on the grounds that something was wrong with the school.

"Dewey is a real scholar, don't use your businessman's cleverness on him." He went to the restaurant car and Elan was talking about what he had just said.

"Yes, I'm a little abrupt." Li Zitao's posture was very low.

Not to mention Ellen’s help, just because Lawrence always calls for ‘Uncle’, he also has to respect Ellen.

"Relax, he is not a stingy person, he will fully support the things that are beneficial to education."

Seeing Li Zitao somewhat proud, Elan reminded again: "But I want to remind you that you must not make the school an elite aristocratic model, it will make him run counter to you."
